Oceana stepped between them, her voice like a calming tide. "Both of you, enough. We are meant to work in harmony, not tear each other apart. The seas connect all worlds, and it is through unity that we sustain life."
Verdantus nodded in agreement, his eyes glowing with the light of understanding. "Oceana is right. Our domains are interconnected. The growth of life depends on the balance of fire, water, and stars. We must find common ground."
Despite their occasional agreements, the deities' egos and differences often led to fierce conflicts.
One deity was always feeling as though another had stepped out of place and interfered with his domain and this usually resulted in fights since they were usually too egoistical to settle things amicably.
