I'm curious about the details of how the religion of the Church of Blargh works. The presence of an Inquisition branch of the Church makes it sound like this religion has been established for some time and had a sudden burst of prominence, rather than suddenly being established and pushed onto the people. Otherwise, I'd find it hard to believe that people would be willing to hunt for heretics of a fledgling religion.
Is the foundation of the institution the denial of magic or is the denial of magic just an aspect of the religion that is being emphasized for the sake of the story? Is there a holy text? Are there deities? Are there any traditional practices that followers of the Church are expected to do? Ie. attend mass some day of the week or perform a pilgrimage to some holy site.
I'm not expecting great detail: perhaps the extent of what a missionary would inform the public to convince people to join the Church. It seems appropriate to at least know the fundamentals of what this religion is all about before the plot thickens more than it already is.
