With a creak, the gate to the restricted area swung open.

A group of monks strode through the archway, entering the courtyard.

Carrying lanterns, they approached the dry well to inspect it. One of them remarked,

"It's just as I left it when I locked up, untouched."

The head monk scolded,

"Don't pry into matters that don't concern you. Mind your own business or you'll bring trouble upon yourself!"

The monk hastily nodded in agreement, "Yes!"

They sat in a circle around the well, beginning their chants.

They weren't blessing the site; they were sealing it.

Today, the ashes had been removed and now were to be returned. Gideon, fearing disturbances, had specifically instructed them to perform the ritual tonight.
