Rites

Among Jasmine Blossoms...

Iman sends a formal invitation to meet - this time openly. The more transparent you appear, the more ashamed people become: how could anyone mistake the purest, holiest, most devout communion between believer and priest for impurity?

Regular

Revisiting this square chamber, you distinctly smell flower fragrance, subtly different from before. After considerable thought, you realize - no blood scent requires masking.

Opening the door, Iman absently tends jasmine near the window, nearly cutting the finest blossoms. Seated across the stone table, he examines you, confirming your recovery before gradually speaking.

"I've decided to temporarily relinquish High Priest responsibilities." He meets your eyes, "Command me freely, if my inability to bestow pure words doesn't concern you."

His matter-of-fact, calm admission surprises you greatly - considering many Order priests, unable to accept divine abandonment, repeatedly attempted contact until fatally self-flagellated.

When you question why, Iman merely shakes his head silently, offering jasmine-petal tea. Perhaps someday, but not now. Perhaps eventually he'll reveal the truth: that no pain could surpass those few evenings.

Revisiting this square chamber, you distinctly smell flower fragrance, subtly different from before. After considerable thought, you realize - no blood scent requires masking.

Opening the door, Iman tends jasmine near the window, appearing more vigorous than pre-trial.

"I've decided to temporarily relinquish High Priest responsibilities." He mentions casually, pouring jasmine-petal tea, continuing before your "why" emerges, "Command me freely. This isn't repayment for your previous 'assistance,' but because..." He hesitates, glances toward you, then smiles slightly while shaking his head. "Nothing important."

Perhaps someday, but not now. Perhaps eventually he'll reveal the truth: countless times he scourged himself seeking divine whispers through pain. Just once, at pain's extreme, at death's threshold, he heard your voice instead.
