[QUOTE="pogre, post: 625761, member: 6588"] [b]Bridget's Story[/b] Bridget’s Story Bridget was relaxing in the watchtower after the group’s successful foray to Kleston Manor when something hit her. She would have believed it a sickness, because she was light headed, disoriented, and her ears were ringing. She stood for a moment trying to gain her bearings, but the light sensation would not abate. Bridget’s natural reaction in these situations was to pray to Opheria for guidance and she fell to one knee. Oh temptress and protector what ails me, if I am plagued by demons drive them out. If it is punishment for disobedience, enlighten me. I pray to thee soothe me! [I]You are not being punished Bridget. Your work has brought Opheria joy and she is granting you great favor.[/I] Bridget was speechless. Never had one of her general prayers been answered so directly. She clenched her eyes tighter. What favor is this all-powerful one that makes me feel so sick that I barely can keep from feinting? [I]I have but brought you a message from Opheria; I am her messenger Delphia. Your sickness is a sign of favor. Much like a woman with child in the early stages she receives signs of her blessing in the form of such sickness.[/I] Delphia, may I address you by name without fear of retribution? [I]Open your eyes child, you need not fear me. Your sight brings me great joy and you should not lay prostrate quivering before this messenger.[/I] Bridget opened her eyes and saw only a small point of light hovering before her. “Is this light you Delphia?” Bridget noticed she was speaking aloud for the first time. [I]It is I. Let men worship war mongering deities that demand prostrate supplication. Let us converse in meaningful tones without resorting to such groveling. This is not my true form, but is all you can see of me at this stage of your maturity.[/I] The point of light was speaking directly into Bridget’s mind. She relaxed and answered in kind only thinking of her questions. What is this favor for? Am I bound to a purpose? [I]It is a blessing child. You have a purpose, but nothing is defined as that. Already you have helped lead one to their true calling and others besides him will follow. He will be a great champion for the Mother.

All will come…”[/I] The small light faded away. Bridget awoke and she wondered, was it all a dream? Then she found her faith had been supplemented in her morning prayers. New miracles of faith and healing came forth in a torrent. What a blessing Opheria had brought her!
