I don't have a great deal of time to play these days, with marriage and school, but perusing the forum is something I manage to get done atleast a couple times a day.

Her religion was firmly established in the mud before I took her name, and is still solid (the only difference being there's nobody tattooing for it, but the tattoo was not really all that great anyway except for roleplaying purposes). The shrine you asked about was removed when I left, but there are still symbolic places and religious icons that a player can utilize.
