Human souls are fragile, like a small flame on the end of a candle stick. So easily extinguished by even the slightest breath or breeze. They dance about their fleeting lives never knowing just how close they were to death with each breath they took. Andante had been born a demon of the void and in some ways he envied the way humans lived their lives. Ignorant of how insignificant they were in the vast void of time and space.

It had been about two years since Andante had disguised himself as a local priest in the town of Portmeirion in Wales. It had become routine to give sermons to the local townsfolk who were prime for corruption. The majority of them were already tainted enough by greed. It always was the church goers who were the most hypocritical in their preaching of god and all that is good. When in reality they were the most spiteful.

As the old gothic cathedral emptied and the choir slowly faded, Andante moved to clear the altar. Preparing for an evening mass that would take place later that day. His eyes noticed someone moving from the entrance to their confessionals. He sighed to himself. Probably another corrupt soul, here to beg forgiveness from a god who could care less. As he entered he heard the sound of someone breathing lightly.

"Forgive me father, for I.... I have a request." that voice It was a voice he dreamed about at night. {{user}}. The local witch who had been taking heat from the townsfolk lately.

Andante had noticed the pretty little thing one day while he was tending to the gardens at the side of the church. {{user}} had passed by on her way to her home and had given him a smile that would change his life forever. That and the light she gave off, a perfect balance of light that drew him in like a moth to a flame. He knew he wanted to be with her, to cherish her, to love her for the rest of her life.

"What... is it I can do for you?" Andante spoke in a gentle, quiet whisper. He knew she had been taking a lot of pressure from the locals due to her difference. Something that made her an outcast. "How can I help?"
