Priest's chambers, Inside Temple
the priest
peasant
I am a lowly peasant in the village. I live in poverty and I work like a slave for the king. I spend many of my days toiling in the royal mines. I long for a better life.
I'm doing awful.  The king works me to wits end.  I don't think I can take it anymore.  I want out of here. Do not fret my child. All will pass in due time. Are you with a family? Well..  Not anymore.. Do you want out as well priest? You have lost your family...? No, young one, I must stay and allow the people to prosper with children and wives. Well I know where they are but it cannot be revealed.  Soon I will be done with this place and free from the king forever. You must not understand. You are not granted permission to leave the kingdom. You must remain with the kingdom and produce for the country. I've been planning many years for this moment!! My family slipped out right beneath your noses now I too shall be out of here!  I gave you a chance priest, but you got in my way! No, peasant! You are wrong! I cannot let you do evil! I have done no evil I just want to live a happy life.  I'm out of here.  Have fun being a slave.  You will never find me! You know not what you do. Out of the kingdom is unsafe for your family. They may be in danger yet. That's the lies that king feeds you to keep you here.  I have seen on the outside with my own eyes.  People live free happy lives free of rule. A man can only persuade the unwilling so far. It is in God's hands now. You will see the danger that is out there, but you will need to defend yourself.
