"They all agree - and I don't know how that came about yet - but they all agree to step back and have avatars keep an eye on things, yeah? Only some gods, like Konshu, didn't like that.

It put him on the outs with most of the other gods who didn't like him doing that. But I'll be honest, willing to wager his personality did not help at all."
