I agree that the high priestess should be separate, available only to rich merchants, wealthy nobles, and royalty.  I'd figure that even novices would cost at least as much as a night's stay at an inn with a private room (2 gp), and possibly considerably more depending on the services rendered and the precautions the church provides.</blockquote>
