Success

Description summary:
The first paragraph reflects choices you made while founding the Burrow Church.

Church: DedicationSaint Paragraph
1: St CeciliaFlower petals and harpsichord hymns wafting on the wind. The scent of rosewater and incense. A lone chapel on a hill. The idyll you craft for your London audience is one of bucolic perfection.
2: A saint of your own makingYou preach the gospel of the Burrow Church's saint, whose holy bones hang glorious in their entirety from the clerestory. Given that this saint was one of your invention, their gospels shift conveniently to match the ideals of your audience.
3: The DrummerYou perform panegyrics to the Drummer Saint, the heartbeat of the world, the sacred skin from which all rhythm – and isn't life a kind of rhythm? – concatenates into the world. Of his infernal heritage, you remain silent.
