Master Of None

Chapter 1048: 1048. The Finished Cathedral

”I bet they wonʼt even realize we are back until we are right in the middle of the cathedral.” Walker was willing to place this bet. Mostly because he saw many people moving around the city. Builders and merchants were yelling as they brought merchandise and materials every which way. The cathedral was bound to be a little busy with the minor injuries that came with this hustle.

”They are working hard.” Alice pushed Walker lightly. She knew that he was joking around but she wanted to make sure that he knew that everyone in the cathedral was always working their hardest for the best of people. They werenʼt some fake religious cult. They believed in whatever created existence. They believed in the world and its systems.

Many people would say the holy lord in sentences to express many things. But for the church, it was a being that may have created all of the existence. It was complicated yet simple at the same time.

”I know, I have seen all of you doing your best until you canʼt go any further.” The apology was not one said lightly. Walker didnʼt want Alice to think he took the healing efforts for granted. ”I bet that people will travel miles just to have themselves healed here. Thatʼs how amazing the healers will be in Genesis.”

”Better.” She squeezed his hand harder and they walked through the open front doors of the cathedral to feel the warmth rush over them. Neither had realized just how cold the air was outside since they had been used to it traveling.

There was a profound difference between the cathedral when they had left and now. Large flowing curtains had been brought in to cover the glass if necessary. Many paintings and words of inspiration covered the walls. The healers all had brand new outfits of pure white with light elemental runes on them.

There were still only a handful of healers here but Walker knew that Lisa had sewn every single one of the light runes in to the fabrics they wore.

”Itʼs brighter…” They could feel the light emanating from around them. The next thing that caught their eye was a large crystal on a column by the center of the church. It radiated healing and warmth along with welcoming light. ”I should bring Onyx here.

He might just make this his new favorite place.” They had t stand there and take it all in before either could move away and check out the other half of the cathedral which has still been unfinished before they left.

Alice slowly pulled Walker in to the second side of the building. It had been made with a large stage. She hadnʼt realized this was in the plans until now. It had been perfectly designed for concerts with many musicians working together.

”I see you two have found the addition I hid from everyone else. I thought that the church should have a dedicated space like this for the haling songs played constantly. I even had the building designed so that the music will echo in to the main hall without taking away from the healing properties.

The dwarves thought I was a little crazy for it.” The high priest was sitting and watching three violinists practicing in the space, one of which Walker remembered Su speaking with before.

”And here I thought we would be surprising you. Especially since Alice has storied to tell you. But I think you had shocked her.” There were small tears forming in Aliceʼs eyes. She knew that if she sang here she would be able to heal many more people at once. She had always been limited to the space she had.

Now that the space was optimized for musical healing, then every musician that played healing melodies here would be doing the most.

”Well? Come give me a hug! I have wondered when you would be back every day since you left. You know I have never gone this long without seeing your smiling face in the morning.

Even when you were angry at me and threatened to sleep in the back garden forever you still came to wake me up.” Part of Walker wanted to ask about this more bit from the way that Alice and the high priest were laughing and hugging he knew it wasnʼt the time.

After the two had their moment, Walker decided to speak up. ”You know, Alice has a lot more songs than you might know. She helped purify water, defend against kraken, and heal all the wounded. I would say she might even get the title of healing saint one day.” Saying this wasnʼt far off. The title was rare for a healer but not unheard of.

Usually, healers around the world would gain the title after healing a certain number of people over time. It also had other requirements that not many knew about.

”Funny you say that. I found an old journal from the high priest before me. Apparently, he once met a traveling singer with the title, saint of song. I didnʼt find anything else about it but apparently after hearing the man sing the former high priest decided to join the church and dedicate their life to saving people.

It changed him from who he was to who he was meant to be.” Walker and Alice wanted to sit and hear about both of these people. But the high priest was much more eager to hear their journey. Alice couldnʼt hold herself back either.

Between Alice and Walker, the two were able to share their entire journey. The slight creases in the high priestʼs face became deeper during the more dangerous parts. Yet, when they spoke of the boiling beach he showed some awe. Before Walker had left, he felt the high priest grab his shoulder, ”If you follow this through, you will have my blessing whether I am alive or have returned to the world.

Iʼm an old man, I know that, but I know how to read someone. I wasnʼt always a healer of the church either.” Walker was too caught up by this to even be able to say goodbye as the pair walked deeper in to the church so that Alice can get proper rest. The journey had been more than she had expected and she deserved rest.
