"Your own champions now, how low class." The Fire god and Hanlon were playing their usual game. She had shown up post seeing the huge spider and Hanlon had a smile on his face that let her know he knew everything.
"From the creature who invented necromancers and keeps one around as a personal afront to the gods I'll take that as a compliment."
"For me sure, I have to do things in the dark by the nature of who I am, but you, you never engaged in that kind of thing, you have your sins, but never did you empower champions. This is not a normal thing for you." Hanlon was delighted The Fire God had taken his advice, in a way he knew she would, such was the nature of their relationship.
"I'm just going to let that slide, were you aware the spider god might still be around." The Fire God did not know for sure, but figured if anyone would know if it was really dead, it would be the Death God. Hanlon smiled at her inquiry and she knew that it was.
"Now I know why you had that whiff on you."
"What whiff?"
"Fear, you ran across one of his planets, and now I know where your little people are, oh this is rich."
"You do anything against my champions..." Hanlon held up his hands.
"Oh please why would I bother? No this will be delicious, you are now the one trespassing on someone elses territory. It's been a while since gods have gone to war."
"I'm sure my people will be fine, they've got my fire, that's enough."
"Against the spider god? Sure sure." Hanlon smiled in a way that unsettled the Fire God, she started to wonder if her people would be fine, and what she had accidentally let them walk into.
