It is not your time yet, blessed one. The rooftop chapel is reserved for the General's private contemplation - save for those he chooses to ascend.

Involvement

Act Two

Radija is just outside the ornate door which leads to the rooftop. If  Ketheric Thorm is already on the roof, a party member can ask for an audience with him, which she refuses.

Unlike the Zealots, Adepts, and other members of the Cult of the Absolute, it appears Sarabayle and the other Mistresses of Souls are fully aware of what the Absolute is and the religious hoax they're perpetrating. This greater understanding (and accompanying disdain) is shared by the other high-ranking Myrkulite necromancers serving  Ketheric Thorm, with  Kressa Bonedaughter bemoaning the weak servility of the infected she is presented with, and  Balthazar using the player character's worm-infested status as an expletive.

Radija hints that the Cult of the Absolute goes well beyond mind flayer infections.
