Ophion took a deep breath. This would not be easy to explain.

"Well, it is a complicated situation. Most dracon realms prohibit the worship of at least one deity which is considered dangerous for whatever reason. In most cities, if a god is [i]not[/i] on a prohibited list, worship of that god is allowed. Except for Hekaga and a few other places, where if a god is not on a permissible list, worship of that god is forbidden. Since your god isn't technically on any list in this city, you should be allowed to worship the Reaper. What I meant earlier was that it might make others think you are cavorting with similar gods who are actually banned. Like Sem. He's a god of necromancy and the perversion of the flesh. His idea is that living things are just raw material to be fashioned into monstrosities once they perish. His followers call it 'being reforged.' Disgusting stuff." 

Once more, he took a deep breath.

"As to your other question, yes, dracon worship consists or prayer, ritual, sacrifice, and the maintenance of hold objects, among other aspects of reverence. How the gods work depends on the god in question. For some gods, their mode of operation is a mystery. Others spell it all out in a book. Still others entrust those secrets to their clergy in an oral tradition."
