So, I was looking through Ultimate Faiths (for some reason I don't remember) and I noticed that it says that Apsu and Dahak's final battle is supposed to happen on Golarion.
However, in case you somehow didn't notice, Golarion disappeared. Does this mean Apsu and Dahak's already fought? Is one, or both, dead? Are they just never going to fight? Or are they going to go to wherever Golarion went? And if they can do that, what stops Torag or Rovagug from doing it too? Why am I asking so many questions? Why did the potted plant say, "Oh, no, not again."?
Maybe because of their fight Golarion disappeared? (Big Magic collides = strange Things happen)

Maybe Pharasma gave them a time-out and put Golarion away for now to avoid them getting into the fight too early?
Neither is dead as far as we know. Rovagug and Torag are the only two gods unaccounted for (they vanished with Golarion), but all the others still do their thing(s), even if they retreated away from the public.

If Golarion is gone, and their final battle will still happen there (and the prophecy isn't somehow bull), then... That probably says a lot about how far their battles are going to have to escalate by the time Golarion shows up again.
Imagine space fleets of outer dragons the size of space ships, alongside fleets of hundreds of dreadnaughts worth of Kobolds, Half-Dragons, and whatever other Draconic race is going to be released in Alien Archives.
... And now imagine them fighting over star systems while charting a course looking for Golarion. Also assume Apsu and Dahak are also looking for it, because otherwise we'd have to assume that they'd already be there, and whatever followers they have in space are going to be annoyed that they can't take part in the final conflict.
Personally, I'm starting to wonder if Golarion has been teleported to another Galaxy. The Drift Drive can't seem to reach too far beyond the rim, and likely won't be able to reach out that far until there's enough Drift beacons to fill the galaxy and reach beyond its limits. If Golarion is somewhere that's unlikely if not impossible to be found by players (as is likely the intent of the developers) then that's a good place to hide it; outside the galaxy.
In other news, I am suddenly finding myself pondering the alignments that these two dragon gods (plus Tiamat) forgot to cover: CG, N, and LE. Hopefully we find an alien Dragon god to cover those.
Interesting hypothesis
