People that go to the wapentake become Initiates, Practitioners and/or Orderlies of the Bull. (even though there's no "Initiate" level worshipper of the bull in Theist societies).

So you'd get:
Affinities (like an initiate) and/or stand-alone feats, Practice spirits,
Spells.

While the rules don't say so, I'd make going to the eternal battle a Heroquest, and each visit would only get you one ability (Affinity, stand-alone feat, spell, spirit). But you'd be able to ignore the restrictions on the form that the magic takes. So a theist could get a spirit or spell, an animist get a spell, affinity or stand-alone feat, and a sorcerer a spirit or affinity/stand-alone feat. You could also learn the magical abilities like Spirit Face or Soul Vision that were appropriate to your "worship level".
