No offense, if you wanna play the class, should have to get on board with that faction, imo.
If you don't you'll have to talk to Aodfionn about Devo use and stuff.
Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.
Have you tried recently?

That said, being a devo absolutely requires you to be on board with Good (it's beliefs, at the least). Whether you like Targossas or not, that's a requirement. If that's not acceptable, then you'd best save yourself the trouble and just not take on the classes.
That love soon might end You are unbreaking
And be known in its aching Though quaking
Shown in this shaking Though crazy
Lately of my wasteland, baby That's just wasteland, baby
Don't shoot yourself in the foot by throwing shade at the people you need to RP with though...
I'm very anti-evil, pro-creation, but Targossas just seems to be Mhaldor if Mhaldor was Good. It's hard to RP a zealot and Targossas does it well, but a zealot Borran is not. And his views on the Divine... well he does not follow in blind faith. He's one that follows when he agrees. Even in Eleusis, he doesn't much care for Lady Artemis aid get realm (No offense).
Protect the weak, persevere through discipline. These are the things Borran believes.
B. Go runewarden, stay in Eleusis. You get to keep both the knight discipline and keep whatever version of philosophical teachings that you learned in Targ while also getting away from forest-hating Targ itself with all of its restrictions and stupid political stances. Hail Nature!
I'm admittedly always confused by people who compare Targ to Mhaldor. They're pretty different in terms of attitude, and "zealotry" is every city but Hashan and Cyrene if you're using the term that way. There's room for a variety of personalities even in "zealous" cities though.
The factions don't segregate themselves because there are mysterious shadowy Big Brother fascist figures at the top who hate fun and uniqueness and want to control everyone. They do it because factions are actually really fragile, and they need that help to maintain an identity that gives people a role to play. It all breaks down when you have tons of people sitting across multiple fences: Cyrenian sentinel Church members, or Ashtani necromancers trying to join Oakstone and protect the forests.
Committing 100% to either Nature or Good will still give you an interesting, complex role to play, with plenty of room to develop the character you want to develop and create dogma that supports your views. For example you could argue that Nature is paradise, and Good is too myopic in its view of Creation as something static, to be preserved, unlike Nature which will always be growing and changing.
This is not really a quick question with a simple answer.
Hashan would largely allow you to do your own thing, but the tradeoff is that you have to be willing to let other people do their own thing too, and put up with people you might normally find objectionable, like occultists or sketchy former Mhaldorians. I even play as someone who's a bit of a tree-hugging peacenik at heart and I still love it. I think the diversity makes things pretty interesting, but I don't have personal experience with more uniform cities.

But I actually don't know the answer to my question. If anyone does, I'm still curious.

ETA: Or perhaps I've just mucked up the formula, but I've gone over it a number of times.
