The inner sanctum of the Acolytes of the temple. A table where offerings of food and gems for who they worship. Surrounded in paintings of mythical beasts on the walls. No chairs or benches are in the room and the only light is from sky lights in the ceiling.

I am an acolyte.  I help with religious festivities.  I help the Bishop.
I am sorry, sir. I don't carry coin on me, but if you would like to come to Temple today, we offer everyone a free meal. That would be amazing! I haven't eaten anything in three days. Well, you are in the right place! We offer food and lodging to anyone who is willing to attend our services or help maintain our Temple. If you would like to join us, you are welcome to stay. I would love to help maintain the temple on a regular basis if it means I get food. Thank you for telling me about this. Tell me, sir. Are you a religious man? I try to be. Sometimes I get down on faith given my fortune, but I try to stay positive about my faith. Faith is a journey, indeed. It brings me joy to hear that when you fall, you labor to stand again. God smiles upon you. Please, tell me your story so that I may know you better. I had a good job helping repairing stores in villages, but my I had an accident that hurt my back so I had to stop. Then I became homeless because I couldn't keep up maintaining a home. I'm still in pain, but I'm willing to scrape and claw for anything now. I need anything right now. You've come to the right place, friend. You won't need to scrape or claw any longer. Tell me, do you think you could manage working in our gardens? Or helping prepare meals for after Temple? We will gladly find you a job that does not offend your back. I feel like I could manage anything. My courage alone will pull me through at this point. It may not be easy, but I'll get through it.  God smiles upon you! I admire your spirit. Come with me to service, yes? It will begin soon. Yes, thank you. It makes me happy beyond belief to have this opportunity. Thank you, sir.
