So what you're saying is we have orcs and elves, And... We are the demigods?

Oh Lords. When we pour the liquid metal into an ant colony to get its shape?

Man now I kind of want to run a campaign treating the gods as if they thought of us as literal ants and termites.

And... That gods that work with clerics and stuff are etymologists... And such...

Do you mean entomologists rather than etymologists?

The typo kind of makes sense though. The Gods are etymologists who study the language of the bugs. It's why they understand prayer. Entomological etymologists.
