Tsk. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Tsk. Hmmm. If you are among those to take these - these four wretched horsemen of no apocalypse as deities of the land, then... tell me, what's greatest deed they've wrought to show their power?
Who are they? What can they do? When did they come? Who gave them title and rank? Surely one of you simpering mice must have kept chronicles.
There's nothing to say they give the curse to the City, only that they exist amidst its power. But that does not make it theirs. They're no aspects of Divine Will, they've never given the wine or broken the bread or said the first Words. They are not El. They are... nothing I know of. And if somehow, they stand a pantheon, then by all right there is a forefather to them, or a mother, or a source. There is a hierarchy. That is how all tales go. Then, who sits the throne above them?
And how soon can a knife be taken to its throat?
...come, come, one of you must have a pet theory. We're only plotting God-killing, no need to be... loan some scruples.
[ ooc: this is mostly his speculation about how the City deities work, nothing necessarily confirmed XD ]
