God sees that he is being forgotten. The halls empty, the faith drains away, and
he dwindles with it. This is his last cry of despair, or nearly the last — and
it is no feeble one. At the end of his strength a god can still be strong: the
storms still gather at his word, and the lightning is still his to throw.
Behind the scenes
In a sense it’s a nod to Pratchett’s Small Gods, where a god is the weaker the
fewer people believe in him. God says it through a song with Rammstein’s energy
and German words, and you don’t need to be any kind of music expert to hear Till
Lindemann here (Till, spare a fool!).
Lyrics
German, in part: “I am a big, big God / With a big, big heart, / It’s no big, big thing.”
