IMO Uleria is the goddess of Love and sacred prostitution is merely a side effect. Is there any cult for which worshippers don't bring some kind of tithe ?

Uleria is tainted with Disorder, so what ? what about a Trickster ? Is Eurmal a demon ?
Order is not a dominant characteristic of Heortlings. Order is a characteristic of THE bad guy aka the oppressive evil emperor. To have a Trickster in your clan is both a blessing and a curse but the balance is positive.
So must it be with Uleria.

Marriage, Lust and Love are three different concepts.

Lust is rejected. This is supported by the myth in which Ragnalar is driven mad in the pit of Sex.

Marriage is looked for as supported by myths with Ernalda.

The only myth about Love that I know is Uleria and the Boggles It is clearly a myth accepted by Heortling even if it is a GL construct.

IMO Uleria protects Marriage from Lust by Love. If Uleria is denied, the community will be a prey to Thed and succubus.

Examples given are about feats to cause Lust not to cause Love. Ulerian feats would rather be about safe sex (avoid pregnancy, avoid incest) and community of non-kin as the Vinga temple of Pavis in Tradetalk 8.
