interfaith dinner mingle!!
Who: Interfaith Center regulars & the not-so-regulars (party crashers are welcome too!!)
Broadcast: Nope
Action: Interfaith Center on the Iskaulit
When: Forward-dated to November 4th
[The Interfaith Center sounds far more bustling and busy than usual - and anyone peering inside would quickly figure out that a communal dinner is underway! Take off your shoes and walk in: the lounge has extra tablecloths on the floor as well as buffet tables with non-alcoholic beverages and all sorts of food, including Jordanian cuisine (or the outer space equivalent of Jordanian food).
The board games are out of their hiding nooks; the furniture's arranged for the maximum seating possible; and even the teddy bears donated by Kitty & Winn are out for cuddling, should anyone want them.
The kitchen's bustling with helpers - Stefan's running around at vamp-speed to make sure everything's a) done on time and b) cooked to perfection - but he sure wouldn't mind an extra hand. And if you're still not up for some food? Well, the prayer rooms are open as usual. There's always a quiet moment to be found, even if the laughter's louder and the scent of freshly-baked mansaf's wafting through the long corridors.
Anyone and everyone who's ever been inside the Interfaith Center has been invited (via text message - and Stefan even used the fancy emoji). If you're not particularly faithful or devout? Well, drop by anyways. There's more than enough food to spare.]

[She won't give her own sob story, but truly finding the Maker had been the best thing for her in the end. It was either that or let Marjolaine continue to hunt her and to keep punishing herself for her sins. Justinia had saved her from that fate. If she could do that for someone else in some small way, it was more than enough.]
You don't have to believe in the Maker to adapt his teachings to your life. Nor do you have to take the Chantry's teachings as gospel. Some of it is heavily steeped in prejudice, such as the removal of the Canticle of Shartan, and the isolation from other races being allowed into priesthood.

[Somehow, hearing it from Leliana is far more comforting than just knowing that his father had shared similar views. Anders and Bethany before him, with their ability to believe even though by all accounts everything is against them always made Adalwolfe feel he was somehow wrong for believing what he did. Now he knows it's not necessarily wrong, just understandable, considering.]
Yeah the Chantry itself has messed up in that way. Really if it was all distilled down to 'stop making arses of yourselves and help each other' it'd be better.
