Synopsis

This chapter explores the power system of the Abyss, where gods manifest their 'Worldviews' using follower's faith, granting them near-absolute power within those realms. It introduces the return of Andersen, a 'Naked God' who was designated as a Grade-Variable and is now re-manifested in a new avatar. Andersen's followers live simple lives, but are harassed by 'harvesters' who force them to work, leading to conflict that escalates when one of the harvesters' attacks trigger the arrival of the God of Fire, who seeks to destroy Andersen and his followers.
