About This Quote

To play favorites is to show partiality in favor of one person or thing. To take sides, in matters where you don’t have enough information to make a sound decision. That’s exactly what the gods do. They are partial to no one.

They like everyone, but they like some people more than others. They can be very unfair in their favoritism, and they can be very unfair when they act against you. The only way to deal with them is to play them fair and square.

That doesn’t mean being a pushover or being a doormat, but being completely honest with them. Always be on your guard when dealing with a god who has a grudge against you, because these gods will use every trick in the book to get back at you for your perceived slight.
