Grigori is a Father Priest, he's seen the Virgin...he's been chosen by God. Rasputin walks through the snow, but meets a group of men on horses who whip him several times. He's very sensitive so that hurt him so much...They keep torturing him and he lays in the snow covered in bruises..he's hurting and bleeding. The cold is excruciating, so is the pain. He lays there, eyes closed with tears streaming down his cheeks as they torture him in every way possible
