Alex
Alex grinned, "If you're around when I have to do so, I'll gladly borrow them." The pirate shrugged, "I get the feeling that I have to do these steps in order, so it'll have to be after I get the pelt tailored." The fire burned brighter as the cleric stoked it. The pirate could already see ashes forming around the base of the oldest logs.
It didn't come as much to a surprise to Alex that Darkeye was a religious man. He had that air to him, that of a wise priest. The kind that actually cared and didn't just try to convert people that is. The type that deserved their due respect regardless of one's own beliefs. The concern he presented was valid, however.
Alex hummed, "You do have a point. You're an Accepted, right? The Gods here are most fond of them, so that'll give you a bit of luck. But it might be best not to mention your God in front of them. I'm not sure how that'll go." She didn't know Caido's deity's well enough to judge such a thing.
"But from what I can tell, Frey is very laid back. They might be a good place to start if you wish to meet any of the Heralds personally." The deity had been very patient and free-spirited in the brief interaction Alex had had with them. Perhaps Frey would be most welcoming to an Outlander? She wasn't sure. "I think if you approach them genuinely, you might have a chance with Frey", she added.
Darkeye's question pulled a small grin from Alex. "Maybe." It wasn't so simple as that. "I wanted to protect my crew. Aligning myself and by proxy, them, with a God ensures some level of protection." She paused, "And although I'm not the most religious person, the Old Gods are who I follow and will always follow. Given that I'm a pirate, Frey and Rae seemed like the best choice in terms of choosing who to speak to."
Her grin widened. "I'm not one to just sit by either. When I made my choice, I planned on contributing. I sought guidance on how to help. Perhaps a direction at the very least. To fulfil that purpose."

The ocean bows to none
But it'll dance with the moon
