Issitoq

God with whom Hellik treated on both brothers' behalf, allowing a peace to be breached.

Story so far

Issitoq appears among the gods whose churches have named Carl a friend, and Carl calls that connection a mystery — one of two, alongside Eris, that he cannot explain.

The mystery deepens in Emberus's Contemplative Message. Emberus reveals that Hellik has treated with Issitoq on their behalf, and that Issitoq in turn allowed peace to be breached. The consequence is that Emberus is now permitted to kill other princes of Sheol in exchange for information from Amayon about Geyrun.
