Soon after attaining godhood, the nine greater gods got to work clearing out the infestation of Tanar'ri on the planet. With peace settling across the land, and all the tanar'ri banished, the gods all found new homes on the outer plane that suited them best. Only Mikon stayed on the Prime Material Plane. The Supreme charged him with the responsibility of keeping the other gods where they belonged, unless they were needed on the Prime Material Plane to restore balance.
