Town Gratitude supports sermon attendance and is different from Village Reputation. Merchant sales, Town Orders and reward scrolls can add it, while sermons spend it. If the storage cap is already full, another reward cannot provide the same usable increase as one collected after spending.
Merchant sales have limits
Eligible products display the Gratitude reward. Each product has a weekly allowance and the merchant has an overall limit, so a sale can continue paying money after it stops paying Gratitude. These weekly limits reset on Pride Day.
Check the full transaction quote. Razeg’s firsthand example offered 1 silver 69 copper for 50 Boards even though the single-item display showed 4 copper. Multiplying the displayed unit quote by the stack size overstated that transaction. The example describes that merchant state, not a universal current price.
When preparing a sermon, compare the missing Gratitude with eligible goods and the remaining allowances. Selling a scarce quest material for no additional Gratitude can delay the task without filling the church.
Order deadlines
| Order type | Delivery condition |
|---|---|
| Urgent | Complete the whole order before the next Pride Day count |
| Cumulative | Partial deliveries remain credited across weeks |
Accept orders at the board on Pride Day and deliver goods to the Town Warehouse. Accepting the order does not require carrying its goods at that moment, and it does not deliver them automatically.
The final weekly count matters for an urgent order. Putting its last materials into an unrelated home chest is not delivery to the Town Warehouse.
Raise capacity before collecting more
Repairing houses provides green population resources used through Linda at the Dockside Club. Increasing the town’s supported population raises the practical ceiling for larger congregations and stored Gratitude. A shop restoration and a house restoration serve different immediate purposes.
Reward scrolls can be held until there is capacity for their payout. Check the displayed cap before using several after a battle, then plan the sermon that spends the resource. Town restoration covers the housing and Linda sequence.
