Confession IV

[Phone]

[It really was a big deal for him to speak up, and it had taken a lot of determination for him to come to this conclusion. He was almost ready to give in though, but in the back of his mind he asked himself what would his sister do.]

Um....

[Even if he had the resolve his voice was still very soft and hesitant.]

S-since it's A-Ash Wednesday... I thought... I d-d-decided.... I-I can bless anyone who w-wishes at the Ch-Church today....

[He sounds like he was going to say more but then whatever words he had got stuck in his throat. He struggles for a little bit before simply putting the receiver down.]


[Action; Church]

[He is indeed at the church, all dressed up and everything. Part of him is hoping no one will show up, part of him is hoping that he can set a good example and not be an embarrassment for all members of the Church.]

[Alessandro looks up and jumps slightly at the sight of such a large man. But at the question he nods slowly.]

Y-yes! If you l-like I can b-bless you today and g-give you the sign of the cross.

I am admittedly curious about it. Where we come from, there is a similar institution of worship.

I am Go'el, Lok'tar friend.

I-I am Pope Alessandro the E-Eighteenth.... It's a p-pleasure to m-meet you.

[The first part sounds like a title.] Well met.

What is the blessing all about, may I ask?

Th-this is the f-first day of Lent, which is f-forty days of fasting and giving up something i-important like J-Jesus did in the past. Th-this day is about remembering th-those things and f-fighting against sin.

[omg_thrall]

I see. It is a noble goal.

[Action]

[shotapope]

Wh-which is why it's i-important.

Re: [Action]

[omg_thrall]

Indeed. May I sit for a while, and watch a little? I would like to see your worship in action.

[Action]

[shotapope]

O-of course. All are welcome in the house of G-God.

Re: [Action]

[omg_thrall]

Thank you. [And there he will sit in the middle of the pews, watching with a pleasant expression on his face.]

[It was not the smoothest religious ceremony as Alessandro was an incredibly awkward person. But there was much heart and pure feelings put into it.]

Re: [Action]

[omg_thrall]

[Definitely not, but Thrall enjoyed every moment of it. So these people worshiped this Jesus as the humans and dwarves worshiped the holy light, or perhaps it was more akin to the Draenei and Blood Elves who celebrated the Naaru now.]
