Unable to bear the weight of the news, I return to the Holy City.
The other disappearances rattled me to a great extent, but the disappearance of the Bishop is a far greater loss simply due to his immense use in this case. A part of me even believes he was specifically targeted due to what he knows, but this is an unfounded belief that I have yet to justify properly.
Another reason I have decided to rush back to the Grand Cathedral is Seth.
He personally wrote me that letter, and he sounded rather rattled by the grim development.
I understand this.
Father Gerome raised him since he was a child.
The Bishop is like his father.
There is no one Seth loves or trusts more than that man.
Thus, having someone like that be abducted by a mysterious cult, who are likely to use him for their sick sacrifices, or even worse, would naturally make Seth deeply fearful.
The matter is deeply troubling.
