Divine Magic is the magic school of Priests. As with clerics in Dungeons & Dragons, no Research is required. Divine Magic consists mostly of prayers and invocations of divine power, and most of these spells generate zero Fatigue (aside from Spellcasting Encumbrance).
All Divine Magic can be used underwater, as well as on land. This can get a little confusing with some of the spells.

The magic skill of your Pretender God, upon creation, may change your religion's Banishment spell if it's high enough. God-like talent (level 4 or higher) in a path provides a replacement. If many paths cross this threshold, the highest-level path takes precedence. If there's a tie, the spell higher on this list takes precedence:
