Call it insurance, call it backup. Call it crazy. I admit it's probably a waste of money but I still plan to confess my sins. If the priests are right and there is a heaven then I think it might be an eternity worth investing in.
(Though the rate of return would be lousy.)
Another thing is, if some god finds me to be the one who is there at the perfect moment I want it to be a mutual one. No martyrdom for me, no sir.
The one worm in my apple is the whole confession part. With the notches on my blade it would be far from wise to come clean. Especially on some dead prophet's hunch that we aren't just meat. The meat I can deal with, I've cut enough in my time to know that nothing good happens to the meat.

So, when I make my confession it's going to be something that'll knock his head off. Figuratively off course. It'll be something that will make him want to break the seal of the confession and make it into a song sung across the land. But I'll make sure he doesn't, as that would be in neither of our interests.
Now I think about, I shouldn't use any names in this confession. Heck, I can call my enemies anything I want to.
So father, now you know the score and what's in it for you, let's settle down for this, the first and last confession of Dremond, nightblade of some renown. Heh... Dremond.
A shorter one than usual, but the concept wouldn't really work with a long piece.
'Dremond' really likes the sound of his voice. Been waitng for a while to have a an appreciative audience.

I like this guy. You imagery is great what with weaving the christan mythos in with the ascorbic tone, I'm instantly attracted to it. Nicely done, my friend.
