"...art and being immune to mental spells and curses are under the same goddess?"

"There aren't very many goddesses! Stuff bunches up."

"I suppose it's not like deities in other pantheons have sensible groupings either..."

"Yeah, like, Apollo, what's up with him."

"Previously I thought what was up with him was 'he's fictional'!"

"I'm pretty sure if you tell him to do stuff no magic occurs!"

"Yes I still think he's fictional I just now have evidence of gods that aren't and yet contain multitudes, so to speak."

"Don't most people?"

He giggles. "If goddesses have, like, preferences and that's what they're goddesses of... honestly that's very sensible and makes sense."

"I don't actually know. But it's as plausible a story as any."

"Don't suppose you can tell them to say stuff?"

"They'll do divinations of some kinds but it's not conversational."

"Yeah, figured it'd be too much to ask for an actual talk."

"They're not especially personable, yeah."

"Do you have, like, a cosmogony around them?"

"You're gonna have to define that."

"A creation story, the way Genesis is a cosmogony for Jehova-based religions."

"Enh, there are stories but they contradict each other outright and we don't get worked up about which is whose favorite."

"Do you have a favourite?"

"You can tell us to sod off if we're being too annoying," Luca says.

"I do have a favorite, I like the one my mom usually told me as a kid, it's the Anfisa Roksana compilation."

"I'll look that one up next time I visit a library, then."

"It might be more fun for an eight year old, but sure, knock yourself out."

"Well, Genesis sure isn't."

"There aren't fixed holy texts for witches, just various retellings of the narratives, so they can be for different audiences, such as eight year olds."
