Taken a little more broadly, the default RQ adventure was to enter the Big Rubble and do dangerous things in search of treasure. (The default Shadowrun adventure is similar, only replace Big Rubble with Corporation. The default D&D adventure is similar, only replace Big Rubble with Local Dungeon.)
I'm not sure that Hero Wars has a default adventure.

I think these deities now have somewhat expanded roles. It may also help to think of Voria as the protector (in a sense) of young girls (even if her main ability might be to call her sister for help).
Also, you would probably let kids play at sacrificing to them. If you found your kids sacrificing a rabbit to Voriof, you wouldn't get too upset. They won't inadvertently call down bad juju, like they might by sacrificing to Humakt (or botching a sacrifice to Uralda).
