You find yourself sorely missing your friend and confidante, Father Towbray. He would you help dispel this vague shaken confidence and doubt to the virtues of your adopted cause with ease, as he had time and time again over the course of your pilgrimage. Righteousness. That is something you must cling to all the more surely this far from home.
You pause in your walk among the shore. Your confessor may have departed on his own holy mission, but there is always someone that will listen to the faithful in need. Carefully removing your sandals and setting them aside, you kneel where the grey water breaks upon the sand and begin to pray.
You begin by reciting again your usual evening prayer, a comforting start to the personal holy communion, beseeching heaven for the wellbeing and good fortune of your fellow Andrei kinsmen.
<span class="mu-i">“May our family always be a place of generosity, understanding, forgiveness and joy.
Kindly give us the wisdom and courage to be witnesses to your eternal design for our lands;
and grant that Salve Reginae’s own love for Adam and Cain may always guide our path to holiness as a family.”</span>
You include Saint Ignatius’ prayer for the family of Rousseau and Daubeny, as you have ever since bringing them the news of Sir Gabriel Rousseau’s demise.
<span class="mu-i">“O Salve Reginae,
when all is darkness
and they feel our weakness and helplessness,
give Rousseau the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help Daubeny to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry them,
for, living close to You,
they shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.”</span>
You whisper a final verse, a new addition and uttered with fervent devotion. You beseech the Angel and Heaven for this one thing more…
=============================================
>You pray for the strength required to surrender fully to the Angel’s will, to shake off the sin of doubt and ever affirm the righteousness of your path, to grant you the fortitude to carry on the cause against any odds. [Divine]
>You pray for the triumph of Father Towbray and his brethren’s cause, that their words might fall upon receptive ears amongst both the masses and the clergy, the Salve Reginae might soften the hearts of those that could view them as radicals. [Hearty]
>You pray in affirmation for the safety of your family, that the Almighty cast a shield over your House so that no illness or injury befall any of them. That their lives and happiness are first and foremost in your heart, even if the path you must tread is not a happy one. [Idealist]
