From: Consulting the Parish Council
Action Cost: 0
Sister Lydia has a very rude aphorism about opinions – which she shares, loudly, on occasions such as this. Still, she's conscious of whose payroll she's on and will contribute, grudgingly.

Description summary:
The advice given varies based on the 
Decision before the Parish Council.
| Decision before the Parish Council | Description |
|---|---|
| 1: Dedication | Sister Lydia blows out a great puff of smoke. "Cecilia's a good gel," she says, "And more than good enough for the likes of us." She folds her arms, brooking no further argument. |
| 2: Decoration | […] "Seems to me that where most of the major western denominations in the Christian tradition have gone wrong is the money aspect. 'Course there's other problems – but money's the root. So how about we see that one off at the pass, eh?" |
| 3: Liturgy | […] we're going to have all kinds of daft sods pitching up here […] Every damn fool who's ever upset the powers-that-be by asking too many […] questions. So to my mind, the kindest thing we can do is arm these holy fools with a bit of common bl___y sense." |
| 4: Old Churchyard | […] "Leave the poor b_____ds be, is my advice. They've got problems enough what with being dead and all." She lets out a long sigh. "Sorry state of affairs if we think the religious disposition of the dead is a threat to our holy well-being." |
| 5: Collection Plate | Sister Lydia rattles the poorbox contemplatively. "Fair whack of cash in this," […] "Could set a humble nun up for life. […] Look, anything worth doing is worth doing quietly. Let fools blow their own trumpets. We're about the business of the church here." |
| 6: Drummer's Pilgrims | […] "Life'd be a lot better if fools like these'd learn there's more worth in helping the living than worrying about the wishes of the dead. But if their little hearts are set on it, it costs us nothing to let 'em go crypt-bothering." […] |
| 7: The Drummer's Due | "In my long experience," […] "the only thing for a noisy neighbour is to make him fear the consequences of upsetting you more than he desires the brief pleasure of whatever damn fool thing causes the noise in the first instance." […] |
| 8: Daughter Church | "Sod 'em […] If they want to come to Church they can bloody well make the journey. Better for the constitution, better for my health not being sent hither and yon." She glares at you, as though daring you to send her to either Hither or indeed Yon. |
