Another Quest from the system

Gaya, usually a whirlwind of fiery words and quick comebacks, stood silently, the weight of the griffin's words heavy upon her. Michael, sensing her distress, gently pressed her shoulder. 

"What did it say to you?" he asked, his voice filled with concern.

With a small, hesitant voice unlike her usual bold tone, Gaya relayed the griffin's harsh accusations. 

"It called me a failure... as a goddess... as a potential mother," she murmured, her usual confidence faltering.

In response, Michael just looked into her eyes.

"Listen to me, Gaya," he began, his voice steady and reassuring. 

"Before you are a goddess, you are Gaya. The fierce, foul-mouthed, bratty snakey we all know and love. This isn't you. You always have a comeback. No one, not even a griffin, can render you speechless."
