There was an event called the Days of Reckoning in which several deities broke sacred laws and died at each others hands. As history tells it, T’llax, a Child of Darkness and god of blades and the hunt, selected Axmir, a Chaos Born and god of pillaging and war, as his prey. Eliaz, a Child of Balance and god of laws and retribution, caught wind of this and decided to interpose himself in the matter. As it is one of the most sacred of laws to not directly harm another deity, he also requested assistance from Angelique and Xas’yg, a Child of Balance and goddess of creation and energy.
T’llax was swift in his murder of Axmir and sought refuge with Veranna, a Child of Darkness and goddess of imprisonment, torture and tyranny. Veranna refused to give up the Hunter to Angelique and his companions, stating that he was now her prisoner and would deal with him herself. This did not please the trio and infuriated Eliaz that anyone would so boldly oppose Angelique that he struck out at Veranna. T’llax knew that any judgement cast upon him from either side now would not be in his favor and attempted to flee, maiming Angelique in the process.
It is well known that a wound caused by the blades of T’llax is nearly impossible to heal, even if inflicted upon such that of a god. Eliaz, whose judgment was clouded by his outrage, was dispatched by Veranna who then fled into her realm to recover while Xas’yg tended to the mortally wounded Angelique. The goddess was able to take the wound into herself, thus saving Angelique at the cost of her own life.
Angelique was eventually able to apprehend T’llax and judged him worthy of death, which he immediately carried out himself. The god of truth, however, could see some threads cast into this scenario by another source. Angelique stormed into the domain of war, convinced that Barnabas, god of conquest, valor, victory and war, had more than a small hand in the start of this.
Bewildered that such an accusation would be made at him, Barnabas pleaded his innocence to the god of justice and suggested blame lay with Leto, god of chaos, discord, freedom and luck. With Leto being most fickle, the two decided to invite him to a conference with Avarra, goddess of death, forbidden knowledge and life. The length of this conference is still debated on being from mere hours to as long as several years. What is agreed upon is that to this day, aside from Avarra, none of the deities that were present have had any dealings with the other gods; nor with their followers or anyone else.
