Friends, I bring to you news of a most pernicious crime, and one almost wholly invisible to those of us with the fortune to live in Westcrown, which is blessed by the churches of the Good gods! For those who dwell in more distant cities and towns have sent forth reports of dreadful and unjust behavior by priests of Abadar. According to such reports, Abadar's priests (alone among the gods) are charging ruinously high prices for the mere act of creating water — an act which can be done as often as the priest wishes, with scarcely the effort it takes to lift a finger! There are priests charging five silver, ten silver, fifty silver, merely to allow the ordinary citizens of Cheliax to drink! I have heard that in some towns citizens are even going without water, or drinking water tainted with curses and other such causes of malady, all because they cannot pay!

Our citizens are suffering! I beseech Her Majesty the Queen to proclaim the following immediately, for the good of Cheliax:

• The price to be charged for a single casting of Create Water spell shall be capped at a maximum of one copper piece, effective immediately. This shall allow the priests of Abadar to still earn an honest living, without depriving any of Her Majesty's subjects of such vital necessities.
• The Queen shall report all such unfair doings by Abadar's priests to her companion Shawil, the Pharaoh of Osirion, that Abadar might strip all such priests of their powers, for Abadar commands that his priests deal fairly with others.
• If any priest of Abadar or any other god is found to be overcharging for Create Water or other such vital orisons, their excess fees shall be confiscated and given to the Church of Iomedae, which has provided clean water to the citizens of Westcrown for no charge at all.
• The Queen shall beseech Gozreh and Cayden Cailean for a miracle, that they might purge all the waters of Cheliax and leave them cleansed, so that the citizens of Cheliax will no longer be forced to depend on priests for such a vital necessity. She shall also beseech Pharasma to banish all undead from Cheliax, for where they are allowed to linger, their stench will surely taint the water once more.
