Thea doesn’t have anything major for this committee so she simply nods at the suggestion of a refresher and shakes her head at the question of anything urgent.

Dia is with her today.  But Dia is trying to appear as a simple note taker and aide and wouldn’t say anything even if she had something to say.

Slight head shake, attentive focus on the Chair who is simultaneously being relaxed and friendly and executing Procedure, definitely not fidgeting with any cantrips.

Still a bit shaken up. Does asking if the hunting diabolists committee is going to keep going and if anyone has plans to flee the city, does that come before or after the summary? Probably after.

Drevnic is here, as usual.

Present and accounted for. 

She’s here! Hopefully this continues to be less stressful than the Diabolism one.

"Okay then! Here's what I wrote:

- We are agreed that there should be an official list of churches of benign gods in good standing whom it is definitely licit to worship, and a similar list of evil gods, demon lords, etc., whom it is not, with it understood that there is a gray area between the two (obscure empyreal lords, minor deities) the handling of which is beyond the scope of this committee.
- We are considering the ideal nature of a proposal by which some part of a citizen's taxes owed may at that citizen's option be diverted to a benign church instead of their lord or the crown, to encourage the establishment and proliferation of these churches and the services they offer most particularly in regions where the lord's service to his people is unsatisfying.
- We are considering whether it might be desirable to expressly endorse Erastil as the state god but at present the committee leans against.
- We suggest that the Crown consider hosting a sort of Grand Salon of artists, writers, and performers from all across Cheliax, gathered into Westcrown or another suitable city, to exchange ideas for the presentation of Good catechesis and cultural mores, and then disperse again with these ideas to the corners of the kingdom.
- We are considering the best ways to integrate the benign churches, given their limited coverage and staffing at present, into an improved system of education throughout Cheliax, with each church taking on different subjects of instruction, but do not have a firm proposal as yet.
- We recommend extending formal invitations above and beyond those informal ones already presumed, to clerics of benign gods from abroad to visit and teach in Cheliax, and perhaps also to send some Chelish people on pilgrimages of religious study to bring back their learning to their homes."

"I asked into it last night and have a list of some empyreal lords that didn't get mentioned yesterday. I mostly made it in case the Hellknight tried anything, but it might be relevant to the list of licit gods."

"Great! Let's put together that list, then." She gets a fresh sheet of paper and writes nice and big so everyone can see without passing it around.

“I have a couple things to add to the list of things to figure out, once we’ve got all the empyreal lords.”

Enric makes sure the Stag Lord and Lady of Orchards get on the list, Erastil’s and Jaidi’s kids.

This is all interesting information worth copying down!

She knows rather a lot of empyreal lords herself at least vaguely, so she'll also do her part. Hopefully this won't be needed, but it's better to have it and not need it than the reverse.

And they can fill out a similar list of bad guys too. They can probably at least piece together a list of who they covered in school.

She'll make sure the queens of hell get on there. If Iroria is legitimate, she'll appreciate it, and if she isn't maybe someone else will be able to fact check her on things Alicia missed.

Thea has extra copies of her information sheets about the Queens of Hell.

Hm yeah those should probably go on the bad list!

Drevnic can name the empyreal lords named in The Birth of Light and Truth, not that that's very many.

Lluïsa knows a lot of names of Infernal Powers and doesn't want to write or speak them, ever, which is a dilemma.

They're getting the major ones like archdevils, this should be fine, right? Copying the ones they already wrote with scrivener's should be fine, right?

Enric can tell horror stories about all sorts of evil things that people are said to worship in other villages:

Ghosts and devils and evil fey and ancient wizards and demon birds and an angel that accepts a lot of human sacrifices for something claiming to be an angel. He’s even heard travelers say some worship the old queen, and say this whole thing is a loyalty test; when she returns as a god everyone’s getting tortured for renouncing her. 

He’s not sure which ones are actually real and which ones are just people trying to be entertaining or make up slander. Stories travelers tell grow every telling, and you always say it’s about a place everyone already doesn’t like. But if there’s any truth to any of them, people should know to not worship any of those.

"I think there are probably enough evil fey and demons and so on that it's not practical to ban worshipping them individually instead of collectively." 

"Well, if some of them are especially popular they can be on the list, if maybe on the second page."

“A book I read summarizing less common groups of Gods with a sentence or two each implied some Fey Eldest are Chaotic Neutral, but it didn’t have specifics. I guess if you specify evil Fey it excludes the non-evil fey from the ban?”

"Honestly if I were the queen I wouldn't want people worshiping random Chaotic Neutral fey. Calistria's at least a relatively known quantity!"

"Well, the whole reason we're here is because it doesn't just matter what the queen wants, right? Do we think it's a bad idea to worship random Chaotic Neutral fey? ...Which, now that I say it like that, it might well in fact be a really terrible idea, but,"

"It sounds like a bad idea to me, and I think the queen still has to sign off on whatever we write, probably."
