Siasa'busara made her way toward a local watering hole, looking far less jumpy than she had even a few short weeks ago. She'd grown more comfortable in the mortal realm since her forceful ejection from the haven some time before. She was not so comfortable, however, that she didn't remain...attentive to her surroundings. And so she was a short distance away when she spotted the other goddess dozing in the branches of a tree.
She hesitated for a moment, then, with a self-directed nudge, slowly made her way closer, clearing her throat when she had drawn close enough to be heard easily. "Greetings," she said it easily, pitching her voice low enough that if the other was in a deep slumber, she would hopefully not disturb her, even as she found herself hoping that this goddess was one of her more...benign fellows.

Smiling, the expression unconsciously welcoming, Siasa nodded. She was young, but had heard that many of their kind chose to hibernate at times, whether it be from boredom, or exhaustion. Since her realm was all about experience, and the learnings that came from it, it wasn't something she foresaw herself doing anytime soon - but who could know what the future might hold?
"I am a fairly recent arrival from the haven...I came into being there, and had not yet decided to make my way to the mortal realm when I was...expelled forcefully from it." she said, never one to hoard information. Hesitating, she continued. "And while I don't claim that I know what the weather usually is like, down here, it has seemed rather...peculiar? Odd things in the sky, to say the least..." It was the kind of thing that she had no basis to even guess at, other than something huge was going on, and likely amongst deities with far greater power than her own.
"I haven't heard anything more direct than that, though, so my understanding has been...limited to what I've been able to see, or have experienced myself."

Siasa blinked, before nodding politely. It was a mindset she didn't understand - she was cautious, but also curious, because how else did one learn from one's experience, if not by asking questions, or pondering it?
But then, not everyone was the same, and the other goddess had a different domain - and while she couldn't be sure, from what she'd experienced (whether directly remembered or otherwise), a god's realm certainly seemed to influence how they...responded to a situation, to some degree..
"I just hope it isn't the gateway into something more...dramatic." she murmured, although privately she felt that the god's haven being inaccessible was pretty dramatic.
"Siasa'busara...but please, call me Siasa...and the pleasure is mine." she replied, starting and flushing slightly - how rude, to have not offered her own name sooner!
Giving in to curiosity, she found herself daring a question, after a moment's hesitation. "You mentioned being the goddess of mothers - does that usually involve your reaching out to actual mothers, or as more of a substitute, for those who are lacking one? Or does it depend on circumstance?"
Not having memories of her own parent in this lifetime, she found she was curious - because the two aspects were very different, at least in her eyes.

Siasa nodded - truthfully, it sounded as though the other goddess' realm required more...active participation, and connection, with the mortals she influenced.
Although her last ability...sounded deceptive, and she wondered if it sometimes harmed more than it helped? She took a moment, considering how the mortals she'd seen might react to an encounter of that nature.
"That sounds...challenging." she finally said, her tone thoughtful. "And given how short their time is, I can only imagine how demanding the needs of all of the mothers who have a need of your presence might be. Although I presume that it can also be extremely rewarding, even if it is...draining."
Given her own tendency, thus far, to observe the mortals she'd encountered from a distance, she couldn't help but wonder how rewarding (or frustrating) it might be to deal with them face-to-face, instead.

Siasa nodded again, but slowly. She knew that many of their kind hibernated for periods of time, but had no memory of having done so herself, in any of her incarnations. "I'm sure that those who you're able to help appreciate it, even if they don't always express it." she said, somewhat diplomatically.
Following the other goddess' gaze with her own, her expression shifted, turning more serious. "I do, too. I confess, I'm worried as to what exactly is going on, and the longer that things seem...strange, the more concerned I become."
Hopefully whatever it was resolved itself soon...and without anything more catastrophic than had already taken place. After looking up at the sky for a few more moments, she turned back to Nyasambe, speaking as she did so. "Now that you've awakened, where do you think you'll go? Or do you usually just....wait until you feel that someone needs you?"
