Big Reveal Part 1 - Stacy (The REAL Stacy)

[ooc: If you're the first person posting for an area of the Vatican, designate what area. "Outside, Sacristy, etc." and anyone else in that area, tag under them.]

At last himself, Daimon leaned against the outer wall of the Basilica.

I managed to fight back in small ways, but if I had done more, sooner, perhaps things would have been different.||
