Who the goddess? When she was defeated by the DL and technically died in lore she became a fallen goddess but not the fallen one from the DEEPEST LORE. She fell from her position in the pantheon and is now the goddess of death, the lost, forgotten and dammed. She's basically the goddess of the dregs now and and The Praetorian is her guardian, partner and a minor war god at this point after Paramool.

The two are linked in a form of symbiosis where they feed off each other to maintain their divinity. The reason her champion cannot stay dead is through this bond with the original as he is the anchor for them all. He provides the soul and it is spread across infinitely through time and space to every avatar in the multiverse. So as each one dies the fragment is brought back recharged ans sent back. The more souls the goddess collects the stronger they both become an the more the main soul can fragment. So whenever a avatar completes their task and earns their true death they return to the main soul stronger than ever before thus empowering the main soul and any fragments that are still in favour.

The current fragment you all know is not in favor and so grows weaker as time goes on until it is released form duty and dies it's true death. From there it is brought back into the fold and the cycle continues. I like to think of it as a soul bank of sorts. The bank loans out soul fragments and gains interest from the borrowing avatars.
