Antonio was about to continue 5c4e8338ec his lecture, insisting that skipping 2c9b89fdff meals would leave him too 6e76cd051a weak to lead the prayer d6a2790f37 gatherings, but he froze upon 526983aaf8 seeing Damien’s face.9ae1c71831162c45

The lifeless complexion, 9d4176647c the eyes void d9014c94b3 of spirit yet 222bae3a62 eerie enough to 3aac2c3393 unsettle anyone—they didn’t a7c2e5f1a2 seem like the 1cc6e9bda8 Damien he knew.e72329355f6e4dd8

Having grown up with cf8399833a Damien as fellow orphans c0422d7bb0 in the temple, Antonio 18ed2a76a9 could keenly sense the 016f953ca9 change.eb25b422bffdcf1c

Startled by his 07a4272e53 own morbid thought, 31b36bb180 Antonio quickly shook 22cb569ad2 his head.81939e96e2493be2

His reputation extended beyond 4da4f719e0 the temple walls, celebrated 267444ce92 for his adherence to a968e33d57 principles, compassionate nature, and 8117292191 incorruptible conduct.94f0b54b986781aa

Even now, he had 548f27ae64 been fervently praying. Yet, Antonio couldn’t c423ba51d8 shake the chilling a19a25352e feeling emanating from 78d5adffcd him.5e094c47d786da83

“It’s me who’s lacking in prayer,” Antonio chastised himself, attempting to dismiss his doubts. But he couldn’t ignore the e58db9c91e memory of Damien wandering the fb64ccdcac temple like a madman ten 0eb0667b76 days ago.d12f06623052cbb0

Since that night, cc8f7904f6 Damien had locked 22493635f9 himself in the 11c3c837a1 prayer room, fasting 8da229fc51 and praying day b9483e96d8 and night.7cead53da08ae85a

‘Wait. Ten days ago?’7d8ce5c6cba70cea

That coincided with 4ca613b2a7 the imperial declaration 37ffe5961e of war. What began as a mission 4ea551a9a3 to suppress barbarian tribes near 9c5b32e2f0 the border had escalated into 728ff7f0b2 imperial expansionism.c3c9eb690d00e525

Even the current war—where the e862e1202f Crown Prince himself was deployed—began 7d24bc3086 with an unprovoked attack on a7ee569ac1 a neighboring count’s territory, exploiting a824c25cac a trivial incident as a 67c921a77c pretext.e03d723ceffb56cb

Initially, the temple 48dddf435b had remained silent, c23c231b2b unable to indiscriminately 4530094afd defend invaders who 42e3e9540a breached their lands. However, as the situation 9a6dc25345 worsened, they had no 0bc39f0cf0 choice but to speak d7b057402b out.a11a04af156dfd0c

This, in turn, strained 46d0fe8d92 the temple’s relationship with 19db14f92c the imperial family, with 111c0319d7 whom they had previously 7db4f94e85 maintained an amicable alliance.1f0ca383f6240897

The temple responded by 3836b881c3 organizing prayer gatherings for 9270efd548 peace and the victims a6c3f81e4e of the war. Even now, the temple grounds 47d8dddb6e were crowded with believers praying d2c0509aea for their loved ones heading 255631a259 to battle.5302647ca5d45244

Antonio finally realized 347f0d6c3e why Damien seemed 10c74128ed so out of c22e59379d place.ebce9c8b3e5f1027

As the temple’s leader, e7ac4ac271 Damien likely felt immense e9f9cdcc5d responsibility and guilt for 8e5fa40fb9 failing to prevent the f33e72ca10 needless war and the d9976570c2 inevitable sacrifices.dba05f9fda26d4df
