Gods were like wolves in the way they stalked and hunted their prey: Peeping at a variety of planes, once they spotted an opportunity, they sent their doubles to establish their religion, propagating their faith.
If they were on the same plane as such beings as dragon gods, which were extremely powerful and resistant, the gods simply waited patiently. Dragon gods had no divine personas. Though they had the title of "god," they lacked the lifespan of one.
When dragon gods died, gods from the outside moved in and pounced on any being capable of inheriting the position of god in that plane. They repeated this modus operandi to spread their faith even farther.
This time, things were different. Saleen was wiping out the faith of a god on his plane, an act a god normally found intolerable. Worse, Saleen had all the time in the world, unlike the gods, who usually needed years to figure things out or craft certain types of equipment.
