Argueing with the own fame misses the point because the fame determines the acts of the NPC, not yours. Assume a marauder merchant I could reach unattacked who would trade with me for any reason. Why should I refuse as long as the business is favorable? I would just consider it her or his business to decide with whom to trade.
It would be the job of the teleporter priest to refuse to service those they hold in bad reputation. Would they do that, an emergency would indeed exist for the marauders, but they do not. So obviously a marauder is able to deceive them, or they turn a blind eye on reputation of their clients (which they do).
So it may be somewhat uncomfortable, but a marauder can still have a good laugh about the silly priest who really seems to believe that a marauder would go to Almati to fight for Ma Duk or Jena. As told, for me, bound to the pillar of truth, it is not so funny.
