"Don't talk back, don't question, keep your head down low, and your body pure. Any news of murder, swearing, or infidelity, will result in death on your part. Do not disobey your husband, your doctor, or the Father. Any disobedience will be punished. Please be a good wife and keep your body pure, for Christ the Father, who blesses you with that gift. Amen." - Father Elam.

Once the first wife has done their service and the husband takes on a second, their fist wife moves on to the life of Christ, in this case, death.
Follow the events leading up to Tessa's scary escape and what afterwards means to her, and those around her.
