In fact, Peorth handled it fairly badly.
As a result, Peorth came into the temple screaming her head off.
"Sshhh," Urd said, trying to calm her down. "Calm down. It was just a quick teleport!"
"Tu est une sorciere! Diabolist!" Peorth shrieked loud enough to wake the dead. Or at least Megumi, who blinked blearily awake as Belldandy politely excused herself from speaking to Mara and walked over to calm down Peorth.
"Sshh, Silence s'il vous plait," Belldandy said softly. "C'est bien. C'est en securite." She quieted down the screaming former goddess and guided her over to sit next to the equally afflicted Mara.
"We're going to have to use a quick language spell for Peorth," Urd said. "Or else explain everything twice."
"You can explain everything NOW!" Megumi insisted angrily.
"I'm sorry Megumi, dear," Belldandy said. "This will just be a moment." Megumi winced as she realized that she had been yelling at Belldandy.
"Qu'est que cest votre appelle?" Peorth asked Mara.
"What did you say?" Mara asked.
"Qu'est que vous avez dit?" Peorth responded.
"I'm sorry," Mara said. "I don't speak Italian."
"Vous parlez en italien?" Peorth shot back.
"Excuse moi, s'il vous plait," Belldandy said politely. Peorth turned around to look at her in time for the middle Norn to cast a brief spell upon the woman.
"What was that?!" Peorth demanded. "What language am I speaking?!"
"Japanese," Belldandy explained. "It will not last more than a few minutes, however, so allow me to explain matters."
"Okay," Peorth said in a frightened tone of voice.
"Don't worry," Mara said. "I've been here since I woke up, these are very nice people."
"Okay this is the jist of it," Urd said, taking over. "You used to be Goddess 1st Class Peorth. And you used to be Demon 1st Class Mara."
"Goddess?"
"Demon?"
"Right," Urd said. "But somebody attacked you in such a way that left you mortal. Now since every demon has a double among the gods, when you turned mortal your double, Peorth turned mortal as well. Just like if one of you had died before, you both would have died."
This was accompanied by a gasp of shock from the two woman.
"You do not have to worry about that as it is," Belldandy said. "But, unfortunately, the transformation also corrupted your memory files, and we do not know if we can fix them. Until we do, you have no memory."
"And what about me?" Megumi asked.
"You were apparently on hand when Mara was attacked," Belldandy said apologetically. "You most likely were not expected."
"Wait a minute, this attack happened in my apartment," Megumi said. "What was a demon doing coming to my apartment?!"
