How else is she going to get access to a Lunar ritual, or enough knowledge to hijack one?

Or (ignoring the meaningless polysyllables), one of he cleaners.

As likely as anyone else on either side. It's only another religion, and a young one at that.

Quite possibly. I think for this to be useful, the Lunar is a PC, or a contact of a PC, so exact identity is campaign-dependent.

Yes - she can be support.

Works for me.

True - so the grain in question is whichever one the PC in the campaign specialises in. Kallyr won't care which grain gets used, it'll be whichever one she can get the ritualist for.

Maybe.... she's the wrong aspect, really, but with magic even stronger than Kallyr's, she could have a go.

Oh, nice! I expect he's got a part in the ritual, too, husband protector of some sort.

And she's right :)
