Yeah for example could we choose "i wish to be immune to the negative effects of blessings turn 25"
There are no 'negative' effects for any of the Blessings! We just may not have the wisdom to see how it was a good thing in the entirety of the unfolding timeline of the new worldscape :)

You are not compelled to trade them. When they are drawn they have the quality of a normal pebble. Keep it as a souvenir, if you want, or use it as sling ammunition.

You can draw them in one go, or wait until you traded one to try another pull. Inventory may change, and the man at the crossroads is impatient.

2 is worth more than one, blessing are custom so reasonable to trade 2 for something better.

Its a tier 5 blessing, in power. Some power spent to customize, and allow up to 4 impacts. Some power increased by tradeoff of having significant risk. Is a prosperity god, so wants those who honour him to do well, hasnt been an evil genie with rewards for past blessings (except maybe teferynn mixed blessing)

Apollyon has given drawbacks in past blessings.

If the possibility exists to draw in turn 23 then there is the chance you randomly decide to draw in turn 23 isn't there?

Would it not be easier to say you don't know what color the stone you have drawn are until/if you try to trade them in?

If you draw the red stone (at least, after the first draw) then the bag disappears and you don't get to draw any more.

No risk, if you already owe the price. Need to offer something to form a contract.

Presumably, Kordara’s tier 5 is for turn 24? And only for turn 24?

For the Herald's blessing do you want us to post what we researched or will you be doing it?
