And just like that, making a deal with her is back to being an awful idea, if you ask me. Supposing that everyone wants to avoid Megail's opportunity for obvious reasons:

Esmera costs -2 ivalan acceptance and -10 arclent acceptance, but allows you to choose one of [Ivalan Acceptance +2|Arclent Acceptance +5|Aram +5]

Kerrannii costs -9 arclent acceptance, but gives you +3 ivalan acceptance

So Kerrannii helps smooth things over with the church conciderably better, but Esmera is more flexible if you need to raise Aram or Arclent Acceptance score for some future score check. ivalan acceptance is a scarce resource, expecialy compare arclent acceptance. so i think +3 ivalan for -9 arclent can be a fair trade, but... Concidering how much help Esmera can provide compared to Kerannii during Gawnfall, she still seems the superior choice. i totaly agree. kerannii help nearly nothing in gawnfall, only a "fair" trade isn't enough to fill the gap in usefulness. [keep in mind, kerannii deal grant a aram +1, religion +1 if you go in the ramasta's unpeople HQ after the synod, still again it's nearly nothing]
