Talk:Celestial Ministry

Mist Oracle
Quote from the article, copied straight out of the manual: "Mist Oracle, the highest position in the bureaucracy" This isn't the Oracle of the Mists we're talking about here, is it? -- 04:20, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Well, the article is actually my lousy translation of the Japanese GW official site. I have no clue what the manual says.  The name does sound sufficiently similar that they are probably the same entity, though the Suun article gives no hints about it. - 04:59, 8 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Suun speaks very depreciatory about the Celestial Ministry prior to the Nahpui Quarter mission. It would be most ironic to find out that he is actually the head of it. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 04:56, 12 June 2006 (CDT)


 * I think this kind of shameless palgiarism of the names of "holy" things into ministry beaurcracy is the main reason he hates them. I think he has nothing to do with them. The head of the ministry is as much a real Oracle as the ministry of Water is in charge of making the rain fall. :) --Karlos 06:55, 12 June 2006 (CDT)


 * It's also possible that the oracle is the nominal head of the Celestial Ministry but doesn't have any more real control over it than the Emperor, which is one interpretation of the babelfish translation of the information on the Japanese website. I suspect that Suun recruited people such as Nika and the Adepts to perform the duties that the Ministry has been neglecting. -- Gordon Ecker 04:17, 8 September 2006 (CDT)
