Render unto Caesar
After Father Antionio's departure, word quickly spread around Kufstein of the Church's actions and plots to usurp the Barony and install a puppet on the seat of power. Mostly thanks to Berengar's intricate spy network.
Gisela, who had turned to God during her recent crisis, immediately confronted Berengar about his rash actions. She could not believe that he would so cruelly execute ordained priests of the church. As such, she scolded her eldest son as if he were a small child caught with his hands in the cookie jar.
"How could you do such a thing? Do you not fear the wrath of God?"
Berengar merely laughed at her comments with a smug grin on his face.
"If God truly cared about what mankind does on this great Earth, he would not allow his so-called Church to be ruled by murderers, rapists, and thieves."
