Renaxis' Explanation

Aliens

He found out of the alien force. Even consulting with Death, no explanation was found. They are outside of even his purvue. He is not worried. The gods are only struggling as they wasted their energy on eachother for eons, battling over minor squabbles. Whatever is killing them, obviously sensed the strife, and is simply seizing an opportunity.

We will not be the same as them. We will be pragmatic rulers. Fair gods. Gods who listen, who create. Not gods who drip-feed their omnipotence and blessings to their followers, like scraps to a mutt.

The world belongs to those who are brave enough to seize it. If you can do that, no challenge can stop you. Aine and Elatha did not seize this world, they merely inherited it.
