Quote #10

"You see gods have great power, but only humans have creativity, the power to change history rather than simply repeat it." (15.97)

Iskandar hits the nail on the head: this is why the gods keep returning to humans to host them and work with them over the course of history. Left to their own devices, the gods are really powerful, but they're doomed to repeat the past. Humans, when thrown into the mix, are just unpredictable enough to make things interesting, for better or worse. And that's exactly what happens when the Kanes get involved in this round of Order versus Chaos and gods versus magicians. It's the ultimate throw-down.
