"Ah, yes.", Father Divolt wore his especially sheepish smile, the one he wore when speaking to lost lambs. "Times are terrible, but..", he also used a dramatic pause usually reserved for enpassioned sermons. And the nod, the slow nod that accelerated into three full nods. A powerful emote, added with the eyes made a skin contact with wink but never went it through. He spread his arms slowly and gazed upon the Heavens above, locked behind an ceiling of cold and dark stone.
".. but Helm watches over us."
The Father receded from the heavenly stare as if he knew the Vigilant one had seen him, and landed his palms with ceremonial twirls on his lap in a clasp. His eyes rested back on the lamb the very moment his palms cushioned against one another. His high cheeks nearly touched the wrinkles set beside his eyes.
"The Vigilant one is ever watching, rest assured, unwavering in his guard. And, if you had been too-"
The round iron ring of keys tinkled out from his palms.
"You could've been alive. Now roll aside to your belly, little lamb-", Divolt leant in and shoved the lamb by the shoulder.
"Daddy needs his knife back."
[last minute edit, took away the infernal rasp for more punch to the shock]
