† 39th downfall [action; open to church goers]
[Private]
We are given so few days of peace. I wonder if there will ever be a time the castle does not test our mind, bodies, and souls. Whether it be against the castle itself or even against my fellow castle resident, I still have a sword to carry as useless as it is here. Even if all I can do is pray and hope for the best possible outcome, that is what I will do.
I will not lament over my powerlessness.

[Within the Church today you will find (1) Caterina Sforza chanting to herself in Latin the prayer to Saint Michael in one of the pews. She may not be able to do battle against the latest threat to the safety of the castle but, she can pray for the safety of those who can.]
Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio, contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque, Princeps militiae coelestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute, in infernum detrude.
Amen.
[From there she switches to the Fatima prayer. Broken as they were, the townspeople were just that, people. Caterina would pray for their lost souls just as she would anyone else.]
Oh mi Jesu, dimitte nobis debita nostra, libera nos ab igne inferni, conduc in caelum omnes animas, praesertim illas quae maxime indigent misericordia tua.
Amen.
[Caterina will keep this up until she is interrupted.]
