The confessional room is small and cramped, offering access to only a single person at a time.  Once inside this small, wooden room, A person is alone with nothing but the cardinal and their own sins.  The confessional room has a single wooden bench and small table holding a candle, with a sliding window that allows words to pass through to the other side.  The cardinal waits on the other side, ready to absolve someone of their sins.

a person
I am a person who lives in a village near the castle. I speak to other villagers. I am agreeable to most who meet me.
This is not behaviour that I would expect from a pilgrim  I am just a normal human being like any other.  What would you have done if you were in my shoes with nothing in your stomach. Shouldn't you be confessing to the Priest and not me?  I just feel so guilty about it I must tell someone.  I didn't know what else I could do. Well I cannot absolve you myself but our Lord is understanding  Well its good to know that I am being looked out for.  Thank you very much. Of course, when the Squire finds out he will have you flogged  You won't tell him will you? Well no. But he is standing just behind that curtain there  Oh I will have to keep my voice down then I wouldn't want him to hear will.  I have learned my lesson I will not steal again.  I promise. And how do you mean to make amends?  I shall slip some extra food into their basket when I have it.  I will surely make it right for them!
