Two gods felt in a single location? Really now? That warranted investigation, given that when this happened a few minutes ago it didn't end with one of them dying.

Transmute the body into light, and will movement.

In the midst of the night that had enveloped the slums of Fairfield, a bolt of light shot through the miasma that blanketed the town, reaching the location of a certain loli and wisp of steam.

"Imagine you're playing a game of chess, say the finals of the World Chess Championship, and then your opponent picks up a golf club, yells 'fore', and uses it to knock your king off the board."

The light melted into itself, reforming into the visage of a young, and apparently displeased, woman.

"That's a violation of the rules, right? That's absolutely not allowed, right? The second you do that, the game stops being 'chess' and becomes something else."

Ellona shook her head in disdain, loosing a slight sigh before continuing.

"Well, you see, here's one rule of being a god in this world: gods fight. There aren't alliances, there's no symbiosis, and there certainly isn't trash like peacekeeping missions. Stop breaking my rules, alright~? If you want Death to stop something or change something, if there's a conflict of interest, don't stand there and make alliance propositions, fight her. Otherwise you're breaking the rules, and I absolutely won't forgive that, you know. Alliances are excusable under one condition, but you haven't met that condition, have you? You have no idea if that condition's been fulfilled, none of us do. You're just running around without a care in the world trying to save your own existence from getting wiped out like the nothingness it is. I'm honestly not sure if it's funny or just sad. Well anyway, if you wanna fight, then send your full existence and not some measly sliver. If you don't, then send your full existence to kill me, because I won't allow that sort of attitude."

As she spoke, the god of Order rounded about to face the god of Death.

"Oh, yeah, you can fight me too if you want, we have to eventually, but like, I'm not making you a priority target unless you're doing alliance shit, so I won't bug you for a while. Cause of that, you can keep making your zombie army thing if you wanna, and we'll duke it out later, sound cool?"
