There
was
a
god
who
came
here
from
a
far
land
,
and
whose
power
and
influence
waned
as
belief
in
him
faded
.
He
was
a
god
who
took
his
power
from
sacrifice
,
and
from
death
,
and
especially
from
war
.
He
would
have
deaths
of
those
who
fell
in
war
dedicated
to
him
—
whole
battlefields
which
,
in
the
old
country
,
gave
him
power
and
sustenance
.
"
Now
he
was
old
.
He
made
his
living
as
a
grifter
,
working
with
another
god
from
his
pantheon
,
a
god
of
chaos
and
deceit
.
Together
they
rooked
the
gullible
.
Together
they
took
people
for
all
they
’
d
got
.
"
Somewhere
in
there
—
maybe
fifty
years
ago
,
maybe
a
hundred
—
they
put
a
plan
into
motion
,
a
plan
to
create
a
reserve
of
power
they
could
both
tap
into
.
Something
that
would
make
them
stronger
than
they
had
ever
been
.
After
all
,
what
could
be
more
powerful
than
a
battlefield
covered
with
dead
gods
?
The
game
they
played
was
called
‘
Let
’
s
You
and
Him
Fight
.
’
"
Do
you
see
?
"
The
battle
you
’
re
here
to
fight
isn
’
t
something
that
any
of
you
can
win
or
lose
.
The
winning
and
the
losing
are
unimportant
to
him
,
to
them
.
What
matters
is
that
enough
of
you
die
.
Each
of
you
that
falls
in
battle
gives
him
power
.
Every
one
of
you
that
dies
,
feeds
him
.
Do
you
understand
?
"
The
roaring
,
whoompfing
sound
of
something
catching
on
fire
echoed
across
the
arena
.
Shadow
looked
to
the
place
the
noise
came
from
.
An
enormous
man
,
his
skin
the
deep
brown
of
mahogany
,
his
chest
naked
,
wearing
a
top
hat
,
cigar
sticking
rakishly
from
his
mouth
,
spoke
in
a
voice
as
deep
as
the
grave
.
Baron
Samedi
said
,
"
Okay
.
But
Odin
.
He
died
.
At
the
peace
talks
.
Motherfuckers
killed
him
.
He
died
.
I
know
death
.
Nobody
goin
’
to
fool
me
about
death
.
"
Shadow
said
,
"
Obviously
.
He
had
to
die
for
real
.
He
sacrificed
his
physical
body
to
make
this
war
happen
.
After
the
battle
he
would
have
been
more
powerful
than
he
had
ever
been
.
"
Somebody
called
,
"
Who
are
you
?
"
"
I
am
—
I
was
—
I
am
his
son
.
