Floor Thirteen
[ There is no one to hear his confession.

The church is empty and dark; forsaken. His footsteps echo loudly as he walks down to the altar, and his head feels heavy. The motions he makes are stiff, methodical, and long trained. Once he reaches the altar, he bows, dropping to his knees then bringing his whole body forward. His palms touch the ground, and so do his lips, without any thought of how the floor has been left dirty and uncared for.

He means to rise, but he cannot bring himself to do it. His body is stiff and resistant, weighed down by the burden of his own trespasses.

He killed her, and he enjoyed it.

There is no redemption for a sin that vile.

Floor Ninety-Six
[ Kirei had found another man here once: the traitor Iscariot.

Judas said it would make him forget, and Kirei had doubted much about it. It was said to be only temporary, and this is by no means a proper penance. This will resolve nothing...

But perhaps if he stays long enough, it all will be erased, and in that he can also erase the threat of harm that comes with his existence.

Wildcard
[ Or, if you prefer, catch him wandering somewhere else. Feel free! ]
