Oh that? That's a common prayer with a common answer: "I will reveal the Madhi my own due time. Seek not to counsel thy God."

If a PC rolls really really well on a request, They still don't get to have the entirety of written tradition bow to their will. Have their God call them to find (or be) a great person who will fill the hour of need without ushering in the end of the world. This is just basic divine favor and GMing.

On a bad roll, they get REALLY chewed out for impertinence.
