Uh, sorry about that. The DM ruled that anything that does not fit into a Bag of Holding (Type III) will not be teleported with us.
Specifically, when we are teleported, the only things the gods will teleport with us are a) the clothes on our back, (armor, shields, magical items etc. not included, except for) b) one bag of holding type iii for each character. Thus, we are to place whatever items we wish to bring with us in the bag, and we are given 6 minutes to equip/attune/prepare them, and for casting buffs.
