The park was the most prominent place of natural energies and would serve as a home base for the Earth Goddess as she went about her mission in New York. What was that mission? Well, to bring nature back to the Big Apple. One of the first things she'd need to do was get rid of the horrible cement that was suffocating the earth and the flora. With that in mind, Gaea set out to clean the streets. Literally. With a flick of da her wrist, Gaea sent avenue Q flying high. Cars crashed into the sidewalks while citizens looked on in awe and horror. One particular human snapped a picture of Gaea, causing a bright flash to emit from his phone, startling the goddess. She had thought lightning had struck, but didn't sense her grandchild, Zeus. Had humans obtained the power to do such things? With that little box of metal? Gesturing with her hands, she caused a pillar of earth to catapult the human, causing him to drop his phone. A patch of grass grew in the time it took for the smartphone to fall where it landed safely. The patch of grass then came to Gaea, presenting the phone on a pillow of blades of grass. Curious, she touched it, and was then blinded by another flash of light. "What in the many realms is this... this... thing?!" Gaea roared, rubbing her eyes.

Alice was floating around in the internet when a particularly interesting picture came in--- apparently some sort of earth-kinetic was wreaking havoc in New York, according to the caption. Curious, she followed the path from where the picture came from and exited a phone to a scene of veritable disaster.
..she frowned. There was not much she could do here, she surmised; why can't villains always use technology instead of having all sorts of shenanigans? There were even mutants and magicians and last she heard, ancient gods mucking about. In the face of so many threats, even with her powers, she felt most incapable. Already there were people dead, from what she could discern from this distance...
...ah, right, the owner of this phone... well, the one who was holding it... was a woman? It was strange, she seemed relatively unperturbed of what was happening... well, nothing was happening again, quite yet, although the action might have moved from this location... she looked motherly, but there was also a frustrated expression on her face as she fiddled with the device that she had just come from. Should she try talking to her? She might be in danger if she stayed around. She'd have to go in the phone to talk, though---
---little did she know that she might just be visible to the woman she was observing.

[attr="class","blue"] [attr="class","purple"] [attr="class","pink"] [attr="class","game"] [attr="class","gamelyrics"]Came into this world Momma's little girl And momma made a Soldier out of me Tough girl is what I had to be [attr="class","gamebody"]Her eyes no longer dazed by the flash of light, Gaea was surprised to see a human so close to her. So close she seemed to be observing her. A frail little thing, not even a century old; which was perfect. Perhaps this young human knew what the contraption that was confusing her was. "Maiden, come forth!" Gaea boomed, gesturing in her general direction. Unbeknownst to the Great Goddess, the girl she was calling forward was not physically there. She was but a spirit bound to electricity and the internet: neither of which Gaea was particularly knowledgable on. Her summoning did more than catch the girl's attention, though, it gave her substance. As the embodiment, and one responsible, for life on Earth, Gaea held great power over that aspect of the universe. For this reason, she tends to expel spiritual energy constantly but it's usually absorbed by the earth which explains the abundant flora and fauna that seems to grow where she steps. So when Gaea called upon the ghost girl, the mere act of acknowledging her existence breathed a small amount of life into the girl. Not enough to allow her to physically affect the world around her, but enough for the phantom girl to become visible to the average mortal, albeit with an ethereal glow. Gaea, however, was too busy to notice the state of life the girl was in as she was too focused on the metal box before her. The All Mother cautiously prodded it again, and was once more, stunned by a flash of light, [attr="class","pink"] [attr="class","purple"] [attr="class","blue"] [attr="class","cred"]VEL OF WW[newclass=.blue]width:400px;background-color:#6F6D44;height:11px;[/newclass] [newclass=.purple]width:400px;background-color:#9EB04C;height:8px;[/newclass] [newclass=.pink]width:400px;background-color:#CBDF9A;height:5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.game]width:350px;background-color:#fcfcfc;padding:25px;[/newclass] [newclass=.gamelyrics]font-size:8px;font-family:verdana;color:#9fb2bb;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:1px;[/newclass] [newclass=.gamebody]font-size:10px;font-family:verdana;color:#777;line-height:15px;text-align:justify;padding:20px;[/newclass] [newclass=.gamebody b]color:#9fb2bb;[/newclass] [newclass=.gametag]opacity:0.8;text-align:center;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred]text-align:center;font-size:8px;color:rgb(132, 132, 132);letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;margin-top:5px;[/newclass] [newclass=.cred a]color:rgb(132, 132, 132);font-size:8px;letter-spacing:1px;font-family:verdana;[/newclass]

'Maiden?'
She looked around. It was... not like there was... anyone else around here. She looked back at the woman with the booming voice, who seemed all sorts of confused with the phone in her hand. She looked at her eyes, the general direction they were looking at. For a moment she forgot that she was actually in what could be considered a warzone, hope filling her in an instant, even though caution tempered it, not willing to completely believe.
"Wait... are you talking to me?"
Slowly, she approached, and her eyes drifted to her hands as they swung--- wait, was she that translucent? She was more... kinda transparent, even to her eyes. And... wait, why did she have feet? She tested the ground... nope, her newfound soles still couldn't feel it. Still, there was... there seemed to be a radiance to her being. Something had changed... and the only suspect was the woman, the only person before her.
"Um... did you do this?" she tentatively asked, referring to her slightly altered state, and then changed her mind... the woman seemed to have a more pressing problem.
"...do you need help with that phone, by any chance?"

Was this it? Was this the end of her existence? Had her children finally figured out a way to destroy her? Probably not, but the device was more most definitely annoying her. Perhaps the young woman that Gaea had summoned would be of some use to her. Taking another look at her, mostly due to the girl's question. The young thing was a spirit, her body gone for who knows how long, and yet she was bound to the mortal plane. To what she was bound to, that would require a little concentration on her part. Expanding her consciousness to the spiritual level, Gaea felt the girl's connection to some information construct created by humans... What in the world was that? She was brought back to the moment at hand to the maiden's second question. "Phone?" She asked, repeating the word. Gaea squinted her eyes in suspicion and asked, "What is this 'phone' you speak of, girl? Do you mean this contraption that lays before me?" The Great Goddess said, motioning towards the metal box before her. Had she forgotten the shade's previous question about her newfound more substantial status? No, Gaea simply didn't care enough to answer.

The woman was... strange. Every time the phone activated its flash--- it must be the sort with a camera--- oh, who was she kidding, this wasn't like where she was from, all the phones people use here have cameras--- she recoiled, as if the idea of a flash was completely foreign to her. And then her questions... apparently she didn't know what a phone was, too.
"Ah, yes." she ended up saying, mostly befuddled. "That... 'contraption' is a phone." What sort of person would not know what a phone was? Well, there were all sorts of people running around in the world right now with powers... would some magician from some secret society not know of technology? She'd heard of Fidelia, the Initiative hero, but could there be similar people transplanted from other times by some circumstance?
"It's a device you use to communicate with other people from great distances." she elaborated. "And, well, it has other functions as well, like the flash you've been triggering." she supplied helpfully.
"I guess you don't know much about technology?" she ventured. She didn't really think the woman ignored her question; if anything, she thought the lady was mostly confused to do so. She'll probably ask again once things simmer down.
