==Getting There==
In order to start doing pilgrimages in Godfall, you must first unlock {{IL|Godfall}} as a location in the Unterzee map and have your own ship.

Godfall can be unlocked either by:
*Spending a {{IL|Relatively Safe Zee Lane}} in {{IL|Wolfstack Docks}} with {{IL|Making Progress in the Labyrinth of Tigers}} 16. The zee lane is worth 62.5 {{e}}
*[[Zailing (Guide)|Zailing]] around in {{IL|Shepherd's Wash}}, [[Row, row, row|drawing a certain card]] and spending wine worth 22.5 {{e}}
In order to actually unlock the pilgrimage, you also have to spend a few actions to increase {{IL|Invitation to a Pilgrimage}} to 10.

==The Pilgrimage==
A Pilgrimage through Godfall takes 16 actions, with a specific structure. After starting the pilgrimage, you will alternate actions between encounters along [[The Pilgrim's Path]], and Oblations to manifestations of St Stalactite, passing through seven manifestations in order. Finally, you will [[Return to Aeschaven (The Pilgrim's Path outside of Evolution)|Return to Aeschaven]]. 

While the Oblations are encountered in a specific order, the encounters along [[The Pilgrim's Path]] are partially randomized by {{IL|Airs of Godfall}}. The range of possible Airs values increases over the course of the Pilgrimage, so there is a progression of content despite the random element. There is a set of encounters associated with each pair of Oblations.

Every encounter along [[The Pilgrim's Path]] may gain {{IL|St Stalactite's Favour}}. During Oblations, you may choose to either observe the rites and earn a small reward, or participate and spend {{IL|St Stalactite's Favour}} to gain a larger reward and a level of {{IL|The Oblations of St Stalactite}}. Taking into account the value of both Favours and Oblations at the end, both options give the same profit.

==Rewards==
Each level of {{IL|St Stalactite's Favour|Appearance=Favour}} is worth {{e}}3.5 whether it is used on Oblations or wine, and each {{IL|The Oblations of St Stalactite|Appearance=Oblation}} is worth {{e}}2.0. At the end of your Pilgrimage, a tithe of {{e}}14.00 worth of Oblations and Favour is taken, and the remainder is cashed out in the form of {{IL|Strangling Willow Absinthe}} when you [[Return to Aeschaven (The Pilgrim's Path outside of Evolution)|Return to Aeschaven]]. This works out to (7 * {{IL|St Stalactite's Favour|Appearance=Favour|Type=Math}} + 4 * {{IL|The Oblations of St Stalactite|Appearance=Oblations|Type=Math}} - 28) x}} Earning 22 Favour gives you a {{IL|Bottle of Fourth City Airag: Year of the Tortoise}} (and a single bottle of absinthe) instead.

If you are able to succeed on every encounter on [[The Pilgrim's Path]], you will earn 20-22 {{IL|St Stalactite's Favour}} depending on Airs rolls and Ambition. The seven Oblations together earn a net reward of {{e}}15, regardless of choices. This gives a maximum of '''4.44 - 4.88 EPA'''. Realistically, even an end-game character will struggle to succeed in the final encounter. Failing these challenges, but succeeding in all others, results in '''3.56 - 4.00 EPA'''. The actual EPA of a character that can pass all other challenges will fall somewhere in-between those ranges, depending on their success rate for a {{IL|Watchful|220}} or {{IL|Shapeling Arts|15}} challenge. Note that this profit can in some cases be increased through the rat market or similar exchanges.

If you complete all the Oblations, you can instead turn those in via [[Cross the bridge of hands]], trading your rewards from the oblations into {{IL|Nodule of Pulsating Amber|Appearance=Pulsating Amber|1 x}} and {{IL|Memory of a Much Lesser Self}}. This is a worse EPA than the standard method however, and so only useful if you need Pulsating Amber.

In addition to this, the first time you do so, you will gain {{IL|Nodule of Pulsating Amber|Appearance=Pulsating Amber|1 x}} for free, sellable for 62.50 {{E}}
