The grudge match continues to increase in intensity, as the lil kid who was a barely functioning sword upgrades due to extreme devotion to his god and now he can become TWO swords!
And while our slacker god ups his ferocity, the goddess with a grudge has been slowly getting worse, with the betrayal of one of her minions last time sapping her strength and the evil machinations of a bad medicine man...a bad medicine man who then unleashes a giant monster to destroy the rest of her indentured servants, weakening her more.
And then the last 3rd of the book expounds more on the tragic backstory of the glasses-wearing minion of the warrior goddess and all the guilt he's been carrying around since last time these two deities fought. Helmut Zemo from the MCU was right; the best way to get rid of an enemy is to cause discord from within.
