"Sixty-Eight years old, and what do I have to show for it? Hands that can barely grasp a spoon, and cancer. I gave my whole life to the church. I missed out on so much in the name of God. Is this regret for all the opportunities I've missed? Yes. Bitter, cold regret."

"I took this assignment so I could keep the young women under my care safe. They're rebellious and naïve, so I certainly had my work cut out for me. But now I have to deal with some college boy who no doubt seeks to corrupt them. I'll have to keep a close eye on him."

"The next morning I awoke to a face I haven't seen in forty years. My hands worked, my body was revitalized, and my hair was raven black again. Was this my reward for my devotion? Or was this some sort of test? All the paths I didn't take in my life were now opened to me. I could start over and travel a different road."

"But no, I had been deceived. When I went to speak to God, he did not respond. This was not His will. We were being tricked by some dark entity! Temptation had found us. I will not be led into sin! I had to seek out someone to exorcise this house."

"The local church sent someone promptly. However, she wasn't quite what I expected. She insisted the property wasn't haunted, but instead was erected on some sort of dimensional rift. Everything she said went over my head, but I did like the idea that I could be someone else here. Someone... less bound by rules."
