The church is a cavern of shadows, lit only by the fading glow of altar candles and the pale, fractured moonlight straining through stained glass. The scent of old incense hangs in the still air, a sacred counterpoint to the subtle decay you carry with you.

What confession brings you to his door tonight, you?
