First, she would be very amused.  Second, she is not a fan of the gods and seeing one destroyed with her help would give her entertainment she has not had for decades.  Finally, all the fighting between epic combatants has attracted the attention of a lot of gods.  In my mind at least, even the PCs own gods are now even more reluctant to act directly.  In fact, I had an ending in mind if the PC who is the king dies.  If he were to fall, his god appears (materializes).  Enraged and grief stricken at the loss of his champion (and the enormous set-back for the whole pantheon in power) the deity attacks Gulussa.  He kills Gulussa but has made a fatal error.  Other gods materialize, and a brief combat ensues, but in the end, the god is dead. Now I'm not sure if that god's death would be permanent, but it would have some interesting effects on my game world.  First, the entire empire would fracture.  A couple city-states may even fall to outside forces (prime material armies, not extra-planar).  The setting would be ripe for a new set of heroes to arise.  They have invaders to contend with along with competition from now enemy city-states.  They may even begin to quest for a way to bring the dead god's spirit back to unify the empire again.  But that is many months away.  First I have to see when we can play this campaign again, and that will most likely be sometime this spring.  The "king" PC can be a bit hard to get to the table due to his work.  We've been running this campaign for some years now, so we just play it when we can.</blockquote>
