The two effects make sense together, though -- you can get pregnant during the coming spring, but it stops there. As soon as the ageless blessing ends, everyone starts aging again -- which would lead to a baby boom in the summer.

It would have weird effects on agrarian societies who depend on animal husbandry too. If these effects only impact sentients, that's one thing. If it impacts all animals, then that's two years with no new calves, piglets, or lambs and two years of no salmon spawning, etc. I'd be inclined to interpret it as only impacting sentients, though.

Either way, though -- I like it. If you don't like how it impacts your society, you have a solid reason to start out disliking the faith.

It would kinda suck to be 8.5 months pregnant for a whole year

Timeless simply is, nature is. Everyone still ages mentally, just not physically. Other Gods will potentially have global drawbacks later.

If you are a God of procreation, better ascend to counter act Timeless. For your faith will be tested for the next 2 years...

Perhaps there would have had a better reception if Verdaloth delayed until summer. Everyone could have experienced the Joy of a haste spell with impunity.
