Jaeger nods as he watches Caduceus go about his preparations.

"It's that way in my world, as well. Though, magic takes its toll directly on the user." He pauses, then adds quietly, "I don't know about patrons, here. The spirits I'm used to interacting with seem to have been replaced by something more...wild, more destructive. A small experiment nearly turned out very, very badly for me."

He considers that all for a few moments, then adds, "I'm a mage, myself. Though that covers a lot of different sorts of power. More aligned with natural forces than the divine." Jaeger isn't even sure he believes in a higher power, not really, so he's probably qualified to comment, but he's not going to knock someone else's belief system, either.

People find all sorts of things that appeal to them personally, and some of those things only speak to them. That, Jaeger does have experience with.

"It might be worth seeing if there's a good natural goods store in town. Given how much it caters to tourists, I'd think there would be at least one good tea shop here."
