The City has sometimes been called "A Home For Every God", and that is not far from the truth. With a few exceptions, The City has welcomed and assimilated every faith that has entered its gates. Each God has an area of special attention, and the residents of The City take full advantage of that, praying to Gren for healing when they are sick, offering a lamb to Peschin when they are negotiating a difficult contract or even spilling some of their own blood at the altar of Huec when they wish to get revenge for a slight. In times of crisis to The City, the temples of Wrallat, the patron god of The City, have worshippers massed outside the door. The two exceptions to this ecumenism are the Dwarves and the Orcs. As with so much else about their culture, the religion of the Dwarves is shrouded in mystery. Its rites occur underground, and the Dwarves never discuss their faith with outsiders. All that is known is that they recognize one God and one God only, insisting that all other gods are fractured reflections of the True God. The Orcs, on the other hand, have a more animistic faith, recognizing individual spirits for almost everything in the World and negotiating with those spirits through the services of a shaman as needed.

It is much remarked upon by sages that all of the above methods of securing Divine Favor seem to work equally well. Efforts to ask the Gods or their servitors about this have at best been ignored. Persistent inquirers tend to meet particularly unpleasant fates in very public places. This has led to a significant lack of in-depth research into the secrets of the Gods.

Direct manifestation by the Gods is not unknown, but rare enough to garner prominent notice. Appearances by the servitors of the Gods - Huec's Blood Harvesters, Wrallat's Handmaidens and the Physicks of Gren especially - are more common, but only in relative terms. The signs of their pleasure or displeasure are frequently trumpeted by their priests, but this appears to be a matter of interpretation as much as fact - is the disease ravaging a neighborhood a sign they have incurred Gren's wrath, or that a rival has made a powerful enough sacrifice to Huec to get a drastic revenge? Most City residents will make offerings to both Gods, just to be on the safe side.
