Possibly evil...But how to accomplish this in a world filled with magic that can detect "alignment" and priests who recieve spells directly from the gods themselves, and can at certain levels even speak with the deity directly?!?! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />I could possibly say the higher ups have lost their faith, possibly moving on to the "source" of evil (the devils and demons...) and the lower priests just haven't realized it? But... in a world where angels can manifest physically? Just seems kind of silly... I'm running into the idea that I will have to dramatically alter the way alignment works or how priests interact with their deity in my world...</blockquote>
