We could even follow the idea that different peoples and races might actually worship the same gods but simply have different names for them, as well as inconsistent views of what this or that god is supposed to be about, sort of like what happened with Etruscan/Greek/Roman gods which ended up mixed during Roman Empire times IRL.

For instance, at tGA the Gods of Chaos, Healing and War among others had different names depending on which tribes referred to them although they had true names too which most people kept using. The snow elves, for instance, might call the God of War Gormin while humans would call him Nergal, or just War, and so on.

So, no Gods speaking to our characters through firey bushes or anything. If there were actual Gods it would interfere a lot with the various worlds aspect, I think.
I approve of this. Leaving it a bit mysterious (at least for now) should provide some fascinating ideas to the story.

We shall see. Haruko does come from a rather religious background (before stuff happened in her realm which eventually led her to Sedorra), so who knows what might happen if people start thinking she's a goddess, especially if they see shapeshifting. Interesting ideas, at any rate.
