You tell Vir-Buzz, in no uncertain terms, that he will not be dueling your husband to the death.

After spending a few more minutes venting, moaning, and shouting to anybody in your court willing to listen, the bug-headed god leaves your throne room without incident.

Word of the incident quickly reaches Emperor Walnut, and although your husband dosn't dare openly question his goddess, you can tell that in refusing the duel you have offended his pride. The Emperor's visits to your bedchamber become far less frequent.
1.6 CS:Another stranger appears at your court!
This time the visitor is a tall pale skinned humanoid mortal hero with pointy ears. A bow and a quiver are strapped to his back. He introduces himself as Char-el, son of Char-Dis, the god-queen of caves.
"Ten years ago, I was tasked with investigating the death of one of my mother's spider-priestesses. After an epic quest, and many trials, I have determined that she was killed just so that you might track down the afterlife for your own selfish reasons! You must pay for what you have taken!"
Shit. Who'd of thought that killing mortals would come back to bite you?
A: What? Who told you this? I would do no such thing! (Lie)
B: I will repay your mother by using my own essence to improve that bow that she must have given you!
C: I will replace her mortal child with an immortal one. Follow me to my bedchambers. I will spend essence to ensure that I give birth to a deity that you may take back to its grandmother.
D: COME AT ME THEN! TAKE YOUR PAYMENT IN BLOOD IF YOU CAN!
E: If your mother thinks I owe her a debt, she is invited to seek payment herself, I will not deal with you, mortal.
