Just An Eunuch
****(POV)
Pour, wash, wipe and repeat.
Pour water, so much water that my arms get sore from carrying it. Pour it on the Floor, the statues, the columns, everywhere.
Wash everything. Scrub it with a brush until the skin on my hands begins to burn. Do so until it blisters from the repeated action. All until everything is sparkly clean.
Wipe it all. Pass a cloth all over, making sure my own blood doesn't stain it. Wipe everything, even if waiting does the job too.
All so this place can be shiny and beautiful. After all, the sect members come here to pray. Can I afford to slack off? Nope, otherwise, I won't even eat.
Doing it once is fine. Same for doing it twice. But doing it every single day, forever...is pure torture. What even keeps me alive? I am here to atone for my sins. What sins have I committed? I failed my job incredibly.
