Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


I suspected. I believed. I had... faith. But I cannot say that I knew what you were going to do. (smiling) That is why you mortals have free will, you know. It gives us gods plausible deniability.
Labelas Enoreth (Reunification by Jeff Grubb)
The gods play games with the fate of men. Not complex ones obviously, because gods lack patience. Cheating is part of the rules. And gods play hard. To lose all believers is, for a god, the end. But a believer who survives the game gains honour and extra belief. Who wins with the most believers, lives.
