i am enjoying this story but there is one issue. the cult requires self-mutilation but there is no reason why. its giving desert fathers, but the man who burned his fingers did so to remind him of the fires of hell. the women call their self-mutilation 'sacrifices' so my only guess is that due to the state of the earth, they have nothing to offer as sacrifices besides their own blood, not animal blood or crops.
