The Fat Friar
Marcus St. Mellony was a simple man. He enjoyed what he thought of as the finer things in life: good mutton, the purple flowers of mallow and the way the spilled across the ground in midsummer, the flight of a bumblebee hard at work. Marcus appreciated work; he worked tirelessly himself, mostly with the villains of society, men rejected by their fairer and more solicitous companions in that race. Marcus had found, through his work with recovering convicts, that many men simply need that forgiveness of Jesus Christ in their lives. They need to believe that someone believes that they can do better. It is in forgiveness that the strength to overcome adversity was to be found. This was Marcus's tireless work. This was his sermon of a Sunday. And he still believed it, he always would.
Even after his current charge, a certain lady of the night named only Coretta, had dosed him with a singular poison and dispatched him to his doom.
