[sanctus_cineris]

[ ✟ ] O people of Zion, who dwell in Jerusalem, no more will you weep; He will be gracious to you when you cry out, as soon as he hears he will answer you. The Lord will give you the bread you need and the water for which you thirst. [ ✟ ]

No longer will your Teacher hide himself, but with your own eyes you shall see him

[ Before Maxwell could deter him further the Priest was already flying out the doors and barreling into the night streets, cutting through the graveyard to make his way to the apartment building swifter than if he'd gone by the regular route. The Marshall apartments shouldn't have been far...

However, the ear-splitting screeches in the distance were still cause for alarm. He was slower than he would've been given the path was treacherous, though his instincts told him that being stealthy would serve him better.]

[He just huddled himself against the far wall, away from the windows, his hands on his head as if this was some sort of earthquake drill.]

[ Having narrowly avoided several of the smaller spawn he kept to the back roads, climbing up the side of the apartments rather than go straight to the entrance. Maneuvering hand over foot the Priest managed to end up exactly on the level His Holiness' room was, shifting over to knock on the window.]

[Alessandro looked up at the sound of his name, and when seeing Anderson he brightened immensely and rushed over.]

[He somehow managed to squeeze through the opening without too much of a struggle, long legs bracing against the wall after he pushed the glass open and slipped inside.]

Yer Holiness...Ye're unharmed.

[He sounded relieved, and quickly took his small hand in his larger, kissing where the Papal ring would've been worn should he have been so adorned.]

I... I n-never imagined this p-place would become l-l-like this.

[His gaze softened and he placed a hand carefully on the top of the young Vicar of Christ's head, wishing for all of Rome that he could give him more reassurance.]

Ah'll git ye oot o' thaes, dinna ye fash...Noothin' will befall ye. Ah won't allow et.
