But his pantheon would have survived. (Kat) Would it? Fate is never that simple. It doesn't go in a straight line, and the more you try to circumvent it, the worse you make it on yourself. Fate will not be denied. Sin would have lost his powers by another means, at another time and place. And whoever took them then might have killed him. Had he died, the world would have ended a long time ago or the gallu would have run free and taken over. There are infinite possibilities. (Acheron)

Ren frowned as he surveyed the madness they were knee-deep in. "Why are you under such heavy fire?" Nick gave him a droll stare. "Oh, I don't know. But we're really enjoying it.
