    Summary

    Something goes wrong. The crown is split during Narinder's defeat, splitting the power between him and the Lamb.

    Narinder keeps a portion of his godhood, and the Lamb finds that abilities they had access to before are no longer possible: Healing is cut short. Powers are halved. And there is a very real chance of perma-death, as the ability to resurrect is not possible without full power, and the God of Death is not cooperative.
    Afterlife and Purgatory are not options either. Dying means erasure. Gone.

    Lambert knows Narinder grows stronger by the day, crown or not, and yet keeps him spared as they try to figure out how to complete their own goals. Narinder vows vengeance on the lamb for usurping him. After a few unsuccessful murder attempts, he's in for the long haul. It is only a matter of time before the Lamb's guard is down before he can strike, and The One Who Waits is very patient. When a mystic being demands they save the bishops from purgatory, an alliance is in order.

    Except...the lamb's actions and their presence begin to unlock abilities within the God of Death he didn't know he had prior to his imprisonment, among other fickle things, like emotions. The prophecy didn't warn him of that part.

    Summary

    Kairi, who had spent the last twenty years, essentially her entire life, as Kairi, secretarial and house slave to Bezdeh Moonshadow, was sitting in a comfortably dark hallway on an uncomfortable stone floor, grappling with the very beginnings of how to cope with just being Kairi.

    She'd heard of Khldom, god of justice, of course. She was a fucking secretarial slave. Yes, sure, the oldest of dark elves could remember a time before his presence in their legal system, but that just served to cement his legend, because occasionally one might hear from someone who remembered when it happened. And in the here and now, there were statues of him in courthouses. His name was never invoked in proceedings, because everyone was a bit too worried they'd catch his attention, but things were done with him in mind. At least, in theory.

    In reality, most lawyers were probably like her, in that the concept of a god, even a god of the thing she did, was a very distant concept. It wasn't as if he'd show up at her work desk and demand to see if her papers were in order. It wasn't as if he'd appear in court.

    Except for the times he did.

    Except for today.
