Porphyry: "You have lost some of your company? I am a psychopomp for my people, that is, my job is to provide succor and guidance for the recently dead. I tend to their bodies and their spirits. Perhaps I could administer some rights to your companions, and make sure their spirits are on their proper path."

I would expect a lot of blowback from a party that you refuse to help...despite them going to a lot of trouble to restore you to life.

Boddin, blood still dripping from his wounds, looks to Albertus. "Sir, will you help me please?"
The hobbit looks again at the cleric's face, and sees something unfamiliar, and a little dark. The pain evident on the hobbit's face mixes with confusion. "Are you...are you choosing not to help me?" he asks. "Why? Because I urged compassion instead of slaughter? Is that the way of St. Cuthbert? If so—" the injured hobbit's voice trails off.
"I do not want to be uncouth by bringing it up, but it seems I must: I helped save—or perhaps I should say 'restore'—your life, sir, at great cost in gold and, perhaps, to my soul. I agreed—not entirely voluntarily, I should add—to convert to St. Cuthbert's faith! I did not mind—not too much, anyway—that you did not thank us for bringing you back to this world, something that has been done for you alone among our many fallen companions. Returning from the dead can be no easy thing, and I must admit that this life may not be preferable to the rest that lies beyond, and thus it may be that duty alone brought you back. It must be hard to be grateful for such a thing indeed! And yet, a good man would recognize and acknowledge the great sacrifice by those who brought him back to complete the tasks his god set before him."
"I do not know if this is the way of St. Cuthbert. I must talk with Father Jerome when, and if, I am able to return to the keep." Little Boddin does his best to stand up straight and look much taller man straight in the eyes. "But I know what I believe: if you refuse to lend aid to another in need merely because of philosophical differences, especially when you owe that person your life, then you, sir, are not a good man."
His loquaciousness more exhausting than usual, Boddin collapses on the ground, taking whatever rest he can get before the party moves on.

realizing she is out of heals for the day after touching Boddin, she still prays for comfort among the hurt in our group.

Eryndir watches quietly as various of the those around him find themselves suddenly at odds with each other, his face remaining a calm mask.
"Perhaps we should think about resting up," he suggests, "It might afford the wounded halfling some respite and perhaps allow the healer a chance to commune with her god."
