The master#

Prophet Qora preaches from the steps of an old chapel in Hale to whoever stops, and more stop every year. Every walker asks which god Qora speaks for, and Qora gives every one of them a different answer.

Find Prophet Qora at the steps of an old chapel in Hale, in Crecia. Where the masters teach maps all fourteen.

How it shows#

None of this changes a roll. It’s how the people around you can tell what you walk, if you want them to.

• You pray when you’re idle, in whatever words you were raised with.
• A faint light rests on you, brightest when you’re hurt.

What others say#

The prophet’s question

Pilgrims are coming to Hale by the hundred to hear Prophet Qora, and the priests of the Temple of Goad want to know which god Qora speaks for before the next hundred arrive. They’ve asked Qora’s walkers to find out. Qora has asked them to tell the priests whatever they find.
