Of course, how DO you distinguish the part of one god from the part
of another?
"Finally, we have the last missing portion, the water of Belintar!"
"Ummm, sir, there are a couple of anomolies that you might want to
look at."
"What, is it not the water portion?"
"Well, yes."
"And does it not pass the 19 philosophical standards?"
"It does."
"Very good, then come along, obviously it is the right bit. Let's go
and recreate our god now then."
So what does happen when you mix pieces of different gods
together.....
