[QUOTE="FoolishFrost, post: 8739596, member: 24319"] This has been discussed to death, in terms of why the gods dropped a rock on the kingpriest. Came down to the following: 1. The gods didn't do it. The kingpriest *&#@)( up the ritual and dropped the rock on himself, with the gods warning him non-stop it was a baaaaaad idea. 2. They did it as a last resort, in self defense, because they simple couldn't hit him with anything smaller. Debatable, but it's an option. 3. The evil gods did it. The neutral ones backed it, and the Good gods were SOL. Why not help clean up afterward? The clerics of that generation had been so badly tainted by the kingpriest, they couldn't afford to allow anyone who had been in contact with him (every priest) to have power anymore. Combine that with a deities sense of time, and it seemed like a quick turn around by their standards... Also, good and evil break down in our terms when the good gods know they're just going to gather the lost souls and send them to their reward anyway. I mean, they KNOW there is an afterlife. <shrugs> [/QUOTE]
