Faestien was very fascinated by the story presented by this stranger. He understood it, on a deeper and more personal level.
For he himself had been a Man standing in the middle of Life and Death throughout his life.
There is something about the way he presented the tale that is not just entertaining, but rather, something that will touch you not in an emotional level or anything. Entertainment relies heavily on the emotional response of the spectators. But that does not seem to be priest's goal upon presenting his tale. His goal is not to evoke emotion or thought.....
But a sort of transcendental understanding only for those who can understand it. For those who can fathom it.
Not knowledge, not wisdom. But something higher that could not be put into words or comprehended.
