Earth Bet: House of the Sun (Cultist Simulator/Worm)

[X] Plan: Of Dreams and Magic
-[X] On work and the people you preach to.
--[X] It is simply a busy month, you'll still be spending plenty of time preaching though (Gain two extra actions, will not be noticed if not done often.)
-[X] On furthering the cause.
--[X] Take money from the Discretionary Reserve (50 Funds, for Teresa)
-[X] The Mansus, a place of contradictions. It calls to you, reach out.
--[X] The Woods
---[X] There must be something you haven't found, keep exploring
--[X] The White Plane
---[X] Traverse through the Overgrown Orchard (Mansus Expedition)
-[X] On learning the Lores.
--[X] Lady Mylissa is willing to teach, request a lesson
---[X] Knock
-[X] On the goal, of rites, rituals, and summoned creatures
--[X] Create a Ritual
-[X] Cast a Ritual
--[X] The Attention of the Laws (Edge)
--[X] Summon Teresa, the Baldomerian (Sacrifice fading Sun Spark)
--[X] The Reflection of the Tapestry: "Easiest expedition that rewards a Level 5+ Edge artifact weapon"
-[X] On Sun Sparks and their leadership (These are actions exclusive to Sun Sparks)
--[X] Prepare a plan for somebody, granting them a single reroll
---[X] Emir
-[X] On Charlotte, and her aid (These are actions exclusive to Charlotte)
--[X] Acquire supplies and tools to aid your research

Simplified breakdown:

6 AP + 3 Follower AP

1) Knock lesson
2) Summon Teresa
3) Woods exploration
4) Overgrown Orchard expedition
5) Perform the Reflection of the Tapestry - Level 5 weapon
6) Create a Ritual (mental malus removal)

C) Acquire ritual research supplies
SS1) Sun's Plan on Emir
SS2) Sacrifice for ritual

AotL is on Edge because basically everything in here uses Knowledge, but AotL Edge could at least help if combat in the Mansus happens for whatever reason.

Edit: Forgot to switch the AP option, it's correct now.

@Greymere
Dreams and Magic isn't teaching Damsel due to our low Edge, correct?

These look the same to me though?
 
I think scrying is better done by Teresa. With that in mind...

6 AP:
- Knock lesson, we are almost at realization
- Edge lesson, get it to 2 before teaching Ashley
- Summon Teresa(we are unlikely to learn her old name unless we find her books, but she is Teresa, without an 'h')
- Explore the Woods
- Explore the Orchard
- Teach Ashley
2 Follower AP:
- Sun Spark gives us a reroll
- I like @des-pair-2 plan to give Charlotte a long-term project

So I want to mention some ideas just to float them as directions for later:

1- Reforging Our Gods. We can design our own rituals, and more so than any other Cultist Simulator experience I've seen we've converted an entire town to the cause and have a broadly acceptable religion tying directly to the shards of our deity(deities). The Mansus and The Wake are one and the same. Can we mix the ink with citrinas? Perhaps something pink and unceasing? What would happen if The Count began again? If we ritually observe the dawn with enough others, invoking the right names, can we alter the FORGE ritual we have to begin REFORGING our god(s) and mending their wounds?

2- Expansion in Boston, or rather Expansion in general. The MAPC (Metropolitan Area Planning Council) covers 101 cities and towns in the region of Greater Boston. Expanding directly into Boston to keep a tab on big fish is a good idea . . . but what about rolling up more of the outer cities and towns before larger inroads to Boston Proper?

The PRT has many faults but I don't hate that they centralize as much cape work as they can into major centers. They simply can't get the mileage those of The Mansus can get out of non-cape personnel/converts and Capes love to centralize anyway. We had exactly 3 capes in this town and only two were heroes? What a steal! I say we adjust course and aim to roll up more of the small towns surrounding Boston in "Greater Boston". Duno how hard it'd be to become a major influence on the Greater Boston Food Bank or The Foodbank of Western Massachusetts but those are good angles along the lines of what we did here.

Getting membership into America's Second Harvest would be a good goal. America's Second Harvest gets a rebrand to "Feeding America" in 2008, and we'd basically be continuing the same way we started, but with a few national-level ties. I suspect our dear Lady wouldn't mind becoming a major backer of "Feeding America", it seems right up her alley in fact.

3- Theological Connections. We shouldn't forget that Emir is part of an approved theological position and faith. Maybe other small town priests, pastors, preachers and the like are similarly doing everything on their own. The more soft power we have in all the areas the PRT and most Capes (except maybe Accord but even Accord has an arrogance about him that can leave him fixated on Boston) don't pay attention to the easier it'll be to evade, inconvenience or otherwise pressure the big fish when we do make waves in Boston.
