Angel of Brittania

Prologue

Hi, everyone! Sorry I've been mainly focusing on new fics but I just wanted to get all of my fic ideas out before I continue them. Just so I don't forget. Anyways, let's start!!!

Skyworld

"Crap! I'm late!!"

Through the forum, the angel Pit kept on repeating this phrase over and over, as he ran towards the mission room. He ran past all of his subordinates, who are waved hi, and sprinted up the stairs. With a swift kick, he burst through the door, panting from all the running. However, waiting was not his usual goddess but someone else. She was short, with long blonde hair tied in a braid. Her dress was shin-length, colored in purple, red and pink, and decorated with aspects of plants: vines, branches, and flowers. In her hand, she held a scythe-like staff, which seemed to emanate power. This was Viridi, goddess of all nature.

"You're late," she said in an annoyed tone, crossing her arms.

"V-Viridi," Pit panted, still exhausted from all the sprinting. "W-why a-are you here?"

"She's here because I asked her, Pit," a melodic voice called.

In a flash of light, the goddess of light, Palutena, descended. Her green hair flowed majestically as she walked, a glowing sigil behind her shining light down on her. Her white dress, armor, and staff gave her the appearance of a warrior.

"She always makes the most impressive entrances," Viridi snarked.

"You see, Pit," Palutena said, ignoring Viridi's comment, "the gods need you. All gods."

"What do you mean, Lady Palutena?" Pit asks in alarm. The gods were powerful entities, usually not needing help unless facing beings of similar power. And for all the gods to need something would mean there's a threat of considerable size. "Is it the Aurum or something? Are they back?"

"No, they're definitely gone," Palutena said, "ever since we defeated them, there haven't been any signs of any more coming from space."

"Well that's good," Pit sighed in relief.

"Actually," Viridi said, "I'd actually prefer the Aurum to come back rather than what's coming."

"Wait, what?!" Pit shouted.

"Allow me to explain," Palutena said. "You're familiar with the multiple pantheons of gods, correct? Well in a far off land called Brittania, there exists another pantheon of mainly female deities. Their leader is-"

"An annoying tart who is more trouble than she's worth," Viridi cut in.

"-known as the Supreme Deity," Palutena continued. "Three thousand years ago, that pantheon went up against a powerful group of demons, whose king matched the Supreme Deity's power. This battle raged until the pantheon teamed up with three other races to seal the demons; however, this led to the pantheon itself to fade away, lacking the powers to keep their physical forms."

"Physical forms?" Pit asked in confusion.

"It's how we manifest in this reality, Pit," Viridi explained. "You don't think Palutena always looks like this. She just takes the form of something that humanity can understand, though her true form is much more. What she truly is, is much... bigger."

"You're one to talk," Palutena smiled. "Goddess of nature."

They both have a little laugh while Pit has a look of confusion on his face.
