The Tongues spell will help, as it works by absorbing meaning directly from other’s minds, but we will still need to mingle as much as possible with the people of Winterfell and force ourselves to listen and speak as they do.”
>(You have about two more hours of today’s last Tongues left, and no Comprehend Languages. Lord Stark et al will not return until after that. Teleportation lag will be corrected for tomorrow, and you’ll be on the local schedule.)>(1) Start putting together a more coherent plan of action for the next month or two. >(2) Delve back into research and experiments. >(3) Tour Winterfell with Eva and/or Anya, investigating its unseen mysteries. >(4) Tour Winterfell as a whole party, get a head start on mingling.>(5) Have breakfast, socialise more with your party indoors; your choice of who with and whether one-on-one or all together. >(6) Write-in. You know, I didn’t at all intend to invent half a religion until it just sorta happened halfway through writing this chapter.

There are no priests or druids, and the godswood doesn’t even have a groundskeeper.
