(I wasn't sure if you were doing these but if so:) 💎💎💎 about Sia from your choice of OC please

I'm always doing these! This one is below a cut because of spoilers for the secret ending (let me know if you'd like a take without the secret ending stuff). Brief reminder that relations between the church of Irori and the church of Iomedae can be frosty because Irori sees the Starstone as cheating (he and his nephew both ascended through achieving perfection without the help of a magic rock).

Qweck's eyes flash in a vicious rage at the mention of Siavash. "That man is no god. He is a mortal playing with stolen powers. He lacks the wisdom and discipline godhood demands. I can name at least a dozen mortals off the top of my head who would be more worthy of godhood than he is, but not a single one would accept such power because they have the wisdom to recognize they are not worthy.

He can't placate them with a smile and a song. Diplomatic duplicity will do him no good here. He will fall, and so will the false gods he raised with him. May they enjoy it while it lasts."
