On-Screen Notes

 * Deities are known to be immortal.
 * However, the Olympian Crystal has the power to destroy them by erasing them from existence.
 * Religion in Fairy Tale Land seems to be majorly polytheistic, with people such as Maurice, Red Riding Hood, Peter, Granny, Baelfire and Rumplestiltskin calling upon "the gods".
 * However, characters such as Baelfire, Lancelot and Rumplestiltskin also make occasional reference to a singular God.
