The imprisonment, consumption & obliteration of souls and the campaign’s tone

[riprock]

VIII. Whatsoever thou dost affect, whatsoever thou dost project, so do, and so project all, as one who, for aught thou knowest, may at this very present depart out of this life. And as for death, if there be any gods, it is no grievous thing to leave the society of men. The gods will do thee no hurt, thou mayest be sure. But if it be so that there be no gods, or that they take no care of the world, why should I desire to live in a world void of gods, and of all divine providence? But gods there be certainly, and they take care for the world; and as for those things which be truly evil, as vice and. wickedness, such things they have put in a man s own power, that he might avoid them if he would:

And as for having a PC's soul devoured by Orcus, if Orcus is just, it is no grievous thing, but if Orcus takes no care of the world, why should the PC care to live in world devoid of divine providence?
