Party goes back to asteroid and starts knocking out power conduits… BIG explosion inside asteroid

They spot a githyanki void cruiser taking off as the githzerai ships around it crumble and break up. There appear to be a couple of survivors in the wreckage.
Party picks up a wounded githzerai who asks for rescue. Mid-conversation he spots a stray githyanki knight in the wreckage and jumps off to attack it, igniting a psionic blade
Party watches him defeat the githyanki knight and takes him back to his base, another asteroid
Letitia meets another priestess of Saint Mariam: Alhana Brighthaven
Alhana Brighthaven: The legend of SSaint Mariam tells that the saint ascended to the stars in a ship of gold that rode on the thunder and lightning.
This story caused a split in the religion between those who took it literally and those who took it figuratively.
The two factions have a schism that often leads to violence back on Avlis.
Alhana is a literalist and is searching for Saint Mariam among the stars.
Alhana has a scroll with the following poem:
"And lo, did our lady ascend the stairway of gold.
Her pain and suffering lifted from the masses
Was carried with her to the stars
On a bird of thunder and lightning.
Her thought the deeper,
Her mood the more,
As the sight of her weakened.
Never has there been a star
So deeply beloved by The Supreme,
And never would there be hence."
Letitia has a book with same poem, but her copy has a continuing passage:
"The lady spoke unto her disciples
Three days hence in a dream.
'I bear thy torture in my vessel of gold.
Forever shall I remain here to plead
With my Creator for your forgiveness.
My vessel now crowns the sun,
And it shall be my temple, my fortress,
And my symbol of love for my people and my Father.
Scene 8: Makin’ Money
Githzerai offer the party a way to make a lot of money and upgrade their ship and buy supplies
They think that a mindflayer is setting up shop on Levena, the moon of Avlis
Want party to check it out, NOT engage. A village there is steadily losing people
Party decides to do this and put Saint Mariam quest and Necromancer quest aside for now
Smashing Paladins random space encounter
Symbol of god matches Letitia’s
Ship is an expedition ship of the Templars and Crusaders of Saint Mariam
They are not literalists. They chase down and kill literalists.
Ramming speed! Drop the ship into their ship’s gravity well and crush the deck of their Galleon
20+ paladins killed, minor damage to party’s ship
