A spot of in diocesan intrigue

I seemed to have gotten myself in a spot A spot of in diocesan intrigue. I spoke with the Bishop about his exceedingly ambitious idea and now it seems he is truly going to go through with it. Knowing something of The Duchess I would find her advise most reasonable in not proceeding in this adventure. I'm in a quandary and looking to see if anyone else has any opinions. I am not going along with him in this insanity. I can tell him no or inform The Masters about this insurrection. The Masters are not always terribly rewarding when aiding them. Has anyone else any thoughts as to what might be more fortuitous?

Well, ultimately, it's your choice - it's not a story with clear right or wrong endings, and, as it's Fate-locked content, we can't tell you very much in detail. I'll say this much: no given path, as it stands, gives you such a reward that it would be foolish to take any other. Nor do they immediately shift the balance of power. Ultimately, following your own morals is the best way to make a decision. Personally, I refused the Bishop, politely but firmly, and kept the matter to myself.

Morals? All well and good, I suppose, and I do generally respect the Duchess. But I found myself agreeing more with Mr. Huffam, in this case.

Sorry to revive a significantly dead thread, but I've only just got up to BiDI 5 myself, & before I do anything rash - does betraying the Bishop lock you out of his breeding program afterwards? I've just traded in all of the Empyrean beasties for a Bifurcated Owl & not yet replaced them, and I'd hate to not be able to get them back again by jumping into this resolution too quickly.

No, that doesn't happen - up until now at least: the Bishop may have some unpleasant things to say to you in the future, but for now you're safe. Though your decision will lock/unlock a special destiny for you on Hallowmas/Christmas/False-Summer and the like. edited by Rupho Schartenhauer on 9/20/2014
