Grave Saint In Great Forks, as there are many little gods here that call it home, so too does the faiths serving them and even those of the Immaculates and it's heresies such as the Intou ancestors cults. In a plaza, there is a pale woman with lotus colored hair and a black dress with crimson floral designs like that of the higanbana, the red spider lily. The lady is accompanied by her few devotees who are mostly from the outskirts of the city and impoverished.

"Like a corpse being devoured by the earthly grave and nourish the plants like fertilizer, we must tend to our ancestors beyond life to appease them. As Sextis Jylis provides us with verdant bounties and health, he is a deathly reaper that poisons our crops and bring terrible plagues such as th Contagion of old" Despite her sermon not being fiery, she preaches it with stone cold conviction and it is like the chilling roar of a blizzard. "To revere the great dragon of wood, we must cultivate to the gardens of the dead" %

Tiziri "One of the many wandering sorts in Great Forks, Tiziri is walking along with her spearhead sheathed and peacebound." A speaker? Well, that at least catches the young woman's attention. She uses the spear as much as a walking stick and that gives her a rather languid sort of demeanor to put it mildly. she ends up pausing, a half cocked smile on her face as she listens, curiousity keeping her head tilted in an almost feral sort of way.
Grave Saint The haunting words of the pale priestess slithers into the hearts of those nearby, as almost all who listened are moved by the morbid sermon resulting in mixed reactions such as fear and awe. "If anyone is interested in joining us, we are situated in a shrine surrounded by red spider lilies in the outskirts. The Convent Of The Ruinous Emerald Thorn accepts all that accept our worship of Sextis Jylis as the god of life and death"

After the sermon ends, the priestess of Sextis Jylis notices a newcomer who just had arrived. "I am sorry if my preaching has just ended but hopefully you listened to the last part. But we sometimes preach here if no one uses the plaza, so you can see us here sometimes"

Tiziri The young woman with the spear shrugs a little bit. "It's ok." She responds non chalantly. "I like going around and just seeing what I can find here in Great Forks. It's always something new and interesting." There's a real languid air to her tone as she admits that too. "It makes it worth wandering, if nothing else." She gets a weird grin then. "Though I must say, you're still a touch away from the Depressed Fire Elemental challenging people to poetry contests. But hey, that's a pretty hard gig to beat, I hope you understand." She grins more widely, then starts to giggle. Then gets more serious, "I love your dress, by the way. It's really pretty!"
Grave Saint "Depressed Fire Elemental doing poetry huh? Although I mostly speak in sermons, I can adapt to other arts such as dance but right now, I am practicing singing while playing a pipa a nice old man gave me" She giggles a bit regarding the mention of the elemental.

"ah yes, my kimono. It fits well for me as I'm a wood aspect  but when I sometimes use my powers, petals of red spider lilies appear out of thin air. I am even mistaken for the incarnation of an exigent of red spider lilies that once resided in the field my Convent is in"

Tiziri Tiziri says, "Everything is ashes. It burns all my lashes..." Tiziri says with a wide grin. "So yeah, totally. I honestly thing that was one of the best days of my life. I don't mean to think bad of that elemental, it really was having a pretty awful day. Or Week. Or Century. But still! Yeah. It was quite a time." She continues to grin widely. "I did win. He told me where the best kebabs in town were. Great time."

Tizir looks over the woman then. Blinking. "Wow." She says in wonder, placing her fist holding the spear in her palm and bowing towards Grave Saint. "It is an honor. I'm Ardent Vagabond, or Tiziri. I work as a caravan guard so I can see new places.""

Grave Saint "I am Bleeding Higanbana, priestess and founder of the Convent Of The Ruinous Emerald Thorn. I am an outcaste from the Far East who arrived here to preach my faith even if it disturbs some people due to its Intou elements. Not surprised if some mainline Immaculate dislikes me"

"Oh you're a mercenary of sorts? not into that kind of job but I don't mind. Hmm since you are an explorer, where are you from?

Tiziri "The Southwestern coast of the Dreaming Sea." Tiziri responds to Grave Saint. "So a little closer to wherever you came from than you'd think. It was a small caravanserai sort of place called the Five Rocks." She smirks a bit, shaking her head. "It'd be more impressive if the rocks were much bigger than a small hut. but still. At the time, it felt so. Now? I'm glad I got out of there."
