Many books and religious idols litter the chamber. A squat chair with a high back sits at an ornate desk. A cup of holy water lies on the desk. Bookshelves line the entire chamber with religious texts.

a spider
an acolyte preparing for evening prayer service
An acolyte 's work is very done.  My prayers to our gods are never ending.  One day, I hope the gods will bless me for my prayers.
I hear a voice ... but see no one! Who speaks? What have you been doing with all the flies? I am hungry! Are you ... a talking spider? Is this sorcery? A message of the gods? I do not know what to think Message from who?  This is the temple of Arzeth, Lord of Water. Do spiders have gods? Oh so you actually say there is a god? I thought that was just a joke all humans went along with. You have ALL these books dedicated to one man? Have you ever met him? I know him by the falling rain that sustains our crops, by the expanse of the mighty oceans Ah yes. The rain. It sure does make my web in the trees glisten. Tell me, how is it you have come to speak the language of man. I have seen many spiders, but none that could speak.  I was born this way! I tend not to speak to man, as they just try and kill me. I can see how this could be. Do all spiders possess this gift, and merely choose to be silent? Indeed they do, we just keep to ourselves!
