In the game's words
How to use it
The Priestess replaces the Healer and is unique to the Incas. It is available to the Incas starting in the Commerce Age and can be spawned by the Healers Ceremony at the Community Plaza or if The Wise Woman is chosen when advancing in age. Priestesses can commune at the Community Plaza, an action at which they are particularly effective, they can heal allied units, and they have the unique ability to convert enemy units with the exception of heroes, ships, and buildings.
History
The vast Inca Empire relied not just on economic and military prowess, but also on spiritual engagement as well. Inca religion combined a complex set of ceremonial rites, animism, and solar worship, and the priestly class that presided over this system commanded immense social and political influence as curators of the people’s spiritual welfare and their relationship with the divine. The Aqllakuna, or Chosen Women, were revered virgin priestesses who were said to interact directly with the gods. Some lived a sequestered life, preparing religious rites, brewing ceremonial beer, and tending to spiritual matters, while others played a more public role, participating in religious festivals and even occasionally serving as human sacrifices. Their families, as blood relatives of the honored Aqllakuna, were also held in high esteem throughout the Inca Empire as well as in their local communities.
