How do the gods interact with each other in the council scene of Book 1? What reasons do they give for their actions towards humans? The gods are respectful towards each other. They speak in turns and determine the fates of human beings. However, sometimes they disagree in opinion as in the case of Poseidon disagreeing with the other gods concerning Odysseus. The gods expect human beings to obey them, and failure to do so results in punishment to the human beings. The gods make the rules of the land and expect human beings to abide by these rules.

Most importantly I shared this information with three priests Mark, James, ...

The lights say nothing of their purpose. The city splits the view as a narrow band in darkness fractured by the lines of light from its houses, from its streets, life contrasting with black emptiness but conveying no meaning.

The clouds above, barely perceptible, present as much to the camera in their transient passing as these millions of people reduced to mere light present as signifiers, place marks, splats on a map, splats that barely rise above ...
