"Just like that," in FR, always means some entity made it like that. These aren't impersonal natural forces creating the world, it's active beings with personalities, thoughts, goals, and desires. If souls have to do a little song and dance to get any worthy afterlife, then someone thought that was a good idea at one point. That's a world with active gods. That's FR, by its own canon. That's not a believable characterization of "most people." Most people absolutely care if there is ultimate justice in existence. SCAG has a gnome sneaking in, so it's not as tight a lock as all that. And adventurers are always going where they're not welcome, anyway. That's part of what makes it a Story of Adventure! Tyr is in part responsible for my suffering in the first place. Why should I give honor and praise to the one at whose hands I am suffering injustice? That just reminds me of abusive relationships - "Say you love me and that I'm awesome, beg me for forgiveness, or else I won't be responsible for what happens!"Perhaps you can explain to me the world-view wherein a person who does good and fights evil and helps people and altruistically sacrifices themselves to better the world they live in can be justly made to suffer for eternity based on the say-so of certain powerful authority figures? Because I confess I'm having difficulty seeing it.</blockquote>
