In order to shed some light on the nature and society of the gods, The Arkon and The Greek spend episode three discussing how they operate, how their domain is structured and what their plans are for mankind.

In this episode of the Godpseek Podcast, The Arkon asks The Greek to elaborate on the ancient understandings of “spirit” and “soul”, as well as why their meanings have been lost to time.
