In an alternate timeline, Earl Valiant Whitekeep catches wind that the elder God Wothyn is regaining strength thanks to the return of his son and his rival. With his wife heavily pregnant, he begs the elder God for help averting the curse. As he's made a deal with the hangman god and worded his request foolishly, this can only end well for everyone not named Valiant Whitekeep. -- Deathshead419
Whitekeep owed allegiance to Tyr by long and ancient tradition. The ancient Warlock may have begged a demon for the power to escape; but Tyr was more trustworthy about justice. Specifically the justice required to keep the Olikents off their collective asses. It was a long-standing tradition that left temples to Tyr all over the Earldom, and not a lot of other temples to anyone else.
Therefore Earl Valiant Stormwight Hallowfine Whitekeep, fourth of his name, had to go out of his way to pray to other gods. Being the Earl, he could not travel anywhere outside his castle without a bodyguard, honour guard, secretary, seneschal, three dogsbodies and at least two of the castle dogs who thought they could be useful. They weren't, but that's dogs for you.
At least his seneschal had researched and knew the way to the nearest Temple of All Gods. Valiant needed all of the gods for this. He was truly that desperate.
