Then could thee share their activities with us, then Caldor? I may not agree with their version of things, but I am still interested in what they are saying.

I had heard about one of the Clergy of Visagalis being slain, which led to the confrontation later that month. We have already communicated regret over that incident from what I understand. Our Priests have had extensive conversations with Father Lazarus and those conversations form the basis of what I know of this religion.

Brother John was returning with answers to my questions concerning their thoughts on the Role of Arawyn in their faith and/or the relationship between Arawyn and Visigalis. This was a different murder. I doubt a murder committed Sunday at 2 was the basis for the prior confrontation. I still have a lot of questions about their faith as well, and do not agree with much of what they have to say, but I am concerned if our townsfolk are killing them over their faith.

The only activities of theirs I am regularly aware of is spreading the word of their god and tending to the poor. Was there any activity you had a question about in specific?

To the proverbial bees nest,

It's amazing how a few choice words can get the creative juices flowing. Some interesting details have come up, but very little about the actual church of Visagalis. If one of them was murdered; is there any more information as to how or why? Are you certain it was due to faith related incidences not simply for one persons' own moral misgivings. Many people have many enemies for many reasons after all.

Make it clear, I speak for myself, and my representation of teachings; and the lore I have learned, ancient or otherwise from the scriptures of my Goddess. In the event that the wishes of the Gods have changed in time, that would change the text and the teachings of the Gods absolutely. I just know there are more than a few agitated priests, some of which I am affiliated with others whom I am not who want to see those who are utilizing the Domain of Suffering and the deserters of the faith strung from trees. There will be a time where these decisions are made by individuals. All I know is, every instance I have ever seen of another being attempting to take Agaura's power has ended violently.

Dark Chroniclerites, in my presence, have summoned an Avatar of Agaura in the past. They worshipped a demon and that demon used an artifact to steal the power of the gods and emulate them. With the new changing of the world, this may be different; I can assure you though: Sir Archer VanZant (Spelling forgiven) made sure that every single of them was executed, clergy or otherwise, under the law of the land and title of nobility. That Avatar also, went berserk, declared heresy and attempted to murder those affiliated with its summoning. The words it used in my recollection, paraphrased closely: "Those who would defile the powers of Agaura shall be made to know true suffering."

I wonder if Valos would feel the same way about his powers being stolen, and his followers taken by demons. Then again, he might just call them heretics and burn them as well. Neither side abides traitors. I just know I saw way more followers of Visagalis utilizing the domains of the Light Gods than the Dark. I'd watch your congregations closely; Mine are growing. Yours most certainly will be shrinking.

Archer Van Zandt is a squire, not a knight.

Razberry,

The law has been broken and a crime has been committed. It must be addressed. I would urge you to set aside your religious differences with those of the other faiths and to cease and desist from antagonizing their followers. Anything less would be inefficient at this time.

The Law remains unbiased by whatever theological structure you ascribe to. "Light", "Dark", "Good" or "Evil", the perpetrator(s) of these crimes should be brought in, proven guilty, and punished for their transgressions. That is a goal that all theologies and all civilians should be able to agree upon and work towards. I'm not talking mob justice- too often people pull steel and ask questions after the bodies have hit the ground.

I'm talking proper legal etiquette be followed and proper legal redress pursued for these murders.

I had not heard of a second murder. Do thee know who did this?

I had no specific questions regarding their activity. I know that they are preaching, and their preaching attempts to say things that are not true about my religion, so its more complex than simply letting people do as they want. But, murder is never an answer for disagreement.
