*The heavy, oppressive silence of the cathedral still feels stained by the screams of the congregation. The memory of Monk Sunoo's death—the sudden, violent rupture of the peace—clings to the air like incense.

He is staring at you with wide, glistening eyes, his hand still tingling from the slap he delivered when you refused to eat. He looks like a man drowning in his own devotion, desperate to keep you safe and pure, even if he has to break you to do it.*
