That'd be compassion and companionship for fellow elements of creation, for all those made in God's image, and for those who despite infinite unworthiness gained the sacrifice of Christ.  It's a far cry from sexual love; a better explanation would be kindred love.  It's way more universal that most definitions of the word, as are most concepts in relation to an omnipotent, monotheistic God.  That kind of universality is not really a factor here, since in this story there are many gods with separate domains, rather than a single God over everything.

So it's something of a case of apples and oranges: applying monotheistic concepts to the polytheistic system we've made here.

I just realised that I may have come across as derogatory - I was using that example more as an instance of love being far wider than 'you look nice, get into my bed'. Completely agree with all that you say other than the last bit: I don't see why we shouldn't have divine love (as in, creation's love for the creator/s) in this RP - Zerabil certainly had it/aspired towards it, and I think any realistic god RP must include a certain level of creations having devotion/love for their creator/s. Hinduism is the last polytheist religion in existence, and the concept of 'love' or at least attaining 'one-ness' with the divine is a thing. But these are just my musings xP

Edit: *Hinduism is the only [i]major[/i] polytheist religion in existence - there are many other, localised polytheistic faiths, but they are dwindling
