The feast is small but nourishing tonight class.
We are discussing Creation - myths and mysteries.

Please, tell me what you all think, and we will go from there

Alanna enters the room, spaghetti and coffee in tow. "In my world, we believe that Myrthos and the Great Mother Goddess created everything. The rest of the Gods and Goddesses also had a role though, and they govern the area of which they are master or mistress." Alanna toys with the cord around her neck. "Sir, I'm a healer, do you need any assistance?"

Im quite sure that I will survive, Alanna, but thank you for the offer...

Which of those Gods and Goddesses do you most closely identify with?

"The Great Mother Goddess." Alanna said without even thinking, then bit her lip, then remembered she was no longer disguised as a boy so that wasn't too weird anymore. So instead her hand went to play with the chord around her neck once more.

Tell me about her... what is it of Her in you that you see?
and what of Her do you still wish to become?

Alanna began fidling with the stone attached to the cord. "The Great Mother Goddess is a warrior, and a protector. She gives life and she keeps it wholy and precious. That is what I aspire to be, a woman warrior, the first in a century." She glanced up at Gandalf. "I'm also one of her chosen ones."

Explain that to me, please?

Alanna thought for a moment before answering. "Every once in a while, the Gods, Goddesses, whom ever decide it's time for change. The Mother saw in me someone who could make change occur. I'm a girl, living a boy's life, aspiring to a man's dreams." She shrugged.

Tell me about the dreams you aspire to, 100 words, next class.

Thank you Alanna.

Alanna jotted down her assignment on a piece of paper. Finally, something she actually wanted to do.

"Thank you, sir."

[gandalfglamdrin.livejournal.com]
