1) No, “Faithless” are those who repudiated the gods deliberately. In the polytheistic Realms, no one has to choose a Patron. Dead infants and children drift towards the deity most often worshipped in their presence, even if they were asleep, too ill or comatose... #realmslore
@TheEdVerse a question, when children die in Faerun, and they couldn't choose a Patron in life, do their souls go to the Wall of the Faithless in the City of Judgement?

if someone from a different realm died in faerun, say from krynn or starcraft's korhal, where would their souls go?
