Thanks! Although I'm rereading that first paragraph and thinking "yikes that rabbit is repetitive". I guess I liked the bit of lore that says "Mystra tends to the weave and is the weave" so much I felt the need to say it 4 times! Thanks for the generous reading.

I guess that is consistent with what D&D Beyond says in the Sworn and Beholden section, which is that relationships between warlocks and patrons can be like that between cleric and deity, but also might be more like master and apprentice. . . . snip . . .

Perfect! Don't want to derail but it will be interesting to see what provisions are in the contract - is there an evil non compete clause in Wyll's contract?

Anway as @erastes110 says choosing a deity is an important part of the game - especially any game that takes place in the realms. In the realms oaths should be overseen by one of the gods. It would be fun to have a redemption quest for oathbreakers just like BG2 had one for fallen paladins.
