The gods aren't "good" and "evil", they are "lawful" and "chaotic". The only thing that kept the god of chaos and destruction from destroying everything was the treaty that he made with his brother. And, maybe, the only thing that kept the god of law and creation from going overboard and overpopulating the place was the treaty that he made with his brother.

Salem tricked the god of chaos into breaking his treaty with the god of creation, by tricking him into doing something that the god of darkness wouldn't let the god of creation do.

She upset their delecate balance. Then when she returned with her army, the already frayed balace was completely torn apart and the god of darkness forgot all about his agreement and destroyed all the humans.

I foresee a similar balance between their surrogates as the solution: Ozma and Salem will need to come to some sort of long term agreement among themselves. Maybe Ruby's "simple soul" can broker this agreement?
