So I do believe in a godhead. If you haven't noticed in say Greek myths there are elder gods who came before Olympus called Titans and Primordial gods before them such as Chaos(there are people much more certified than I to talk about them, of course), similarly in Norse, and many other I am too clueless to say here. And the gods of mortal time were specified not to take part in creation but more like manifestation of nature. Most Primordial deities perishes, or rather falls asleep after creation (as their presence might be required for the world to exist) and by normal means cannot consciously affect reality.
In early Religious Taoism before its freakish merging with Shamanism that represents neither, there is a lore where someone who achieved power beyond omnipotence giving birth to a new reality. Then the mortals, in its most primitive, fragile form, was born. Some physical, some closer to spirits, and possibly the later would come first, and to an extent becoming the basis of nature. Then came the mystical gods, whose existence are bounded by mortal belief and have mutual effect with mortals, possibly unintended mantling of something greater (re-awaking something more ancient, or an aspect of it) or purely out of belief though there are multiple theories of how that works, for now I will say reality wrapping (belief is literally wrapping reality,) and Omni-verse (some unknown forces are mantling these ideas, then with it comes identity and power, shaping into what we belief today).
And as of personal belief there is a Macro-verse beyond Omni-verse that the true fabric of reality is mathematics rather than metaphysics.
So to rephrase everything: Macroverse >> Godhead -> Metaphysics -> Spirits -> Mortals -> Gods <==> Mortals.
