After completing their journey, the Little Pope and the Hero gained much.
New ways to utilize the goddess's powers, a glimpse into the myriad social issues and moral shifts of a futuristic city, prophecies about a new age's culture, and—
“Finn, could you get me that shampoo… Oh, right, we don’t have any.”
An overwhelming sense of reverse culture shock.
The young lady, Little Pope Betio, found herself engulfed in feminine despair within a luxurious grand bath. As a Pope, her position was unimaginably lofty, and the bathing facilities she enjoyed were among the most opulent in the world.
Particularly because past archbishops had poured exorbitant funds into leisure-related ventures for their personal pleasure, the grand bath lacked for nothing.
Behold: hot water flowing from a lion-head sculpture, fragrant oils, floating petals, and buoyant trays designed so one could dine while bathing. If there were a paradise on earth, surely it was this.
