You order housing for a new deity to be built within your compound. The cherub nods, preforms a few quick calculations, and informs you that the project will likely be complete around the end of the decade.
With that taken care of, you direct the discussion towards relations with Char-Dis and her followers.

Sun-nut informs you that a follower of Char-Dis has heard of your alliance with his goddess and has been trying to reach out in friendship. "His name is Dull, and he is the leader of fierce pack of nomad dwarf land pirates. I've been turning his envoys away thus far, because Dull has a personal reputation for torture that I find distasteful, and because I was hoping to avoid involving myself in your schemes to forgive my father's killer, but if you command it, I shall attempt to befriend the pirate."

Your own court lacks ideas on how to best befriend with the Cave Goddess directly. They warn that Char-Dis is both paranoid and fiercely protective of her independence, and may interpret you going out of your way to be nice to her as an attempt to make her your vassal or lure her to your pantheon. The warnings of your court are based on mere speculation, however, so you personally doubt that there is any harm in sending her the sort of generic gift that deities commonly exchange.
As for the Land Pirate Dull:
A: Sun-nut should reach out to him, and attempt to establish a military alliance.
B: Sun-nut should reach out to him, and attempt to establish some sort of trade deal.
C: Sun-nut should stick to his gut, and refuse to deal with Dull.
D: If Sun-nut has issue with Dull's propensity for torture, he should send the imperial legion against the Land Pirate!
E: I don't trust Sun-nut to play nice with Char-Dis' minion. After this conference, I shall visit the pirate myself.
As for Char-Dis:
A: I will not send her a generic gift for no reason!
B: I will make her a minor artifact that she may bestow upon a worthy follower!
C: I will make her a greater artifact worthy of the Cave Goddess herself!
D: I will send her my heroic young son Cider to raise as her own!
E: I will send her my heroic young daughter Kekkonshiki to raise as her own!
F: I will spend some essence to birth a divine infant that Char-Dis may raise as her own!
G: I will pay a visit to Char-Dis' bedchambers, spend some essence, and create a divine daughter that the Cave Goddess may raise!
