The rental car was driving at the maximum allowed speed, music coming from the speakers as it and the two passengers in it were animatedly talking and about to reach their destination, crossing a major bridge that only few in the world will able to see. Cabrakan and Camazotz were of course one of those few, as gods of the Mayan pantheon. It always felt a bit odd when Caça drove this road, as the bridge was long, giving a rather beautiful and all-encompassing view of ocean. Like you were driving on the water itself. This time though, the light smile on his lips was definitely not that view. It was instead caused by probably who would call his closest friend, brother even. Cabrakan. After many years, decades, centuries, they were living in the same place again from this day forward until their paths diverged again. It was all thanks to Cabrakan having found himself looking for a more, perhaps quiet or peaceful lifestyle for a little while. Or maybe he was just bored with humans. Regardless, he looked for a safe haven and Caça could provide. Namely by suggesting for his brother to move to the very place he was living himself, Mount Phoenix. An island for gods and demi-gods to live. If he knew Cabrakan, he knew the man also liked his fun though... And he didn’t mind him bringing it closer towards him.
The bridge went on but eventually ended and soon they were driving into the city of Mount Phoenix. The bat god decided this was a good time to make a quick tour around and point out some things on the island. The university, the different areas of the city like where to go for a night out or where to go for good food, and also the more quiet side with the forest and of course mountains. Which Cabrakan, god of the mountains would surely appreciate seeing. It was probably a weird sight to most of the people who knew Caça. As he was laughing and smiling in the car sitting next to this new man. This side of him was reserved for those as close to him as Cabrakan, those who really put him at ease. Simply by their relationship that was as old as time as well as their shared Mayan heritage. Neither needed to pretend or hold back on anything, and they could always trust on one another. A true friendship.
With exchanged jokes about Cabrakan his biceps resembling the mountaints, Camazotz his ‘bird friends’ in the sky, the tour came to an end and the two gods arrived at the complex holding that apartments of the Mayans. Camazotz helped the other god bring his bagage up to the top floor, where the apartments for the gods were. Once at the door, number 4, Caça turned to his friend with a smile. “That’s you. I arranged that our apartments are next to each other, so i’m living in number 5.” He pointed at the next door over, the apartment he had moved into last week as he had previously occupied number 2. Sadly, number 3 and 1 had both already been taken. “Let’s go in then so you can get used to your new place.” A lopsided grin played on his lips as a strong hand patted a much stronger back. Cabrakan clearly hadn’t let down on the muscles to this day. As expected of the Mayan god of mountains.
