The latter for certain. Maybe even agressively. Though that would lead to trouble with Flambeau and maybe Jerbiton.
Mayhaps. Like always it would depend on your set and setting. If we assume your pov from here (forum.atlas-games.com/viewtopic. ... a63400256e) the divine might even loose and a powerful pagan pantheon might rise to shape the mythical world anew.
Btw my pov about the divine in ars magica is similar: Not absolute but in power, relativ power that is. In the end this solves a lot of trouble and inconsistencies for me.
