Hello. I've decided to take it upon myself to help maintain the church in Aldrip since its minder has disappeared.

[ He steps slightly to one side to show off the background: it is indeed one of the places of worship for the local residents. ]

Although the people here seem to have grown less fond of us than before, I thought it might be nice to try and introduce them to some of the deities that we worship ourselves - as well as give people somewhere to pray or leave offerings to their patrons while we're in this new land. So I'm inviting anyone who follows some form of deity to create a small shrine for them in the church. I've set aside some space.

That's a wonderful idea. It could help us to understand each other better--to bridge the gulf that's arisen all of a sudden.

My family's god granted us paladin gifts. I'd like to add some tokens for that.

Of course! You're welcome to come and leave them here. I don't really have the money to do more than keep a table to display them on right now, but I think if I offer healing services to the people then I should be able to afford the building's upkeep at least.

Assuming they don't get angry at me for taking over...

It would be nice to have a place to make offerings, too. [She's gotten back into the habit of praying, even though she doesn't know how long it will take her words to reach Svafrlami.] And if you're looking to do that, I can provide you with some medical supplies to supplement your magic.

They shouldn't, should they? It doesn't disrespect their gods to continue worshipping our own.

I'd welcome anything you're willing to share! Please only give what you can spare.

Someone else pointed out to me that worshipping our own gods in the temple of another may not be looked upon kindly. If that really is the case then I'll see if it's possible to have a separate building constructed next to this church instead. I think we could all benefit from somewhere quiet, even if someone doesn't follow a god.
