  The Celestial COurt made their powers freely available to all. They still do. Their magic is everywhere, usable by practically everyone, and often doesn't even cost Magic Points to use.

  For example, one can call on Aether to send Fire just by rubbing two sticks together (rapidly). To call on Uleria's power of reproduction is a similar process, but more fun.

  I'm quite serious about this - the nature of the world is determined by these 'primal gods'. They lack cult structure not because they are hard to reach but because they are free with their aid. For example, Flamal makes your plants grow whether or not you worship him. You can get a little extra "oomph" through his cult structure, but it's not really necessary.
