Praying

Pleased:

• If standing in the dark, attempt to ignite what you're wielding to grant you a light source.

• Hardens anything you have wielded in your hands, with the item sparkling and glowing as shown below.
  • This can fail, resulting in the tingling message below.
  • Loricatus can only harden his aligned materials, and your (relationship / 50) must be greater than the material's Int requirement.
  • Failing that, there is still a 1-in-(relationship / 50) chance that a weapon made of an aligned material will be hardened anyway.

 Your item sparkles and glows like it was reforged by invisible hands.
   OR
 You feel a slight tingling in your hands.

• Has a 10% chance to grant you a scroll of repair.
