Quick typo call, though – “captial”.

Well, the available evidence indicates that “bow down before the power of a god” is not:

1) Bandit’s (or any of the non-gnomish PCs, for that matter) reaction to the intervention of Tectonicus.
2) Bandit’s (or any of the non-gnomish PCs, for that matter) reaction to being directly attacked by HR.
3) The reaction of anyone in the World’s Rebellion to the power of Graiya.

In fact, people in general, whether they worship individual gods or not, seem to treat all gods they don’t worship essentially the same way they might treat dragons. Powerful creatures, to be dealt with carefully, but the corrupter beast caused far more existential angst than “ack, we’re fighting against the chosen of an actual god!” ever did.

So, what do gnomes think of gods, then? Because it is one thing to decide that deity worship is not their cup of tea, but in Akerra there is incontrovertible proof of the existence of mighty otherworldly beings that shape the world and the lives of mortals (sometimes that includes non-believers, too) as they see fit. Are gods bigger parts of this Grand Design? Or are they the Clockmakers? Can a race of tinkerers believe in a machine with no maker?

My wife is always madder when she unwittlingly participates in my punning. She feels your pain.
