"Aksa Mom?... I'm sure you know or at least have heard her name... Aksara's mother is Gaia... The Goddess Gaia"
"..."

The whole room immediately became silent after Taufik said that.
Because, after all, what Taufik said sounds very hard to believe; what we are talking about here is the Goddess Gaia.
Which if from the Knowledge of Mankind is the Goddess of the Earth, the mother of all life. She is one of the primordial deities, or first gods, who emerged from the cosmic void called Chaos. Gaia gave birth to Uranus (the sky), Pontus (the sea), and Ourea (the mountains) without a partner. Later, with Uranus, Gaia mothered the Titans, the Cyclopes, and the Hecatoncheires (giants with a hundred hands).
That is what Humans know about Gaia.
And just now, Taufik admitted that he was the husband of the goddess, which, of course, sounded unreasonable to the others.

"... You're joking, right?"
