Not all gods are grand and majestic. Not everyone can be a Wotan, a Hera, a Buddha, or even the One God.
Sometimes the tasks are too trivial for the big gods?they have to prioritize, after all. In fact, they don't even deign to notice the little stuff. That's where the small gods step in.
And the "kid"? He really, really, really wants to join the Small Gods Club. But first he needs the local Fate to smile down on him.
