[Liz peers over after watching the ceremony with a curious expression]

"Yes? You may, however, I do not quite understand the ceremony... I was just curious seeing how the Gods of the west were given homage..."

[smallestgrave]

Oh.... I see.

I was just wondering if the priest is one of those... drone people.

"Hrm... His soul does not sing in the same way yours does. I do know that this church while always Christian is not always the same kind of Christian as well...."

How strange....

Do you mean it changes frequently? Is the priest always the same?

[elevatoravatar]

"I believe the man is the same, but not always the message.... I do not come here often... As I find it unwise to pay too much homage to one particular spirit."

"I do not know... I have only been here a month or so... Just long enough to have myself returned to me."

[smallestgrave]

Returned.... yourself? Do you mean you were droned or something like that?

[elevatoravatar]

I've heard that the town will sometimes restore possessions and abilities. A pity we can't speed up the process...

[elevatoravatar]

"I am told that it is quite often after an ordeal of great peril. Though, sometimes it is not. I have yet to be here long enough to know."
