Some say he was a stargazer.

He would sit at sundown on the hill and wait for the stars to shine and he would sit there entranced, paper and pens moving of their own violation around him, catalouging the ever-changing sky. They he would curl into a ball and sleep when the sun rose again. Night after night, whereon not even an emperor stomping around could break his trance.

Eventually the clan that supported his writing would move on; and though they tried, they could not move the stargazer from his place. For another week he wrote on pen and paper, but soon his paper ran out and his pen ran dry. There was but on thing left to catalouge the stars on, though.

Still, they find it difficult to consider leaving, after all, if they left, then the church would likely be left entirely alone. No offerings are left, no broken windows patched, no leaves swept off the steps. They couldn't help but stay a while to spruce things up when they first came, and this easily slipped into a routine.

Noises that aren't noises, can't be heard no matter how hard they try, but push in on their ears all the same. A feeling that something is holding on to you as you walk under thin branches, one that doesn't leave once you're home, once you're in bed and dreaming. The forest is all you see, even those things that are dragon-made.
