  A 10,000-year quest is about to be completed: prophecies will be fulfilled, ancient riddles answered, legendary evils worsted, and the true nature of the universe revealed. All that's lacking is the band of heroes to accomplish all this...
  Unfortunately, some of the Gods have taken a personal interest in the matter, and are guiding one of the characters towards the conclusion of this epic - that is, one each.
  So the Gods are doing what comes naturally - squabbling & back-stabbing one-another, accidentally blowing things up, petulantly refusing to play by the rules, and turning the All-Father's Great Creation into a mess of petty arguments, avoidable combat, fantasy cliches and unnecessary dice-rolls...
