Really?

Okay, the first hour of this was cute, but really do you know how hard it is to tell your commanding officer you were late to a drill because you had to answer an email? Thanks for the K.P. Duty. What is this anyway, some kind of joke?

Oh, dear, sorry to hear that. Things should calm down as you get settled in.

Anyway! I'm Alan Cleary. I'm a high school English teacher. The kids call me Coach or Big Al--I'm not really picky. I'm sure you've got a lot of questions, though!

Good. If it happens again, It might mean even more trouble for me. You're right though, I do have a lot of questions. Like how did I get selected for this little fan club thing?

I'm afraid you were born for it, same as the rest of us. It takes longer for some than others to realize it, though.

I'm also known as Ogma of the Celts.

Yeah I guess I'm one of the unlucky ones, finding out late in the game. At least I know now.

I'm Shakti, also known as Sekhmet, an Egyptian goddess.

Ah, very nice to meet you! And we've had some who haven't known themselves at all upon their arrival. At least you're taking it well.

A war goddess will certainly be welcome. I do prefer using my mental strengths over my physical ones, but I was no slouch when it came to battle back in the day.

Well, reincarnation at least is something I can grasp. Plus it makes some sense given what I've had a chance to look into, plus what people have been telling me.

I'm afraid I know nothing of other pantheons. Call it a cultural fault. I grew up hindu and while we aren't against other religions, I just never really learned about them, if you know what I mean.

I hope I won' have to be a war goddess though, even if that is my calling.

Most of us have a variety of aspects in our divine selves. Being reborn is a chance to reshape your destiny, so you can do what feels right to you.

I do recommend getting to know at least the basics. Fortunately, there are many wonderful resources available to do just that!

Yeah I agree. Ever reincarnation is a chance to better ourselves and to gain a better dharma.

I don't have much free time to look into it yet, just a little poking here and there. But so far I am beginning to get a better understanding. I just don't want to get anyone too curious about my sudden change in interests.
