Decision before the Parish CouncilDescription
1: Dedication"[…]I think we're not ready to reveal our prophet of the dawn […]Probably best to pick someone familiar. That's how you lure them in. Tell them everything's just fine and nothing's going to change. […]" He winks, an effect spoiled by his dark-lensed glasses.
2: Decoration"Spend spend spend," the Vice-Admiral advises. "Gold is such a pleasing colour, don't you think? Of course, it's the only colour I ever see. But it would be lovely if everyone could see as I do – and one bright day, they will." His smile is dazzling.
3: Liturgy"Get everyone singing from the same hymnsheet, that's the ticket," the Vice-Admiral suggests, his tone indicating experience in the matter. "Ideally they'll all sing the same hymn too, but one thing at a time. We mustn't startle our little flock."
4: Old Churchyard[…]"I don't understand the dilemma? Obviously we reconsecrate them. That's how you form a church isn't it? United under one banner, ideally ours." He smiles happily. "And this lot have the added bonus of being unlikely to make much of a fuss about it."
5: Collection Plate"Spend publicly and ostentatiously. Get the world to[…] come to rely upon your beneficence. Plant the seed in their heads of 'what would happen should, one day, they shut off the flow of coin'." […] "Of course, we know that we never would. But they don't."
6: Drummer's Pilgrims"Let them come in. All are welcome, yes? So long as they go out preaching our cause, what's the harm? Now, if you'll just give me half an hour with them. They'll be singing our praises by the time I'm through."
7: The Drummer's DueThe Vice-Admiral gazes at you, candlewax wedged into his ears. "I have sealed myself against the influence of pernicious doctrine. I will not be turned from my path. Perhaps you could do the same to him?"
8: Daughter ChurchThe Vice-Admiral gazes at a map of the Upper River and smiles. "We will spread across it all, in time. The dawn knows no horizon." He waves a hand dismissively. "I don't mind where we start, so long as our message spreads beyond these walls."
