Take her up on the offer

“Okay let’s do it!” You say pumping your fist.

“That’s the spirit. Here, take this. You’ll need a focus to channel your magic through.” She hands you an gear shaped amulet you recognize to represent the sign of Mechus. The gnomish god of invention.

“Hm, one thing lass. Gotta admit I’m not very religious. Is that gonna be a problem?”

“Slightly… okay rather than focusing on belief in a god like Mechus, let’s focus on an ideal or objective.”

“Objective like killing orcs?”

“Maybe something less violent? What’s like a tenet or something you believe in that can inspire you?”

Good question… what is important to me?
