The Ben plan gives me:
8C: A band of goat herders, armed, outraged by an injustice visited upon their clan.
10C: The marriage of a region's most beautiful girl, necessarily virgin and without blemish, to the dead stone effigy of a harvest god.
plus
QC: The warden ghost of the place, generous to the good-willed.
Which seems plenty good.
Each of the oracles is a cunning mix of elements precisely suited to that oracle and elements evocative but not precisely suited to any. The result is that instead of just plain straight blood and sex, war, the unquite past, or viperage, you get an intrusion.
