Theoretically, it's possible the gods believe they must have humans to survive.
If you take our world, and say put a greek god into the same situation and took out all the theory of 'do they really exist'. They weren't actually a being with a name known by us until a human created that name.
I guess, in my headcanon, they weren't at all the personified gods you know, but were rather generalized forces prior to humans making them so. I call what came before a primordial god in my head.
(Ugh internet stop dying).
Currently, Thusia has a god system where gods strongly rely on civilization to believe in them, but then it doesn't explain the nature gods and how they've existed if everyone died and how they've kept their powers up. It allows players to essentially attempt to write out a god if enough people change their belief.
My headcanon up there is kind of a mix. Like I said, it's all just headcanon. I do find it interesting at current that you can opt to evolve domains in a way, crash into other domains, absorb domains, because of the fluidity of gods interacting with gods and belief of humans.
