Chereads / Deus Vult / Chapter 9 - VIII

Chapter 9 - VIII

(Kazimir walks among the bustling stalls of the village market, where Anežka purchases food from local farmers. Their eyes meet, and they greet each other warmly.)

Kazimir

"Amidst the stalls, 'tis fate, I see,

To find you, Sister, here with me.

Among the harvest, green and fair,

Your smile a light beyond compare."

Anežka

"Kazimir, how strange yet sweet—

The Lord decrees that here we meet!

The poor do toil and scrape for bread,

Yet kindness brings them life instead."

Kazimir

"A thought has bloomed within my mind,

To ease their toil, for all mankind.

But tell me, Sister, if I may,

What path shall lead us on this way?"

Anežka

"If gold you seek to give, then hear:

We'll lift them high and bring them cheer.

Buy from these hands, their fields, their toil—

To ease their hunger, heal their soil."

(Kazimir nods, inspired by her words. The scene closes as they begin gathering goods, with the farmers' grateful eyes upon them.)
