That's what I mean about how lowlanders' love of keeping things separate. The gods are everywhere among us, so why would we confine worship to a single place? The augur does his best to interpret the signs the gods send us, so that we live in harmony with them...or at least don't offend them. But worship can happen anywhere, it's not as though we all pile in at his home. Lady, there wouldn't be enough room.
The Chantry teaches that the Maker works in mysterious ways, right? Or something like that? It's the same with the gods; they aren't like us, don't think or work as we do. But if I fail in battle, I have reason to wonder if Hakkon is displeased with me and go to the augur to work out how to make it right. Maybe I have to make an offering, or go on a quest. Something like that.
