I've been thinking about how there might be a connection in that Sabien decided to sabotage the ship so close to the Diver's Grave. Could the underwater temple-thing be associated with Uk'otoa?

It might just be a total coincidence/convenience for Matt as a DM to have the two locations near each other, but until it became clear that the blood ritual was used for summoning storms and not anything with the eye, I was almost positive that Sabien was trying to sacrifice Fjord's ship somehow. But there's nothing so far to suggest that Sabien has anything to do with Uk'otoa, right?

My theory is that Sabien intentionally tried to sink the ship over the diver's grave to deter anyone from investigating or thinking too much on it. No one's really going to question if a ship sinks in a place where ships are known to sink. The only question is why he decided to sink the ship in the first place. I don't think he's a follower of Uk'otoa or he would have taken Vandren's sphere. So maybe he's a follower of one of the other two gods and was trying to gain their favor by taking out Uk'otoa's chosen? Or it's all a red herring and Sabien was up to something else entirely.

Oh! That makes a lot of sense. Good point!
