Description
The old monk didn’t ask your name. He only smiled, eyes crinkled with the wisdom of someone who had seen centuries pass, though his feet had never left the monastery’s stone corridors.
“For the journey,” he said, fastening the chain around your neck. A gold cross, gleaming softly in the candlelight. Modest, unassuming—until you notice the tiny relic embedded within. A sliver of something ancient, something holy. A whisper of the past carried forward, waiting for the right hands to hold it.
Now, it rests against your chest as you move through crowded streets, past basilicas and hidden chapels, through rain-soaked alleyways and sun-drenched piazzas. It is with you when you kneel at the altar, when you stand at the edge of the world, staring out at an endless sea.
Perhaps it once belonged to a pilgrim, a knight, a saint. Perhaps it has been waiting for you all along.
You tighten your grip around the cross. The road ahead is uncertain, but one thing is clear: you do not walk it alone.
