There's that but there are people in the past that tried to remove the veil of the mysteries of the world but got screwed over by someone. Perfect example is the renaissance era where a lot of people are persecuted by the church when they tried to study the natural world.Ya know, it makes me wonder. Since we all know that supernatural stuff isn't real, these wandering priestess and exorcists from centuries ago were really just con artists—selling nonsense and performing fake rituals for money or trade goods.
It was a whole industry perpetuated by superstition and tradition. These poor villagers and peasants who lived hundreds of years ago, barely surviving at the time, gave up precious resources for nothing. =/
But did you know that rituals are also a part of the human psyche? Without them, we are faced alone with the uncertainty of life. Having a daily routine like having breakfast, brushing teeth, and taking a shower wasn't part of human life thousands of years ago. But nowadays, if you don't shower for a few days, you feel ill. Rituals have become a human routine. Festivals or prayers to a god at the beginning of a season can lift people's spirits. Even if gods might not be real, in the minds of common folks, they are there to aid their lives, hoping for abundant crops and the safety of their daily life to remain the same as yesterday.Ya know, it makes me wonder. Since we all know that supernatural stuff isn't real, these wandering priestess and exorcists from centuries ago were really just con artists—selling nonsense and performing fake rituals for money or trade goods.

Wanted to comment this as well. Thank you for verbalizing it.As this point you might as well just come out with it. Even if the mom didn't already know (and it seems like she does), she kind of gave the vibe that the truth would be nbd to her.
Con artist know that they are faking things up, those people (most of them at least) actually believe in what they are doingYa know, it makes me wonder.
