Long after their followers, worshipers, and cults had broken apart, the deities of the old world, fearing they themselves would fade came together and decided to create a new world, in their image. The new Utopia, the humans spoke highly of, so they could finally be restored and continued their existence, for you see, the Gods of the old world were not truly immortal, as long as mortals validated their existence. Hundred of years ago, they had found a multi-nexus world, fitting to their liking, Arcadia. The only problem being that most of the Gods disagreed on how to control this new place to channel their power. In result, the city utopia was split into four sections, representing four major division with the Gods. Calliope, Verdandi, Methuselah, and Sídhe.
Though with a new land, connecting to many worlds and different times, in order to keep the land itself, literally stable, the Gods had to give up their powers, binding the world, in a rare joint agreement. Although limited in their powers and not as all-knowing and omnipotent as before, the Gods would keep their immortality, bound to the land they created. However, the eldest of the Gods, Brahma, managed to intact his fellow Brethren to keep a few of their powers, only on certain occasions, due to Brahma seemingly holding no absolute allegiance to either deities or mortals. For this reason alone, the city of Arcadia has been left to function, almost on it's own, sometimes in periods of chaos and sometimes in periods of peace. Some of the Gods heed sympathy to mortals, some do not. And more likely than anything, most Gods do not agree with each other. In the grand spectrum of things, this doesn't prevent the Gods seeking power from the mortals who sometimes are more powerful than a God that come across Arcadia.
Simply, the Gods will offer bargains, to sway people, offer protection, to keep balance, or to create pure chaos. It is up to each citizen of Arcadia, tied to a God to beware their choices, because there are two sides to each coin, as they say. They, of course, do not flaunt their real names, take the name of citizens, and change their appearances to blend in more.
Divisions of the city really represent forces of Gods (some of them unnamed, but they do exist), sometimes alone by themselves, or sometimes in pairs.
