My own visualization of this would have it automated, maybe comnnected to what's in the basement, but maybe not. We don't really know if such a defensive system exists, but it seems a reasonable assumption given the paranoia that must have followed Kauyung's vest pocket nuke.

That is what Merlin would be risking to enter the Temple.

For that matter, it's possible the things can detect PICA's, disable them, re-write the personality - like write Chihiro's recorded one over it, and send it back out. It's a long shot, but it's just one point on the spectrum of potential Bad Things that errand could entail.

I imagine the Mary-Sue complaints would stop in a hurry then.

It takes a miracle to forgive when you are misused.

A young Christian girl in a refugee camp because of ISIS was interviewed for television and stated she had forgiven the ISIS people. This was so unexpected by people in that area and cultural background that Maryam's interview went viral.

She added that God loves everyone - except Satan and his followers. We do get to choose our side, even though we are not perfect followers, and the fictional Safehold people also get to choose their side.
