  1. I feel like The goddess of the heavens should have a name change to like goddess of the afterlife, or have a god of heaven and a god of hell as the dark goddess seems more like a grim reaper kind of character to me. And what about a god of love, beauty and desire, like a siren or something. Just spit balling here.

    1. Heavens not as in afterlife, but heavens as in the stars and space.
