	When it comes to recovering from living under the malice of miasma pillars, it is the people like the ~~Sandfishers~~, the Yerende, or the Ketsov who would be best able to testify on what it is like to learn how to live without the crushing weight of the Druj yoke on their shoulders. A lecture will be available to the Synod following the Summer Solstice, '''Courage in Convalescence','' which will see priests go and speak to these groups to hear their accounts of what it has been like to make the transition.

	Priests who partake will compile a summary of various accounts in time for the Autumn Equinox, and become members of the Courage Assembly. This report will not contain any particular action points, commissions or actions that the machinery of state might employ to dispel fear, but will instead help priests understand the dark scars in the hearts of those who suffered the cruelty of the Buruk Tepel. The hope is that it will help make them more able to provide pastoral support to those they hope to liberate.

	The most prominent group in the Empire that consistently works to offer succour to those who have suffered the imposition of slavery or the rule of the Druj is the Proffered Hand Network. Through various offices, the [[Lady of the Proffered Hand]], the [[Abbess of Reconciliation]], the [[Curator of Memories]], the [[Guide to the Lost]], the [[Hearthtender of the Unbroken]], and the [[Hand to the Dance]], the Proffered Hand reaches out to offer shelter and support to those who need it most.		The most prominent group in the Empire that consistently works to offer succour to those who have suffered the imposition of slavery or the rule of the Druj is the Proffered Hand Network.

	But one criticism of the network is that it focuses too much on integrating former slaves into Imperial life, too much on finding them employment and work within the network - and not enough on the physical wellbeing of those it aims to help. The Abbess of Reconciliation receives an income of herbs each season from the Abbey that could be provided to those who need it most. Sinecures and ministries may provide an effective return on investment, but that is categorically not the best way to help people who desperately need support and assistance.
