Probably not the best idea in terms of being grounded as mortals compared to talking it out, but what the hell we're exalts and this is really cool.
It'd also be interesting to get Ankou's opinion of it from direct observation, since at one point he had a similar job to ours.
Also, not threadmarked @DragonParadox
The welsh demigod who somehow has this on her character sheet?
Ye gods and little fishes this kid must live in an actual bubble.
I'm sure we've talked about it before, but I really like the budding theme for our circle. Being a living afterlife surrounded by people concerned with caring for the dead would be pretty neat if we can maintain it.

Lydia is saying this?

She is of a lineage that guarded, guided, and housed the dead, so this makes sense. It also makes me wonder if we might have scared the piss out of people like Tuzi, who also fall in that category. It might be worth reaching out to her again purely to see if you needed to be an exalt to have that good a resonance or not.

- Fixed
- Lydia at least knew she was not a human, unlike Connie.
It's funny because we bring her to our Kingdom and introduce her as the goddess of death and our people are going to be like "goddess of what?"
There are unfallen or mostly unfallen Yama Kings. Perhaps several of them. They just generally have a lot less influence in the mortal world because if they haven't fallen that means they're staying in their lane and not interfering in Earthly matters as that's not the job that Heaven gave them.
The main exception is the Yama King that's also an ocean deity of the Pacific, so has mortal worshipers and servants because of that.
It would be interesting to visit her realm, or the Hell of Never Dying Sorrow to visit Bao Zhong, the last unfallen and uncursed Wan Xian outside of Heaven.

Visiting to more then one city seems like going too thin. Going population wise it would be like touristing China and India in one day and thinking you got everything.

They know what death is, it's just that for them it's less a terrible mystery and more a cosmic waiting room.
Also, I think Molly is technically their death goddess by virtue of the wheel being one of her soul-organs.
That is neat, if we have time a visit would be fun.
If nothing else spiking the wheels of the thousand hells by helping the upstanding Yama Kings might be worthwhile.
I don't think the goal is everything, just to give a taste of what happened.
Exploring it fully is a very long term thing, especially because we probably want to space it out so it doesn't consume the quest.
Personally I think a good place to start is food culture. Start bringing home food once a week from different places, learning a bit of the history behind it and sharing that with Molly's earth side connections as we go.
That lets us dip our toes in while keeping the rest of the setting involved.
DPE makes it hard to do disguises in the courts. We would need that 5 dot disguise charm first.

We probably can't pull off tourist, but there's something else we could try that would let us wander off in relative privacy:
Lord of the Land hasn't really come into play yet, and large portions of the FCF aren't really habitable or even frequently visited. We could start in the palace and then go out into the wastes to play with our godlike power over the environment while we talk.

You guys could do this yeah, though Lydia would need a suit to breathe and stay warm.

Not disguise, dress. Less "I am not the Empress" more "I am the Empress, but am currently here in the role as a tourist. Please stop making this weird."

Gods damn it. Lydia and the girl's mother are going to have to get together and give her the talk at some point. Every White Court has a countdown timer to murder attached to, well, pretty much puberty and puberty-related activities.

Isn't that intentional? Keep it hidden so that when you do snap, the shock exacerbates your trauma which then makes it much easier to convince the teen to "embrace their true selves" and entrench themselves in White Court society
