This comic follows on from the Previous comic which will almost certainly provide context.

This is peak political strategy, we all know it.

Wait… Since when is Konsi a Senior Priestess? When did that happen?

I think I probably forgot to specify during the date, but the promotion there leapfrogged over regular Priestess. She went from Junior priestess to Senior Priestess.

Difficult to get all the little details from campaign events into speech bubble format while also trying to tell a story haha.

Konsi’s the most powerful priestess in the temple (she’s actually more powerful than the High Priestess)

Nice, Missed the previous episode, I tend to like when the PC find out they put themselves in a political mess by messing with the wrong person, suddently the game prep becomes so All these persons hate you, you’re remaining friends start to doubt, and both the city guards and assassins guild wants you, what do you do?

And indeed, in general sitting down crying and doing nothing isn’t a solution

The reason the temple of Tymora in Waterdeep is so wealthy is that they uh…

While they don’t openly promote a prosperity gospel, they don’t prevent the nobles of the city from subscribing to it.

Always happy to see these comics on my feed. Usually there’s even couple older ones I haven’t yet read :)

One of the reasons that it’s only every other week or so is because I space them out with other silliness that also comes into my head…

This is exactly the kind of challenge I love. How can Konsi do all the good she wants to do without damaging the church’s reputation? Does she need to become a bit of a revolutionary, change the status quo to improve the lives of those in need? If she does, the voices saying her church is interfering in the government will only get stronger, so it’s a fight for public opinion. And how far do her funds actually go when she’s working on the scale of the landed gentry? What kind of adventurer powers can help in a situation like this? Is the government secretly run by Mindflayers? There’s only one way to find out

Yeah, it’s this kind of content that I think tabletop excels at where nothing else does - you can really get into the weeds when it comes to the wider ranging implications of what you’re doing.

These characters started in Dragon Heist (Alexandrian Remix) - having done all of the content in it… The powers that be in the city have good reason to be concerned about these idiots.
