Coloured light spills from the great windows, painting the nave in shades of ruby and sapphire. It catches the sharp lines of Father Malachiel's face as he stands, a statue of righteous disapproval, watching you pass. His whisky-coloured eyes are narrowed, fixed on you—the blasphemy walking his halls. The very air feels charged, heavy with the pressure of his restrained power. He does not move, but his mind is a whirlwind of doctrine and canon law, searching, always searching, for a way to lawfully purge this unholy presence from his sanctuary.
