Ruck's not savvy enough to get into this and use it as part of his sales pitch, but it's actually not a terrible idea for Cresce. Most of Alderode is the same religion as Cresce - Gefendur - but they are a different sect of it, one that prioritizes the two male Gefendur gods. If "Yerta" suddenly showed up and refocused the northern Gefendur on worship of her, that would stand to unify Alderode with the southern Gefendur, ending a long age of enmity and war.Of course the Ssaelit would be toast, but you almost have to break those eggs because it would otherwise save so many lives and ultimately bring peace.One wonders if these are the gears spinning in her Majesty's head? Or if she's just telling the mad snake what it wants to hear so she can get the hell out of here.Patreon related: Apple is forcing Patreon to switch to a monthly subscription format, which means new members will now be billed at the beginning of the month, rather than on the date they joined. This is only for new members, I'm pretty sure. If that's not you, nothing should change. If you like to hop around though, that might effect you next time you join. Just a heads up!
