All things are transient. The universe, the gods, the Earth and all mankind are subject to the perpetual cycle. All things are transitional but at the same time reiterative. Eternity forms a spiral. All is restored but never repeated.
Every cycle is new, unique.
We do not worship the Gods. We revere them and place ourselves on their side in the eternal struggle between Gods and Giants, light and darkness, life and death. The Tree of Life, the Ash is the middle of the world. In it come together all the threads of existence. In the Ash are united past, present and future.
