Right? It makes no sense. "We believe these people might be dangerous, so we'll put them in a position where overwhelming odds say they'll prove us right. Confirmation bias? What confirmation bias?"
And mages have been dealing with this for centuries. That loyalists even exist is beyond me, these people should have fireballed the Chantry into oblivion at least 500 years ago.
❰ the hate adalia feels for the chantry, as a rational faerunian with normal gods, knows no bounds. the chantry lies and cheats and murders in service of its maker, and everyone believes in it out of... guilt? desperation? disgusting. they need to be saved from their own conditioning. ❱
I have a Templar I trust I'm going to ask to keep an eye on me when I do it so if I go all abomination-y I won't hurt anyone. There apparently has to be someone in charge of the ritual, or something...? In any case, I won't be alone.

I appreciate your concern, though. Thank you.
