TNGF
SELECTED
Pope Leo I
primary
An elderly man with a gaunt face, sunken cheeks, and thinning white hair. His pale skin is marked with age spots and deep wrinkles, especially around his eyes and forehead. His hands are thin and veined, resting weakly on the bedcover.
Archdeacon
secondary
A middle-aged man of slight but dignified build, with a clean-shaven face and deep-set, thoughtful eyes. His thin lips are pressed together in solemnity, and his hands, though aged, are steady with purpose.
Deacon
secondary
A young man in his late 20s, with a slender build and a clean-shaven face. His dark hair is closely cropped in the style of early Christian clergy, and his deep-set brown eyes reflect both reverence and sorrow. His hands are clasped in prayer, showing the calluses of frequent manual labor in service to the church.
Mourning Woman
background
A middle-aged woman with a frail, slightly hunched build, her face lined with grief and devotion. Her dark brown eyes are red-rimmed from crying, and her hands, rough from years of manual labor, clutch a simple wooden cross. Her graying hair is loosely tied back under a modest veil.

Dialog

Pope Leo I Dominus providebit... Though my time in this earthly vessel wanes, my spirit finds solace in His eternal grace.
Archdeacon Holy Father, your flock remains steadfast. Your deeds shall echo through the ages, as when you turned the Scourge of God from our gates.
Pope Leo I Attila... That was not my victory, but the Lord's. A mere lamb speaks, and the wolf departs—such is the power of divine providence.
Archdeacon Yet the lamb was you, Vicar of Christ. Rome stands by your intercession.
Pope Leo I Prepare the rites, my son. The Shepherd must now follow where His flock shall one day tread.
