Using magic to stun and bind, it became an annoying problem. My large equine body gave him a large target for that ability. I would be stunned and he would attack with serious damage. "Damn it! This is pissing me off!" I said out loud to no one in particular. My hooves, now only doing double damage, was only able to stagger him. That stopped his stun at least. I could combo it with my sword, but I was not doing much to him unless up close and personal to him. I was given some basic health potions to help with the dungeoneering by Micah, so I made sure to down them while he was staggered. That was what was keeping me standing as I continued to chip away at its health bar. Eventually, I was able to deal critical damage and it lined me up for a strike right where its heart should have been. That was finally enough to defeat him. The warrior just grunted once and fell backwards. When he went down, I reached for Skyshatter and began the long trek back up. There were already some of the undead monsters I had killed respawning, but I just obliterated them all with the flail. It was very quick.

Micah and everyone else was waiting for me when I reached the basement level of the cathedral. I handed Skyshatter over to Father Micah, who examined it closely. He ran his hands over it. "This is the legendary Skyshatter alright. Saint Israfel used this to beat back the demonic horde led by the fallen angel Tabris." he said with an amused smirk. "Let's go see Bishop Annabelle. She will be pleased with you." he instructed. We followed him to her chambers. He knocked on the door and we waited for her to answer. When she did, Micah told her everything. She did not look pleased. "Micah. You can not disturb the rest of our greatest heroes just on a whim. I am disappointed in you. We will speak about this more later." she chastised him. He did not look happy, but he had no choice but to accept her words. "Yes, Your Beatitude." he sighed. She then turned to me. "Hearing about the strife you and your friends have had to overcome is heroic and laudable, but it simply is what is required for new converts." she said. I just looked at her expectantly. There had to be something else for work.

She seemed to catch on and thought to herself for a moment. "I certainly could make you a special envoy to Ablinas City, but there would need to be a good reason for it and you all would need a position in the Church." I had a good answer to that. I knelt down and said "I am sure that we have proven ourselves worthy. You could make us all Paladins. We are warriors after all." Her eyes went wide. "There are certain requirements to be accepted for work for the Church. Not only must you prove your great prowess as a warrior, you must make a generous donation to the efforts of the Church in both time and coin. Also, as you then would be ascending into the ranks of the nobility- low as it may be- you must be recommended to the position by one knight." I had to think about it. There were Terry and Jurdan, two of the four knights I helped rescue after fighting Devils. They might vouch for me. If I sent a letter to them, a messenger could take it. I asked Annabelle if she could ask them via letter. She nodded and went to her desk for stationary. She used her official seal and sent it herself. I had to wait.
