Prayer with Mirkas

"Sweet and Merciful Lady.. Hear this man for his heart is true.. I beseech you, lift your gaze from your sorrows and feel the love we bear you as a balm upon your sadness, hearken unto the hope that yet lives within this world.. In your wisdom see us as we are and know the truth of our hearts and our plight.. If we are worthy perhaps of the smallest portion of your grace, bless us this day that we may work wonders in your name.."

Prayer in Abbagon

"Glorious Lady.. If by my life or my hand I may honor you I shall, if you find me unworthy I shall still seek to do good in whatever way I can.. Even if I am to fall as Mirkas has, I shall yet speak your praise.. Mother, Father.. I know you cannot hear me, but I have been so proud to be your child.. If only you could know all that I have done, learned what I have come to know. We are never ready for the true challenges we must face.. today is such a day.. I'm sorry Gregor, that I have not returned to you.. Lady of Virtue.. if I am unworthy, I pray that the other child of the heavens rises to greater glory, he shall fill the place I could not hold, and I shall wither in misery that my frail flesh could not uphold that which my mind and heart know without a shade of doubt as true. I love you, forgive me my weakness.."

Prayer for Boris and Grigori

"Great Atheleyah, I ask that these souls be accepted into the great hearafter without prejudice, let their souls know peace, that they might never again feel the pain which brought them to your embrace.."

Prayer of Uncertainty

"Sweet Lady, I do not know how this day will end, but if I am no longer able to pursue your will in this world I ask that you forgive me. Watch over Haun'nar and guide him, he is young in the world."

Prayer of Questions

"Sweet sweet Lady.. *sigh* I am but your humble servant, I do what I can to ease the suffering of those whose lives are not what they wish in this world. I have such faith, but I do not understand how one who has been blessed with power by your glory could doubt you or those who hold the heavens with you. Is she a test? Of my faith? Of my patience? I pray that it is not so for I do not know how to convince one who has fallen from their faith back into it. And she sees me as a child and a fool, even if I had the words to show her what I know, she would not hear them. I hope that I have not failed you or dissappointed you in anything I have done. Kolya is a place I could never have imagined, and I am not certain it has been improved by my visit here. There is such wrongness in the world that cannot be overcome by one alone. I have gathered a few fragile companions, but none are as strong, either in spirit or in faith as I could wish. Even those who I would have thought to find faith in do not hold it. I pray only that you continue to favor me with your guidance and your blessing, and I shall continue to do my best to serve your will and combat the evil which endeavors to overtake the world and the hearts of men. Please, help me to find that which poisons the hearts and bring it to the end, I ache for all those who have been tainted by it. I thank you again for your mercy and kindness. And for listening to a simple woman's prayer.."

Prayer for Guidance

"Sweet Lady, I am but a humble servant, gifts aplenty I have recieved from you and yet I am baffled by much that I have learned.. Why is it that men must always muddle that which should be simple and direct? I have spoken with four of your servants today, two were once as I am to be, the purest and most devout instruments of your will, and yet neither remain so.. One has lost the gift you bestowed on him by your hand, the other has lost the gift of freedom at the hands of those who should have been his brothers.. If Judias yet bears the mark of your trust why can he not not prove that it is so to others? Is there a darkness in him I should fear? But if that were so, why have you not stripped him of your gift as you did with Laurant? I know I should not question, but I cannot help it, there is so much I wish to do, so many ways I wish to help, but I cannot see my way clear in this.. I know there is not always a clear path, but please, I wish to tread the steps you have laid before me, help me to see the steps that I should take to ever walk in your grace.. And help Gregor to confide in me the secret he yet holds.. And help me to become one whom Rhonwen can trust that I might learn the way to pursue my greatest foe and defeat him.. Help Laurant to find peace within and see right what he should do to mend what he has broken, and if it is your will that Judias be free, help Father Bradford to see that and help me to find a way to make it so.. Bless my steps and steady my hand that it be sure in working your will. May your glory shine forever upon those who need it most.. Bless you.."

Prayer against Jack

"Sweet Lady.. Mithias, Atheleyah, Nadezdha.. any who will hear me, if ever there was a night to smile upon me and mine, tonight is the one I would choose.. we stand against a halfbreed who surely knows we come.. Bless you all, we seek to do your will, if you favor our actions please aid us as you can.."

Prayer of Preparation

"Sweet Lady, guide us, may we be swift and cunning in our pursuit of your will, Mithias give us strength that we may strike true against those who stand in our way, let us not falter in the face of what may be revealed.. Nadezdha, shine your mercy upon us that we might stay our hands when our path is troubled by those who know not what they do. May these souls know your glory and your compassion, see that they do not face reprisal for what we do this night.. Bless you all, Bless them.." She lowers her head and blinks her golden eyes around the room once more, gripping the hands on either side of her before crossing to the door. "There is but one path now.. Come."
