If the brown gladiator sandal slamming outside his dorm wasn't enough of a sign, the single sock was; the other woman's thigh unadorned except for a single ring. All of this through a "thin" crevice in swaying cloth, which was like a canyon. As the giantess entered from the game, the hefty white tarp cloaked surrounding homes around the campus, its golden trim like regal curtains.

 

Palutena, the green-haired goddess. And her imposing aura, as she overlooked the real world, with otherworldly glamor... Was contrasted heavily with her sticking her tongue out and tapping her head, right around her laurel. It made her medallion bounce above, light gleaming off it and to the streets.

 

"Bleh! My bad, subjects. Excuse me! Excuse me, mortals!"

 

People squealed, rushing from their homes - as her legs swept through them, turning faces of the structures to rubble slides. She sighed as she tried to move out, and lean over to help; only leading to more destruction as her backside filled Blake's view.

 

He thankfully made it out the door, as his whole room lost its structural integrity. His only sense of the outside was continued screaming, and scrunching noises. A few of the campus walls started losing their integrity as he rushed out, panting.

 

"Dear, all this time not interfering in human affairs, ruined! I can't feel any angel's presence, either..." Crunch. "Oh - sorry, forgot you! Here, make a path for me. Mhh. Urgh, I've seen vegetables move faster than you - let me help..."

 

As he left the door, he was greeted with a sight of entire streets parting from a wave of her scepter; shops slipping apart like sliding doors at her touch. She took a few steps through the now-empty path, right where his folks lived...

 

"Palutena!" Blake yelled up to the towering figure.

 

Her green hair swept over her exposed shoulder, as she gave a warm smile. "Finally! A mortal who recognizes authority." She flicked a finger - and Blake found himself lifted up, right to her smiling lips. "Would you happen to know what happened here? There's a lot of angels who need me right now... And I'd like to avoid sending any of you sweet, delicate mortals to the afterlife."

 

Blake swallowed. Should he really reveal he was behind it? She seemed understanding, but - he had messed this up. By dabbling in dark powers. The kind a lot of paragons of light and virtue might not take kindly to.
