In any case, the result is that less and less do you have to personally do anything for your divinity and influence to take effect. Before you needed to personally interact with people on a one-to-one basis, to heal them by your hands, and you needed to personally go out on the lake and work for the waters to become blessed. Now by your heightened divinity, simply sitting your throne or lying in bed, your mere presence is enough for your godhood to imbue the land. From the hearts of your people, to the wind through the trees and the waters across the sands, the perceptive or the faithful will see you in everything in the world around them. And when you are in everything, you can control everything.
So much so that the lines and rules of divinity, the specifics of your aspects and being limited to them, may start to become a little blurry... after all, you are capturing the divine aspect of Leadership for your unborn child, who's to say you couldn't capture other aspects for yourself?
<span class="mu-r">"The whole river as the moat, or an island? What do you think?"</span> you twirl your hair while carelessly reclining across your throne, considering the issue as simply as you would consider breakfast.
<span class="mu-b">"I would think... more defense is always a good thing Sedjet, but if it becomes a problem with access to the town, the castle itself."</span> Darry suggests, and would you look at that, he stopped demeaning you with 'Little Goddess' now. Seems he too can't suspend his disbelief anymore.
Well it really is your decision to make now, for how easy a task it would be for you, with your ever-growing power. Before there was need of mortal work, and time and effort on your behalf, and shifting the rivers was different as you are not a water goddess so you could only rely on the ebb and flow based around fertility. Now though that your divinity is in the very waters, you could control the rivers as if they were your own arms, and the lake your body. How easy it would be, in a night or a week, to just redirect the river and encircle Bexley or to shift the lake entirely to create an island for the town. You can see reasons for both so the ultimate decision is yours.
Either way, it surely won't take another season to complete.

<span class="mu-r">"Oh, this is nice! I haven't seen these rooms before!"</span>
<span class="mu-s">"For sure your grace, in the Menaji style as you wish. We had our difficulties before but things are returning to schedule now it seems!"</span>
Of course in expectation for a child you desire new quarters, exploring and wandering about the castle more than usual. By your findings though things are changing more and more and there's definitely more space, more chambers being added and completed. All per Henri's design and oversight, with a constant supply of building materials coming and going from the castle... thanks largely to the beginnings of open trade with Hewe, now that a safe and secret travel route has been made.
