Clerics have access to a plethora of rituals they can perform to gain devotion by pleasing -- or appeasing -- the gods. This is the standard message for a successfully completed ritual, regardless of any devotion gain:

You sense that you are as pure of spirit as you can be, and you are ready for whatever rituals might face you.

Non-Aligned Rituals

The vast majority of the rituals in game fall under this category. They aren't all necessarily 'neutral' rituals, but they display the devotion gain message of neutral rituals:

You feel that your gods have smiled upon you for your attempts to please them.
