My homebrew, which I tried to take what I felt was implied has temples with powerful healers in the major cities, but you aren't going to find that in villages and towns.  My setting has cities where the youngest city is 1000 years old though, so take that into account.  On top of that there has been a lingering war for the past 1000 years.</blockquote>
