[ The Ring-Spirit frowns as his considers this angle. ]
Huh... never thought to question that before... It's true everyone seems to take the Day and Night's war for granted, if they even know about it: the two had a rivalry, it got out of hand. But there hasn't been much research into why they were rivals to begin with... We know very little about those two. If the imbalance didn't start because of them, but rather the other way around...
[ He trails off, peering unseeing into his tea. He'd never thought to investigate the two "dead" gods, just assumed them to be off the playing field and thus irrelevant. ]
...A question was raised to me a while back as to whether those two are even really gone after all. Supposedly the Fourth and Fog rely on their priests for their own indestructability, and if the same held true for the Day and Night... well, all of their true priests, the ones invested with power, had been killed off at one time, or at least that's what we'd thought anyway. But within the past few years we had a time disruption and a number of Night and Day priests were rescued from their war - which could mean the Fog wouldn't have been able to kill either of her siblings, not fully.
