It's nice to speak with you again as well, Doumeki. Thank you for volunteering to help. From how you spoke of your temple, I think you'll be a good match.
My temple is Buddhist, and provides services and funeral rites.
[a pause]
My grandfather was the high priest, and I expect to take it over if this doesn't interfere. I'm familiar with speaking the sutras and helping parishoners.
I believe his name was Castiel? He's an older gentleman.
[ Except he doesn't look it, but never mind that. ]
I can't say I relate to Christianity much, unsurprisingly. [ laugh ] But it seems to move those in other lands just fine. I think it would be helpful to have a few Christians in our group, considering that this place seems very influenced by its traditions.
I'll help out.

By the way, ah, hm. What sort of temple was it?

Buddhism is best for funerals, yes. Do you know if there's anyone else with different religious beliefs? Of the newcomers, anyhow.

Well. As I understand it, his God is rather exclusive. [ chuckle ]

The Christian Gods tend to be.

I don't relate much with it either, but I can agree that it would be good to have Christian traditions around. This place is in the West, after all.

I wonder if the prospect of a following would sway that Castiel to help.

...I'd prefer to make this less about having a 'following' and more about serving the community, though.
