Behind the Scenes
"Nedum vereri" is Latin, and it has a double meaning. "Nedum" is a conjunction meaning both "still less" and "much more", while "vereri," the passive infinitive form of "vereor," means "to be revered/respected" or "to be feared." Thus, their name means both "still less to be respected" (alluding to their mysterious fall from grace as priestesses) and "much more to be feared." Their scripted messaging plays off the second meaning, with the priestesses soothing and calming you, saying you have no reason to fear them, yet they can transform into a grotesque form that causes you to bolt in terror, and when they ward you, it paralyzes you with fear. They are somewhat telepathic, knowing your name on sight.
