Golden Path
Gods won't help the people who are not willing to help themselves first. They will not just magically wiggle their finger and make your problems disappear in a poof. You have to get up, do things and take a chance that it will work out. You have to risk it - that's what living is about.Do not let the flashy looks deceive you, this casino belongs to the second largest (and the strictest) church in Taun - the Order of the Golden Chalice. Establishments like that fully fund the order and as such it is totally independent on the support of the state, because where is money, there are friends. You cannot buy things here, you can only gamble with your fortunes. First admission is free, you just have to sign your name in the book. Simple, right? Each visit gives you an opportunity to peek in further into the runnings of the church and its games. This particular establishment is open 24 hours a day any day. The priests here must go through rigorous training and it shows, their every little movement or gesture is almost mechanically precise. There is a lot of bowing, kissing the floor and saying how amazing gold is and how cool it would be to have full pockets of it. You are not allowed to choose the game, they are chosen for you based on what type of prayer you perform or aid you are seeking. The church never refuses. It just always charge something. Despite a lot of backlash and prejudice associated with people worshipping money and riches, the church gains on popularity every single year thorough all levels of the society. Also, this was the first casino that started issuing paper "chips" that quickly evolved into sort of paper money that can be used at various merchants thorough the city as the church is a trusted organisation.

I plan to expand on the bows and games later, probably with the other SC prompt.
