Really interesting episode. I recall reading a kind of story long ago involving a conflict between a "Knight of the Sword" and a "Knight of the Scroll". It was pretty funny, but I don't have any details to recall.
Readers here may look up an article at Slate called something like "The one-eyed God and the one-armed god" that also deals with the transition from a world of wild heroes to a world of laws.
Gotta say, though, that is the homeliest half-elf woman ever!
