Chapter 96 Pelleta's Love
The flower petals slowly opened as I prepared myself for the new Goddesses\' entry into this world. When they did, nothing was there at first, but then I flinched.
*SNAP!*
The air inside the massive floor split open with a deafening snap that echoed loudly through the Hex-Comb. Then the crack widened, a beautiful green-skinned woman in a flowing green dress that had small Crystal Flowers growing from it.
"It seems that this Thyme a true Queen has Florally come to Green me," the Goddesses said to me, and I resisted my eye roll; whatever blessing this Goddess had, I wanted it for my people.
"Yes, I am Ashia, Queen of my people. I hope Lily Thistle not Stemmed you, but Iris to know your name," I said to the smiling Goddess.
"I would be Dandelion if I said that was the most Ranunculus thing I have heard. I am Pelleta, Goddess of Flowers, and while you are a bit Thorney around the Hedges, you do know the game," Pelleta said as she stepped down from her flower.
"I Rose to the Carnation, bit all Iris is Floral my Poppy-ple all Clover the Hive to have your blessing," I told Pelleta, and she screwed up her pretty face at me; I was starting to get good at puns, said no one intelligently anywhere, ever.
"What in Carnation was the Soil that just came from your Tulips?" Pelleta asked me with a strained look on her face; now I had her right where I wanted her!
"Is my Bee-guage making you Daisy? You had Bee-st Bee-lieve that Thistle do anything that will help with Garden my Hive!" I said defiantly while taking a step forward.
\'We approve,\' called hundreds of voices into my mind.
Was that just the Crystal Flowers giving me their approval? Before I could react to the question, the pressure that I had felt from Pelleta stopped, completely disappearing, and I was able to relax.
"So, you can also speak to my children, and they have spoken. If I were to deny you my blessing now, I would deny my own children, my love. You have won this time, little Bee, but I shall be ready when we meet next time. I grant you the Blessing of Pelleta\'s Love, may all your harvest be bountiful," Pelleta told me, and then the air cracked, making me flinch again, but then she was gone.
\'Our Queen!\' All the Crystal Flowers chanted softly in my mind as I turned to Messia, Talli, and her helper.
This was quite an unexpected meeting, but now I had another blessing and maybe another Goddess on my side. First, of course, I would have to talk to Beezli about this, but I was really unprepared for another round of unBee-lieveable puns.
"This is amazing, Ashia! You got to meet and do battle with the Mythical Plant Goddess, and WON! Not that I expected anything less from my Queen, but it was still INTENSE! I have learned so much! I am going to be stuck going over these notes for ages!" Talli said excitedly, and I looked over at her helper that was holding a large stack of notes and an ink bottle.
"Talli, how were you able to take notes? I was barely able to move while Punning it out with the Goddess! How were you able to take notes?!" I asked in disbelief.
p
I was about to ask what information, but I decided that I would just be asking for a lecture on things that weren\'t important to me. Not that I didn\'t think that the information would be helpful, but Talli would need to decode it and then get what she wanted out of it, then show me.
"Well, I am glad you were able to take notes, and I look forward to what you will discover," I said, and from there, we walked through the rest of the field that was glowing the same soft blue.
As I walked through the flowers, I held Messia\'s hand, and the other two trailed behind, but they were both so wrapped up in their work that we didn\'t notice them. This was a nice break, and hearing the thanks and praise from the flowers was good for my soul.
It was a different kind of calming than what I got from Serria; this was more of a soothing feeling. It was amazing to be able to see all the flowers change, and I would have to visit this place often; something about the flowers pulled at me.
"Thank you for showing me around what seems to Bee your new home now. I am happy that you have found a place to put your skills to work, and I am very proud of all that you have accomplished with helping to get the flowers blooming," I told Talli, and she started to blush.
"Thank you, I was worried at first, but when I found out about the seeds, I just knew that it was something that I could help with! So I promise to keep up all the hard work!" Talli told me with a bright smile, and I went over and gave her another hug before I turned back to Messia.
"Ready to go? I think we need to go up top now to see what else has been going on since I slept!" I said with a bright smile as I took Messia\'s hand.
"Yes, Pixe will be up top with Gamble right now, but it looks like she is going to be back to work soon," Messia said as people started to enter from the portal carrying weird bags with pointed tips.
I wanted to stay and watch them work, but I had things to do, and I would be coming back here often to visit. So, for now, I took Messia\'s hand and walked to the Honey Gate.
