[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 3102580, member: 29014"] [color=gray]"I'm really not seeing how it is a legitimate option in the slightest. But in the interest of thinking things through and working things out instead of just disagreeing, I'd like to hear why you think it is. I've basically already said why I think it isn't--Baeleth already had them call in the priest, so no matter what, a priest is going to come over here all the way from the temple, having been hired to heal our injured. By sending the priest away, you make us look frivolous, petty, and uncaring for the priest's duties in sending for a priest and then sending it back. We also may look like cheapskates if they know that we actually do have some badly injured people here who could legitimately use the healing. You make the inn look bad because we used them as a proxy in sending out for the priest, and so priests will be less likely to listen in the future when this inn calls for an emergency, and it may strain relations between the temple and the inn. You make the priest and his order looks bad because they appear to be insignificant lackeys or errand boys who can be called down from the temple and then sent away on a whim--normally a petitioner would go to the temple for healing, and they are doing what they likely consider a great service by sending a priest out instead."[/color] (OOC: :lol: Don't feel too bad :D) [/QUOTE]
