Some intact statues of The Last Mighty One still existed in the smaller outer provinces.
A few desperate people still left their votive offerings at the various altars in the vain hope that life would return to them one day.
That was the function of The Last Mighty One.
To bring life to the lifeless. To restore energy to the exhausted. Power to the powerless.
No-one truly understood the nature of his form.
Why wasn't he Human, like his devotees?
Obviously at some point in time people had known why he had taken that particular form.
The Great Rabbit.
Worship at his feet, prostrate, genuflect.
The Mighty Duracell.
Hear our prayers.
Bring the power back, light the darkness.
Save us from ourselves.
