Summary
Something goes wrong. The crown is split during Narinder's defeat, splitting the power between him and the Lamb.
Narinder keeps a portion of his godhood, and the Lamb finds that abilities they had access to before are no longer possible: Healing is cut short. Powers are halved. And there is a very real chance of perma-death, as the ability to resurrect is not possible without full power, and the God of Death is not cooperative.
Afterlife and Purgatory are not options either. Dying means erasure. Gone.Lambert knows Narinder grows stronger by the day, crown or not, and yet keeps him spared as they try to figure out how to complete their own goals. Narinder vows vengeance on the lamb for usurping him. After a few unsuccessful murder attempts, he's in for the long haul. It is only a matter of time before the Lamb's guard is down before he can strike, and The One Who Waits is very patient. When a mystic being demands they save the bishops from purgatory, an alliance is in order.
Except...the lamb's actions and their presence begin to unlock abilities within the God of Death he didn't know he had prior to his imprisonment, among other fickle things, like emotions. The prophecy didn't warn him of that part.

Summary
Betrayed not once but twice, Narinder receives mercy from the Lamb following his defeat. He will bide his time for a chance at revenge, even if it takes another thousand years.
Lambert decides to take a page out of Narinder's book and become someone willing to wait. They will befriend the now-furious god they fell for, even if it takes a thousand years.
Too bad the Mystic Seller had to drop a boulder into still water. The Bishops get involved in their lives once more, and Narinder only gets more enraged as one by one they make their reappearance. And like some leech taking a ride for the fun of it, a disgusting illness sneaks its way into his mind.

Summary
Narinder is used to the Lamb and their strange quirks. He is used to watching the Lamb do chores, gamble away their money in Knucklebones, fish, and other inane activities. Even being unable to read the Lamb's mind, The One Who Waits is confident that he knows the Lamb.
Until he realizes he doesn't.
In which the Lamb trusts Narinder (for whatever reason), the Crown apparently is a matchmaker, and Narinder enjoys being as contrary as possible, including acknowledging his feelings.

Summary
"My followers were yours, and you've had more before that. You know how to lead, and we're the only two that could do it indefinitely. I've already been benefiting from your guidance up until this point, and I still could."
The flock just keeps growing. I can care for it on a large scale, but it's more feasible to stay on top of things on a more, I guess… relational level if there's more than just one person at the head," they explain with a nod, seeming satisfied with themself. And oddly, it's their forthright manner here that's throwing him off guard, more than anything.
Through the crown, he had listened in on their sermons. They were a talented preacher, sometimes fearsome and sometimes loving, always grandiose. He'd drunk deep of the devotion their fervor inspired, and of their own fidelity to the gospel in their hand, penned carefully in his name. Their own worship.
And now, they spoke to him as if they were haggling with one of the vendors on the outskirts. Like that poorly disguised cannibal who sold them fish.
"So, I think it'd be a logical course of action if we just get married, and lead together," they finish, nodding again.-
Every time the Lamb proposes, ect.

Summary
"Haven't you heard? The ex-god of chaos himself, in love with a mortal!"
"Oh, I thought you were going to tell me something more interesting than that."
"Huh? What about this isn't interesting?"
"I don't know, maybe the fact that it's obvious to anyone with eyes?"
"What?"
"Yeah, I thought the only one who didn't know was the cat themselves!"
(Or: Rowan had grown close with Leshy and thought that maybe the ex-god was finally starting to warm up to them, but then strange things started happening. Things that could only be explained by Leshy having some form of strong feelings towards them. If only they knew what those feelings were...)

Summary
The new God of Death accidently summons their reflection from another world: a mirror of themselves in the form of a rambunctious War God. But their dark shadow seems to take the form of a...goat?
After forming a most likely unholy alliance against old enemies the two stumble upon a cycle of betrayal older than time left behind by their respective predecessors...
As they travel through worlds, heavens, hells and everything in between, each with their own different fate, they find one thing to stay the same across: the treachery of gods
The World of Deities seems to hold no purity, not even between blood, yet alone with mortals.
But where did this goat come from? Why are they wearing the purple crown?
And who was their god?

Summary
When the lamb first dies, The One Who Waits is, admittedly, growing desperate.
Vengeance is a burning, hot feeling. It’s something that swells in his chest and makes him dizzy. It’s something he’s chased after since chains had latched onto his wrists and imprisoned him. It’s been his driving factor and motivation. His claws itch and burn with the need to do something. Old battles wounds still ache. He still remembers inflicting battle wounds. And they burn with desire. Desire so sharp that it stings.
And when the lamb first dies, it’s his last bet. His last card. He hopes it’s a good one.
(aka instead of Narinder just getting indoctrinated into the Cult, it goes a little differently)

Summary
A vessel falls, a god rises. The Lamb fulfilled their role in a prophecy they never asked to be a part of, expecting to be rewarded with their well-earned final rest.
Yet that's not what happens
After being unexpectedly brought back to life by their god, the Lamb finds themselves once more on a quest to strike down the Bishops of the old Faith, yet with a different reason as of why. However, things don't go as planned for the god of death since a certain someone didn’t exactly want to be alive again and in fact, would much prefer to go back to being dead, thank you!
The crown is not working as it should, and with the threat of the rest of the crowns having fallen in the wrong hands, the Lamb and Narinder find themselves having to work together once anew, and they are not talking.

Summary
Unfortunately for the cult, The Lamb was tasked with going into purgatory and freeing the bishops from their eternal torment. And based on the presence of a certain cat, it was pretty likely that these bishops were soon-to-be neighbors.
When the Bishops arrived to the cult, as seen from the perspective of one of The Lamb's followers.

Summary
Years have passed since the defeat of The One Who Waits, usurped by his vessel now crowned infant God of Death. The Lamb is kind and forgiving, perhaps a little more than they should be, allowing mercy for not one, but two of their (near) extinctors.
Leshy had been rescued from his personal purgatory in slightly more recent years. The rescue of the bishops is slow, the lamb's progress halting upon the latest godly arrival. It took a lot of effort, and even more patience to get where they are now.
Not exactly friends, not entirely enemies, Lamb and the worm have a ways to go yet. Leshy is growing less and less content with the duties that come with being a member of The Lamb's flock, acting out and misbehaving- The lamb is starting to think it's more than overstimulation. They've worked so hard to get to this point...
But it's hard to appease chaos incarnate.
At least, they thought it was.

Summary
A collection of stories featuring Heket and what I'm collectively referring to as The Brood, though are actually multiple broods across different points in time.
The series focuses on Heket herself and serves as more of a character study, with The Brood being (mostly) incidental characters.
I am open to suggestions should you have any, though I can make no promises.
I would also like to branch out into content with the other Bishops, of whom currently only Kallamar is co-operating (see Wayward Child).

Summary
The land of the Old Faith was once tended to by hundreds of gods. What happened to them? Where did they go? Eons pass until the remaining five are no more.
Or so it seems.
The discovery of true Godhood and duty of one’s dominion is not exactly what Lambert’d been signing up for when they refused to be sacrificed for The One Who Waits -but alas, here they are.
Right alongside the God of Death himself, of course. If only they could work together and put an end to the world’s ceaseless turmoil once and for all.
Well… it's been eons already, the world can wait a bit longer.
Can’t it?
***
‘For all who seek the truth are worthy of knowledge.’
So it was once said.
Or is that yet to be?

Summary
The God of Chaos is resurrected from the dead after dying horrifically (twice) and brought back in mortal form, contained in a cult that worships his brother and is led by his murderer. Leshy would expect to be made into a laughing stock by them for eternity, only for him to be met with a surprising amount of care and understanding by those around him.
Now, Leshy must begrudgingly navigate the world as a mortal, dealing with his newfound flaws, both physical and emotional.
Unfortunately for him, a particularly kind follower by the name of Anim really wants to befriend Leshy, and even worse, Leshy can't find it in his heart to stop them.
Things were easier when he was a god.
