ty for the opening, I've wanted to make a blazing saddles reference for ages

[Michael's own expression is bland and unmoved. He's had months to acclimate to Solvunn's traditions, and their behaviour is in line with what he expects of pagan worshipers to begin with.]

You must remember that most of the locals are simple farmers, people of the land. [For once, he bothers to lower his voice.] You know. Morons.

[When it comes to religious matters and gods, anyway. Can't argue with their methods for raising livestock or growing crops.]

What matters most to them is maintaining their traditions. They believe it will afford them the gods' protection, whether or not that's true. If it's any comfort, they seem to wish the same protection for us Summoned. No one will force you to make offerings at the shrines. You'll have food and shelter so long as you're willing to work.

[And if even that doesn't appeal, there's still two other nations on the continent willing to accept Summoned.]

I'll give you time to settle in before I come knocking for lessons.
