Hehehe, hello dear author.
I have a somewhat peculiar request for Poseidon.
Let's say that at a meeting or party some time after Ragnarok, Amaterasu arrives with a miko assisting her, which the goddess treats as her daughter and as soon as she sees Poseidon she does her best to prevent Poseidon from noticing the priestess.
Since Amaterasu knows the story of Medusa and this special human is like a daughter to her. The miko is from a modern era, but she had a peculiar childhood.
Since she and/or she was born, she was consecrated to the Grand Shrine of Amaterasu, being the only woman among her brothers. Her parents only visited her at the temple to demand perfection, asking the monks and superior priestesses to leave her in isolation if she did not meet their expectations to the letter, the monks could not oppose since her family was of high social hierarchy and very rich.
Basically, she suffered mental and sometimes physical damage from the scars left from training her with weapons related to the sun goddess.
And it was at dawn, while he was serving his punishment in isolation, that Amaterasu appeared to him, and lamented everything that his followers had done. From that day on, the goddess promised that she would always be with her, and basically Amaterasu was the one who he would gossip while they hung out in isolation.
she y/n she died defending the temple from a too powerful yokai, and Amaterasu collected her soul and performed her funeral personally, as well as driving her y/n's family out of her lands.
For this reason Amaterasu is so jealous of y/n, especially against Poseidon due to the tyrant of the seas' fetish for virgin priestesses.
But surely Poseidon is worth half a peach and somehow he takes the miko to his domain to try to woo her, and y/n knowing that he will not beat Poseidon in a fight, he always evades him saying that he is not interested in being with a married man (Amphitrite) while trying to find a way to escape every day.
And Amaterasu is about to start a war against Hades, since the latter stands in the way of the sun goddess breaking Poseidon's face.
-Your life was only better after you died.
-It was a sad truth, but a truth, nonetheless. You were the only daughter born to a high society family with four older brothers and one younger brother.
-To your parents, you were useless, as only boys mattered to them, sons to carry on their lineage.
-They got rid of you the first chance they had but did it in a way where nobody would accuse them of being bad parents, they gave you to the Ise Jingu, the holy Shinto shrine of Amaterasu, where the goddess is rumored to live, an honorable fate.
-Your life became nothing but chores and going to school, only being able to attend through middle school, the mandatory educational requirements in Japan.
-However, you worked hard, proving yourself to the High Priestess and the priests who oversaw the temple grounds, and you were conscripted to become a priestess yourself.
-Your family benefited from your promotion, using it as publicity for them and their sons that their only daughter was devoted to a life serving in a temple as a priestess.
-However, this came at a price, due your parents being so wealthy, giving massive donations and getting many other high society families to donate large amounts, their instructions were clear: you had to be perfect, no mistakes, and if any were made, you were to be locked away and punished.
-Unable to risk the donations, the High Priestess accepted the terms.
-You tried your best, being diligent with your work so you would make any mistakes, but their constantly watching eyes, even the smallest mistake had them throwing you into a small isolated room with no windows, sometimes after whipping the tops of your hands so you would learn.
-You struggled with their treatment, sometimes punishing you by not feeding you for days, isolating you, you were quickly beginning to look sick, but those in charge were too blinded by their greed.
-You could only stare in the darkness of the room, no windows to illuminate anything, the only source of light being the sun peeking through the small cracks.
-A hand on your head startled you, flinching in fear as you could barely move, turning your heard to see the most beautiful woman you have ever seen, glowing as if the was the sun herself.
-You eyes were wide and full of tears as she pulled you into her arms, weeping softly as she held you, âHow could they hurt someone so young- so small.â
-You instantly knew this was Amaterasu herself, your own tears welling as you broke down, sobbing into her chest, but she didnât berate you, she just let you cry, giving you the soft affection that you so desperately wanted.
-From that day on, Amaterasu was always with you, but nobody could see her but you, as she said they were not worthy to see her.
-She had healed your wounds, kept you warm at night, became a friend, a mentor, and a mother to you, doting on you so gently.
-When she had to leave you for a short while, you were terrified, clutching her kimono, which broke her heart, but she promised to return to you.
-Without her divine protection, which had shielded your mistakes from the eyes of those in charge of the temple, so you wouldnât be punished, it was like a demon took over the temple, tainting all those who resided.
-When Amaterasu returned, she could only stare in horror, seeing you bloody and broken body, whipped viciously, your hands bound behind your back, seeing the priestess and priests were the ones harming you.
-In one act of Divine Punishment, Amaterasu struck the temple with a ball of fire, immediately igniting it.
-She watched them all flee, leaving you behind, her heart aching as you passed, but she immediately pulled your soul out of your body, cradling it close as you woke up, completely healed, floating above the burning temple.
-You were in disbelief that you had died, but at the same time, you never felt happier, as you could never be hurt by them again.
-The temple only had minor damage, the fire department working quickly, but Amaterasu made sure to reveal your body, which was only minorly burned, showing the abuse you had been put through.
-The public was in an uproar, furious that those in charge had treated the little miko so harshly, so cruelly, then it came into light of your familyâs bribery to the temple, paying them to treat you like this, as nothing but perfection would be accepted.
-You were in awe, holding onto Amaterasu as you watched your family lose everything, being shamed and being forced to flee Japan to start anew.
-You harbored no feelings for your family, no remorse for them, as they were the ones that did this to you, they did this to themselves.
-In Valhalla you had so much freedom, getting to explore around the Shinto pantheon, meeting warriors from history, and with Amaterasu by your side, you go to meet other gods as well, many who were disgusted by the way you, a sixteen-year-old girl, had been treated by adults, least of all holy figures that watched over temples.
-Amaterasu doted on you like you were a daughter, not a miko, as you were considered a demi-god of sorts, as you were considered a holy maiden. You didnât mind either way, you liked helping your new mother out, doing simple chores, delivering paperwork around the pantheon for her.
-You had never been happier than with this new role in the afterlife, in Valhalla.
-It was at a massive party where you got to meet so many other gods and notable humans, a celebration for the salvation of humanity, as the gods have decided to work with humanity to help them better themselves, what they should have done in the first place.
-You were wearing a traditional miko outfit, red hakama pants with a white shirt, and a large red bow tying your hair back in a low ponytail, remaining by your mother goddess.
-Many were surprised to meet a holy maiden that was so young, but most were nice to you, many of the humans enjoyed speaking with you, as you asked them questions about their past as you knew their history.
-Amaterasu grabbed your wrist, pulling you behind her as a man approached you both, you peeked out, hearing your mother call this man Poseidon, a glare on her face, as she knew the story of Medusa, of what he did to a priestess of Athena.
-He wasnât going to be allowed near you.
-However, her intense protectiveness is what made Poseidon want to see you more, to know more about you, wanting to know why you were so special to the sun goddess.
-When you were out delivering papers a few days later, Amaterasu was beside herself when she realized you had gone missing, snatched away from the pantheon.
-She immediately knew where to go, heading right for the Greek pantheon, with Susanoo and Tsukuyomi tried to hold her back from waging an all-out war between the two pantheons.
-She was correct however, as you had been taken by Poseidon, spirting you away to his palace in the Greek pantheon, as he was curious about you, wanting to see why you were so special.
-You were scared, as you didnât know where you were, a powerful god had kidnapped you, and you knew you couldnât fight against him and you couldnât shake the feeling that this man was dangerous, he made you uneasy.
-Amaterasu told you about Poseidon, and about Medusa, whom you remember reading about back on earth in history class, how she was a priestess and he raped her, and she was turned into a gorgon.
-She wanted you to be safe as she was afraid that he would come after you in the same way, despite being married.
-Poseidon was quickly infatuated with you, when you asked to go back home to your mother, soon moving on to demanding him, refusing his advances.
-He didnât want to force you, he wanted to woo you, so you would come on your own free will, that way he would be safe from Amaterasu and the other gods.
-You refused all his advances, âYouâre married! Iâm not going to get with a married man! And Iâm still only a teenager!â but with each refusal, he grew more and more infatuated.
-When he heard your mother was looking for you, he locked you in a lavish room in a tower, you could see out the windows, but you were trapped, unable to escape while Poseidon went to assure your mother that he didnât have you.
-Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon had their hands full with Amaterasu, who was ready to launch a full out attack on them, knowing that Poseidon had you somewhere.
-Susanoo called for The Seven Lucky Gods, to search for you while he and Tsukuyomi were trying to prevent a massive war.
-You were trying to tie every piece of cloth you could together, to make a rope to throw out the window so you could climb down and escape, needing to get back to your mother.
-You were terrified, every inch of you was shaking as you shimmed down your makeshift rope until you heard, âY/N!â
-You gasped, seeing Ebisu who was rushing towards you on the ground below, seeing you escaping from a high tower.
-You slipped, losing your grip and you fell quite a ways before you managed to grab onto the rope again, halting yourself but you cried out in pain as Ebisu shouted out your name again.
-You made it to the ground, letting the rope go and falling into his arms as you felt him touch your waist and you were instantly in tears, your arms wrapped around his neck as you sobbed, having been so scared.
-Ebisu wasnât the greatest at comforting others, but he held you tightly, furious that Amaterasu was right, Poseidon had taken you, and he had been hiding it from everyone, including his brothers who were trying to defend him as they didnât know any better.
-When the other Seven Lucky Gods walked in, all furious, Zeus was quick to ask what their interruption was all about before Ebisu stepped forward, you in his arms princess style, as your arms were still wrapped around his neck, not wanting to let him go.
-Instantly all attention turned to Poseidon who looked furious that you were not in the lovely room he had prepared for you, his brothers angry as well, as they had been defending him, only to find out Amaterasu knew what she was talking about.
-Showing her intimidating side for once, shocking everyone in attendance, even you, the heat that was quick to envelop the room was stifling as she spoke, glaring hard, âI will not hesitate to dry your oceans, Sea God, if you ever even look at my daughter again. There will be no mercy a second time.â
-She also threatened Zeus and Hades, who were quick to agree with her, that they were to punish their brother for not only kidnapping you, but also lying about you being hidden away.
-They ended up calling Aphrodite and her son Eros to use an arrow on Poseidon to lose his infatuation with you, but he was to be watched closely.
-Ebisu was quickly blushing, defensive against everyone once you all arrived back to the Shinto pantheon, your home, as you didnât want to let him go, and Amaterasu cooed on how cute he looked, shouting at her, âOI! Iâm not cute!!â which caused a lot of laughter to ring throughout the pantheon.
-Amaterasu kept you close for the next few days, by your choice more than hers, as you felt too nervous to go anywhere without her, which made her sympathize with you, doting on you and reassuring you that he would never come after you again, if he didnât want to risk his life.
-You cuddled your mother, laying your head on her lap, making her giggle as she brushed her hands through your hair, doting on you, seeing that you were so happy to be there with her, safe and sound from everything.
-That is until you visited the Norse pantheon and Brunnhilde took you flying on her winged horse, giving your mother a slight panic attack, worried about you.
-She knew that she would need to let you grow up, both emotionally and mentally, knowing she couldnât keep you by her side forever, but she always prayed to you that you would always come home to her, no matter what.
