Church of Ilmater RP

[PiaMango]

Over the past few tenday a radiantly clad healer has offered her help to the temple sporadically. She seems fairly adept in the art of healing, always humming a joyous tune if not singing in celestial as she tends to her patient.
After a few days absence she returns to the today temple offering her help. Her eyes are tired, her mood far less amiable than usual. She does not sing as she works, one might get the feeling she is doing such as a chore rather than genuinely wanting to help out today.

Last night, Hinzel would travel back to the Temple of Illmater, speaking softly asking to stay there again for some time, not choosing to elaborate, being rather withdrawn.

[kleomenes]

As soon as Ameris heard of Hinzel's request, he would speak strongly in favour of granting it, asking that Hinzel be offered welcome and comfort by the other Brothers and Sisters.

His attendance at the temple would be swift, however.

*In the temple of Ilmater, a bouquet of jasmine flowers was found early in the morning on the altar of the chapel*

For a second night, there has been no sign of Ameris in the temple. His room upstairs has remained unslept in and unvisited.

*A young woman, wrapped in a black cloak was seen entering the temple early in the morning. She went to the Chapel and remained there in whispered prayers a long time.*

*During the night, a velin was left on the altar of the Chapel*

A Cat's prayer for a Lion

You once helped me to see the light.
I pray for your return my friend.
How can I walk, lost in the night?
I pray that this is not the end.

I pray to my Dancing Lady,
May Her steps lead you to the Gate.
I pray to your Lord of Mercy,
May He help you endure thy wait.

I pray to the Great and Just Tyr,
To not let you become martyr.
I pray to the One who Endures,
That he'll find to your pains a cure.

I pray to the Lord of the Dawn,
That no final line has been drawn.
May your Broken God hear my plea,
Let him carry my voice to thee:

This place is void in your absence.
My heart bleeds and lost its balance.
The world around makes no more sense,
You belong with us in essence!

Return my dear, when we'll call you!
Return my dear, these lands need you!
Return my dear, your friends miss you!
Return my dear, I cry for you...

*Some prayers were whispered by the altar during the night and a smell of incense lingers in the Chapel at dawn*

[/tr][tr][td]

[/td][td]May the perfume I burn bring my prayers to you...
May it's light scent tell you : "Recall the moments past,
Remember the shared thoughts, the smiles, the tears, the hopes"

May the perfume I burn bring my whispers to you...
May it's light scent tell you : "Apart we can't be cast",
That some friendships transcend our mortal envelopes.[/td][/tr]

*Another velin is left on the chapel's altar, stained with a few drops of blood in offering*

[/tr][tr][td]

I have seen you.
Was it your voice ?
I have heard you.
Why haste your choice ?

I hope for you,
Keep your will strong !
I bleed for you,
And pray along.

I hope your vigil sees our fight,
I work with many toward light.
Be Cat, Lion. Patience is gold.
The whole story is yet untold.

I have seen the Triad in you.
I know that your heart will stay true.
Ô Ilmater ! Ô Tyr ! Ô Torm !
Give him your guidance through this storm !

A radiant clad healer returns to the temple after a long absence, her face gloomy. She spends a moments silence in the chapel, sitting upon its middle bench, holding a piece of paper in her hands. She leaves the paper upon the altar for those who visit to see.

Should any visit and read what is written upon the paper they should find.

Hidden: show

"Even a mote of ember dancing on the wind, can ignite the world fiery passion anew, if only you nurture it in your heart."

"A proud lion can lose its mane, the symbol of its pride.
Yet it stands tall still, unwavering in its stride.
Symbols matter not to him, he holds his head up high.
His ancestors help him stand, reaching down from the sky."

"Like a leaf bobbing in a stream,
you are forever dancing in my dreams.
As of late the stream rise and swell,
from my praying tears that you be well."

"Through the birds I hear your voice,
their song grants a moments peace.
I see clearer now why you made your choice,
and know my love for you will never cease."

She leaves the chapel, speaking to Sister Adolina in private.

Another day. I come again.
May my prayers assuage your pain.

Another day. I save my tears.
And I keep in silence my fears.
I won't waver until the end.
I will endure for you, my friend.

Another day. I pray. I write.
I hope the saying's true and right.
May Oghma fill my quill with might!
So it beats the swords in this fight.

Another day, the dawn draws near,
And with it hope is rising, dear![/td][/tr]

My quill bleeds every night with prayers on parchment.
Do not leave your absence as empty testament.
Do not let the darkness press it upon your will,
To agree too early to sign a codicil !

I see you in my dreams, pacing in impatience.
The gods know I make work all my skills and science.

I'm not the only heart that misses beats for you.
For another at least, there's no "us" without you.
I keep prayers for her, I know you would want to.
Remain patient for her. You know that you have to.
