Sister imperator on the left, Papa Nihil on the right.
And 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐚 in the middle, you bow towards them as a greeting, hiding the urge to shiver at the cold air hitting against your soaked body.
Or was it under the cardinal's stare that filled with curiosity?
A fellow sister of sin walks over and passes you a white towel and started wiping the floor that you have accidentally spilled onto. As she finishes, she bows nervously to the three higher up and turned towards you for the towel. Before you do, you gave her a bow as gratitude. She looks surprised as she smiles at you, waving her hand as she spoke.
"No worries! You're on a higher title than me, so there's no need to bow."
You frowned behind the mask, your tail tapping against the tiled floor in disapproval. She giggles as she opened her palm in front of you, signalling for the towel. You shook your head as you handed her the silver stained cloth to the sister, wondering if it's washable.
The cardinal smiles at the sight, it looked like the sister of sin is asking her pet animal for a handshake. However it was interrupted by someone clearing their throat. The owner of the voice stood up and walks over to you.
The sister of sin bows her head, "Good day sister imperator!" Before scurrying away, you bow towards sister imperator as she nods her head at you. Grabbing your clawed hands as she clasps them together, like a praying pose. But with her hands over yours.
She muttered in a unfamiliar language as she spoke a blessing before opening her eyes. Sister imperator gestures you towards the crown of brothers and sisters, "All hail the new ghoul assistant of the church,
.
.
.
Mercury."
