Action by River

River Begins working with Joscelin to make his way to the various shrines praying over each element of a prayer bracelet to have the gods touch them, perhaps making something that'll help in the conflicts about the city.


Action by Joscelin

Joscelin made this beautiful bracelet (title: 'a striking bracelet of thirteen distinct beads, each made of different materials, symbols for every God in the Pantheon') at River's request, thirteen unique beads spaced with an iridescite bead between each. Each bead is a symbol for a God, worked with care, prayed to Jayus for over every bead and every detail. She's not sure what will come of such focus, simply concentrating on her creation, as in tune with Jayus as she can be, bringing together the symbols of each deity as each bead comes to fruition. After it's done, she follows River to every altar and every person he has pray over it, adding her own prayers and hopes along with it.


Action by Fairen

While Fairen might not know of a specific Rite, he is fairly familiar with the Gods in general. He knows all of the prayers, and is more than willing to pray over the bracelet, at each of the Shrines.


Action by Alaric

River told the King he and Joscelin were working on some kind of Faith-themed art piece, and as a patron of the arts Alaric is quite fine with throwing some money at stuff like this for future modeling considerations.


Action by Etienne

Etienne admires the ambition and craftsmanship of the bracelet, and is accommodating in asking for Gild's guidance, and help with the success of River's desires. He prays over the bracelet.


Result

Joscelin makes a gorgeous bracelet indeed, full of gems and power and symbolism. It's a stunning piece - they didn't pick her as Guildmaster of the Crafter's Guild for her sailing ability, after all. Joscelin is very much in tune with Jayus as she does, focusing her attention on the bracelet and praying as she does. And indeed she has done this before - she is in tune with Jayus and the bracelet, when it is done, is the talk of the town for quite some time.

It's the talk of the town at least in part because the King is talking about it, and let's not pretend when something is beautiful enough that the King is dropping a word, well. People look. People want to look. River is occasionally swamped with people who just want to see this newest piece of art by the hand of Joscelin.

And then Fairen, and River, and Etienne get involved - praying over the bracelet, asking the Gods to give it power. They simply ask - the Archlector of Gild asks Gild for a blessing. Fairen prays at all the Shrines. And River works with Joscelin and then prays too, hoping the bracelet will provide protection of some sort.

Does it? It's impossible to tell - not without being in a dire situation facing Abyssal foes. It is a beautiful bracelet though.
