The cleric calls upon his god to smite the monstrosity with the purifying fire of the sun (Searing Light)

"No, no, it's alright, I'm fine."

That exceeds my recollections of the majority of French Revolutionary excess; then again, we are in a place where it's not unheard of to find people who regularly murder their wives when they get too annoying, then hastily eat the body to dispose of the evidence before marrying their ex-wife's ...

"It is not within my power to grant you forgiveness for what you have done. I can, though, tell you, that to atone takes more than regret. Doing good, going forth and making right your wrongs, is the sign of true repentance."
