S4.23 - You Wouldn't Download Godhood, Would You?
How do you prevent mortals from achieving godhood? Not by fighting, but by offering a deal. This week, we explore the world of the demi-divine, the stiched fabric between the mortal and immortal. What are demigods, exactly? Why do they exist? What roles might they play? What happens to the mortal who ascends? And does anything ever travel... the opposite direction?———Curious about something you heard in this episode?
