Prayer > Magic

I'm currently trying to work out the magical logistics of maintaining lines of communication across an enormous dungeon complex. So far, it's been difficult to find the right spells and magic items to make it possible for enough creatures to communicate with each other with great enough frequency to be feasible.

Fortunately, communicating with God is much easier. We don't need to expend spell slots or use magic items to talk to God, we can begin the conversation instantly (as an Action, as it were), and the duration of the conversation is whatever we want it to be. We can pray to God across any distance, which is fortunate, because I don't even know where exactly God physically is, and we can do it as many times per day as we want to.

It's a really perfect system. If only magic were as easy.
