the assumption that Imogen (and previously Ashton) never recieved any assistance from the gods because they didn't pray "correctly" is interesting to me. is there some specific procedure for acceptable prayer in Exandria? if you don't do it right is it like texting the wrong number and the Gods just don't get the message? or are they just putting cries for help that don't follow their formatting and content guidelines at the bottom of the pile lmao

#bc if that's the case the desperate people who failed to meet those standards are not who i would blame in this situation #not even just bc of the power imbalance but also bc knowledge is classed and culture- and location-dependent among other things #even if ashton or imogen understood there was a 'correct' way to pray wld they have easy access to that knowledge?#esp for a topic this personal. if there are temples around would either feel safe or welcomed being there and asking abt it?#critical role #crposting #all of this hinging on 'assumption' bc we only know a small bit of imogen's history of prayer and even less of ashton's #and have recieved no indication on the actual reason why their prayers weren't answered
