I was hoping to get some input and opinions.
It seems like the majority of fantasy novels have a really detailed breakdown of "Gods." How important is this to you, as the reader?
The only reason I bring this up is because, in my recently finished manuscript, I allude to higher power(s) in the verbage that my characters use ( "By the Gods", "Gods, that hurt", etc.)
However, aside from showing that there is some form of organized theology, Gods play no part in my story. Is this a mistake? Should I give more detail, or perhaps take it out completely?
As always, all thoughts and input are greatly appreciated.
