Talk:Chapelry of Surwich and the Morass/@comment-4681356-20140122132449

I will poke the other guys involved and see what the general consensus is. My understanding is that 1) Gilneas doesn't have chapelries 2) it doesn't matter who settled the land, ecclesiastical jurisdictions are not usually determined by anything but the church 3) the only way diocesan boundaries can change is by archiepiscopal will or some agreement. We're not talking about the boundaries of economic/social/political change here, we're talking about lines that people that have never even been to Surwich have drawn to designate that priests from this cathedral should go there.

This is reason for some good role-play here between the Stormwind clergy and the people of Surwich, maybe some "outlander" priests getting thrown out of town (if they're not Gilnean) when we assign one there or maybe a riot staged by a local priest that demands the Diocese of Stormwind give control to the Diocese of Gilneas. I mean, there are a number of ways we could role-play out a change, but just deciding that the change is made simply because the "NPCs don't want you there" gives us IC gaps and questions of why and when. We don't gerrymander the Dwarven District for the Diocese of Ironforge. We could, but the RP just hasn't happened. Again, I'll talk to the people involved and see what they think would be best.
