It does not say that he is a priest of Eloele or worships her - he is a
priest of Haelyn.
But due to his actions he receives nothing from Haelyn, his spells come
from Eloele who seem to be please by his
stealthy plans and such.

Hello!
Ruins of Empire, p. 24/25 "Though a priest of Haelyn, he draws no power
from that god - it comes instead from Eloele, the goddess of stealth"

Thanks. It must be something with the way the Gods look at each other. Perhaps Eloele does it to show support for Haeyln.

These gods regard each other as foes. I think its meant to be a set up for
intrigue for players in Talanie.

I had rediscovered the fact that they were foes as I flipped through the conversion manual. I would have to agree it is probably meant for intrigue. My suggestion would be that Haelyn would not like this and would take care of it by letting others in the church know the truth and have this enemy eliminated! This could be a great adventure for your campaign!

Torias Griene is one of the examples I was referring to. Rhober Nichalier is another. If he is the head of the largest and most powerful church in all of Anuire, and is the Lawful Good Priest of Haelyn to boot, then shouldn't he be putting more effort into spreading the faith, than acquiring wealth? It says that he spends gold liberally in expansion of the faith, but at what cost? And as for good old Torias, in the BR comp game he is listed as LG. And yet in the Talinie sourcebook, it sure looks like he offed his boss. A little confusing isn't it.
