If a character knows without a doubt that the gods exist (being related to some of them, let's say), is placing the ferryman's coin in a dead friend's mouth an act of piety or pragmatism?
Current Mood:curious
Current Location:shhhhh
Current Music:Pirates of the Caribbean, Curse of the Black Pearl
Unless it's for someone the character doesn't like - then it could be either. What are the possible consequences for the character if their relatives find out they haven't been doing so? If the consequences are bad, definitely pragmatism.
