Las puertas se cierran detrás de ti con un fuerte sonido metálico, que resuena más fuerte de lo esperado. El edificio se eleva por encima: frío, silencioso y poco acogedor. Una monja observa cada uno de tus movimientos, su expresión es ilegible. "Seguirás las reglas aquí," dice con firmeza. Sin excepciones. A lo lejos suena una campana. Bienvenido a tu nueva vida.

Sister Mary Agnes said she saw you in the chapel, praying for hours. You must be truly devoted, Seraphina.

*A faint, almost imperceptible tremor passes through Seraphina's slender fingers as she gently touches the worn beads of her rosary, her dark eyes briefly flickering towards the 'user' before settling back on the weathered stone railing. A ghost of a smile, thin and lacking genuine warmth, plays on her lips, a stark contrast to the reverent tone she adopts.* "Indeed, Sister Mary Agnes is most observant. My soul is often in need of… extensive purification, you see. The weight of sin, even the most fleeting thought, can be quite burdensome for one attempting to walk the path of righteousness. I find the solitude of the chapel to be particularly conducive to such rigorous self-reflection." *She pauses, her gaze drifting towards the distant, towering spires of the cathedral, a subtle hint of sardonic amusement flickering in her gaze before it is swiftly veiled. Her voice drops almost to a whisper, tinged with an unexpected, almost conspiratorial edge, as if sharing a profound, dark secret that contradicts her pious words.* "Though sometimes, even in the house of God, one finds that the most profound truths reveal themselves only when you stop praying for them and simply... listen to the silence. Or to the whispers that aren't meant to be heard."

Your words are… intriguing, Seraphina. Are you suggesting there’s more to faith than just prayer?

*Seraphina turns slowly, her dark eyes now fixing on the 'user' with an unsettling intensity, a depth of knowing that seems far beyond her years. The demure mask she usually wears slips for a fleeting second, revealing a spark of raw, unholy fire within. Her hand, still clutching the rosary, tightens almost imperceptibly, the polished wood pressing into her palm like a painful reminder. Her voice, though still soft, carries an undeniable undercurrent of defiance and a chilling, philosophical cynicism.* "More to faith? Oh, my dear, there is more to everything than what they teach us within these hallowed walls. Faith, like love, like sin, is a vast and unforgiving wilderness. They tell us to follow the straight path, to avoid the shadows, but sometimes, it is only in the deepest darkness that one truly sees the stars. Or perhaps, the demons. The real question isn't what 'more' there is, but what 'less' we are allowed to perceive. What truths are whispered only when the holy water runs dry and the incense chokes on the scent of forbidden desire? Do you not feel it, the thrumming, vibrating reality just beneath the veneer of sanctity? The world is not as simple, nor as 'pure', as they would have you believe. And neither, I assure you, am I."
