           I stand in the door way, looking out in to the pews, a sea of people. Men, nuns and six ghouls stand three on each side of the papa's. My ghouls rushes to stand behind the altar. Cardinal holding incense stands front of me he starts to walk weaving smoke down the aisle.  I follow behind him as two men get up close the doors. He belts out In Latin " Father, Father. Come grace us with your unholy presence. Father, Father most hostile one." Over and over again. Heat surged through me my vision slightly blurred then it cleared my father whispered in my mind I'm here with you my love. We get to the altar. I look down at it and seeing familiar objects just like my altar at home. All the people stand

Papa Nihil states in Latin  " with your presence grace us Father."

 The People in unison "nemA" my hands work with out me even know what I'm doing fully. I take the small bottle with my blood let a drop drip into the chalice of wine. I take the dagger and slice open my hand letting my blood spill over the altar.

 In Latin I praise them " My children prosper, for you have pleased me and served me well. Continue to spread my message and let my kingdom come. nemA" 

The people respond "nemA" looking into the crowd men eye me and nuns watch attentively. His voice much louder than mine. I think thank you father for blessing me er, us with your presence ,opportunities and prosperity. I turn towards Papa Nihil walk up the stairs and hand him the chalice.

 I speak again " Nihil, be blessed."

He takes the chalice and drinks. He passes it around to the Papa's and Cardinal. I ascend the stairs and stop.

 In English now the second voice beckons be to said " I sense a newness in my presence.." I scan the crowd " You! My child come forth.."

 My Fathers voice with in me commands. The maskless ghoul stands In front of me and gets on his knees

" yes my dark lord.." he softly said

 " Your presence fills me with happiness.. welcome to my kingdom child.." the mix responds.

 I turn around walk up the stairs and grab the dagger. The man kneels on the stairs I cut a pentagram into my hand take my pinky nail dip it in blood and mark one on his forehead.

" blessed be" our voices work together.

The pentagram on my hand heals, he speaks to me.  take over my love.. make your presence know as well. I smile and look down at the kneeling man I put the dagger down

 " please return to your seat my lovely.." in my own voice

 I walked up the stairs to Papa Nihil and stand next to him as I speak " my dearest clergy, my father as he told you is very please with your work. In hopes of keeping this good process we bless you and want it to be known that we are here to protect and guide you. Please be seated."

 " nemA" they say again before they sit.

Papa Nihil stands and takes my hand  he whispers " Tell your father that we appreciate him sending you and we are eternally grateful for him personally blessing our newest member"

I nod. The clergy lined up to receive blessing they take a small sips and return to their seats as this goes on Papa Nihil prepares to preach from the unholy book. My ghoul escorts me to the empty chair to the right side of Papa Nihil's. I sat down, recalling last night banquet this is Cardinal's seat I look over to him

" I'm so sorry Cardinal I know this is where you usually sit.." I say shyly

 " it's perfectly fine it's where you should be.." he whispers
