The PoD will lose some of the afflictions when he is called back. Maybe about 50%. But with just 2 H4 priests it will take 50/8 = 7 turns to call him back.
Your god is about 3 temple checks per turn, right? But if each H4 priest is sacrificing 4 virgins per turn, that's 8 temple checks. I don't think you should use those guys to call him back right now.
And sorry to say this, but from the point of view of a non-involved observer, that's a really funny story of your PoD's death by afflictions.
