The 'pedia is great, but is it just my browser or did you set it to blue on

A duel in the field of battle, one of them getting captured by the other
side, or perhaps even a diplomatic function? She doesn't even need to be
high-level at the time.

spade/heart kisses thing) supports this.

You overlooked an important point. Hild was loaded down with more limiters
than even Belldandy at the time. If Belldandy (unlimited) could fight Hild
(also unlimited) to a standstill, I will concede your point.

Assumptions are fine. I just want to know why you feel that Japanese phrase
implied their father was kamisama.

Sorry Edward.
