Maybe, but the valyrians had an entire culture mass producing slaves that are than basically sacrificed, there is no real knowledge what of it was just wanting more power and what was required of them, for the example you gave, the old gods also love sacrifices but they don't require it, so sacrificing people dying in wars and raids could be of massive advantage, I suspect the weirwoods will grow faster, and we know the hammer of waters was the result of big enough sacrifice.
That sounds like a cheap attempt by people not wanting to put the work, I suspect every god has its one method of sacrifice, the old gods require putting the corpses or blood on the trees, Rhllor want you to burn people, I suspect you can't just say those people, if anyone dies here, are yours.
Maybe it does, I am not a wizard, but it doesn't seem to me like it would work in canon, on the other hand, magic is nearly dead in canon, who knows what is possible.

Huh, Big Bobby B is acting... not like a drunken lout? Also our dear Tay is a bit melancholy. Edit: Also Tay talking about her old friends and world, imagine a pantheon based on the Undersiders, she firmly has her first believer, he's terrified but also compassionate. |

Good to see it again. Sarella finding ancient horror - made it true,she need good husband. And dire wolves as therapists - excellent idea. |

She is good enough champion she can probably throw her weight with the old gods or the gods of valyria and they would be like, sure, here some blessings. With the old gods she can use her command over insect and other animals to spread weirwood forest over all the continent in a few years (giving her warging continental scale), the gods of valyria are probably more into the making her individually powerful rather than increasing her reach (stronger magic, access to dragons, their steel and magical fortesses), those guys are probably the strongest sponsors there are, but I expect their price in sacrifices will be worse than Rhllor. |

| Can't you use a battlefield for sacrifices? Or a pirates raid? By dedicating those who die raiding your shores to the gods in return for strength and power you are only getting benefits! |

The gods of valyria on the other hand aren't exactly known, beyond the obvious that if you made contact with them and they help you, they can probably give you valyrian things, but their price is probably steep, how steep we don't know for sure. |

| What about a ritual at the beginning of a season that dedicates all those who die in said season to a specific God? As in those who die in winter are given to the summer gods to beg for the return of summer and those that die in summer are dedicated to the gods of winter so that the world may rest for a time. |
The tourney events, her sister mentioned a few new events were being tried out for the first time at this grand tourney at ophelia's suggestion.
This right here, i believe, i meant to mean lifes instead of fles.
My head canon, given she's in the kings good graces, is that at some point during the night when she was wandering back, she was singing "Help me Bob, I'm bully in the alley" and giggling to herself.
. The taylor scene made my heart wrench though, like oof, ow, the cost of being a chosen one yeah. Also the way you've made this into genuine and nigh wholesome poly rep is just smothering me in joy Ohohohoho!!!! The time of updates is upon us! I really love what you've done with the whole crossover! Taylor being an emotional drunk and all the various characters interweaving with one another is such a damn delight to read
