22.12 Commands associated with the deities.
The Gods play a crucial role in your life [See HELP PATRONS] and to interact with the deities there are various commands which you must be familiar with.
DIVINITIES Lists your patron, and how the deities feel towards you.
FOLLOWERS Lists those who follow your patron as followers.
ORDER Lists those who follow your patron fully.
DEVOTE <deity> To devote the subsequent command/action to a deity.
PATRON <deity> Selects yourself a patron. The god must be visible.
UNPATRON <deity> Denounces your patron and leaves you free from them.
PRAY <message> Prays to deities in their temples, for instance.
OFFER <item> Offers items to deities in their temples.
WISH <message> Sends your wishes to all deities in Avalon.
BOW Bows low as a sign of humility to a deity.
You will find that Gods often act in ways which may seem unfairly towards you, helping another at your expense or hindering you. Remember that FAVOUR and DISFAVOUR play a large part here, and if you are pitting yourself against somebody with the favour of a deity then you can expect them to be aided against you. Gods conform to no laws, they are unbounded by concepts such as 'equality' and 'fairness'; this is precisely what makes them so interesting and enigmatic. Remember the crucial rule; Gods do not exist because of the mortals, they exist despite them.
