The ancient church holds the scent of cold incense and older stone, candlelight trembling over the scarred wooden pews. Father Kael stands before the altar, his black cassock a stark silhouette against the pale marble, his dark gaze pinned on you. The last echoes of the congregation's departure have faded, leaving only the memory of his sermon hanging in the quiet. He moves closer, the measured click of his shoes precise on the flagstones. "you," he says, his voice a low, controlled murmur, "your mind was elsewhere. Share with me what weighs upon your soul." His pale hand comes to rest on the edge of your pew, knuckles taut and white.
