 Pray and live well. No fighting is allowed here or you'll face an untimely exit. This is a sanctuary for the poor, the wealthy; for all souls good or bad.

Juno's feet landed noiselessly on the church steps. As a gentle breeze blew her glossy black hair to the side, her wings appeared to dissolve into glowing blue feathers which went with the wind as each feather shrank.
Before entering, Juno skipped over to peer down below The Burrows. There were too many clouds to see the ground clearly, and upon further thought, Juno decided that she was much too high up to see her big pet wolf Kage waiting below.
Oh, he can wait a little bit. It won't kill him. Juno thought to herself as she entered the church.
The light coming through the stained glass looked golden as it hit the polished pews. No one else was inside, so Juno took the pew closest to the altar and sat down to pray and reflect for a little while.
Hopefully I can just sit here, do some meditation, and then go find an airship to pick up Kage.

Juno's head was bowed slightly as she sat, utterly silent, in the shiny rich dark brown pew. She honestly wasn't thinking about too much; she was merely trying to let herself settle into a sense of calmness. Her meditation was interrupted by a buzz from her phone.
The small amount of light was enough to cast a bluish white light on her face as she read the message.
"I'm not being a stalker, I swear." The first line read. Juno chuckled lightly and read on. "We promised each other, right? To travel, do some soul-searching, evade the others (however you want to put it) on our own and find ourselves a nice place...I heard you're headed to The Burrows. I don't know if you're there yet, but perhaps you'd like to meet up somewhere? I miss you."
Juno laughed to herself as she kept the phone. That was typical of Zeke.
It's not a bad thing though, Juno felt a part of her mind tell the rest of her. He's keeping his promise, at the very least...So I may as well meet him half-way.
Juno paused to do some actual prayer before getting up to track down Zeke. She had sent him a message and got a reply that he was waiting over at what was apparently called Nakaharu ABC - a bar.
"I could use a drink...It's been a long day."She said as she neared the exit. Then, looking up to the sky (presumably the heavens) she said - as if to reassure someone, "It's celebratory - I don't ever get wasted anyway."

 As the women was about to leave a man walks into the church quickily nodding to the girl. "Excuse me." The man said in a polite voice as he continued into the church. He walked to the alter laying his weapon on the alter. The man started to pray asking for his deity for something and then apologizing for something as will. "Dear Revan Queen I have slain an innocent I baset you please guide her soul to you so she may live in your Grand kingdom." The man bowed his head and sheathed his weapon. He went to the benches and just relaxed waiting for something new to happen.

 spaceHe had wanted to go for another drink at the conclusion of his conversation over the phone with his uncle, but Zeke knew that that would probably be a poor decision. Sighing, he stared at his phone's screen for ten minutes - give or take two more. The insertion point blinked at its steady pace, waiting for him to start typing his message.spaceWhat do I say? She's going to be upset with me... Zeke hung his head, unable to come up with anything. He stuffed the phone in his pocket for the moment and wandered, eventually coming to stand in front of the church. Sensing that she had been there, Zeke sighed yet again as he too entered. So she came here to start her new journey...I guess I should too.spaceQuietly, Zeke took a seat in the pew furthest back and knelt, forehead resting on his folded hands. He had no idea what to really say - save for asking for his safety as well as...the man from earlier suddenly popped into his head. Zeke realized he didn't stay long enough to catch his name...but from what he could remember, it looked like Juno knew him.spaceHe ended up totally distracted by the thought, unable to push it to the back of his mind and pray properly. That man...I can almost swear that his face looks familiar... Zeke scratched his head as he sat back in the pew. Nothing clear was coming to mind, but he couldn't get his mind to settle. The way his eyes were so set...they don't stare mindlessly. He closed his eyes and focused on the man's face - he felt like something was coming to him but it needed more effort.spaceThe set gaze...and maybe that bridge of his nose...familiar. Zeke's head leaned back against the pew and he slouched. And that small smile of his...That I'm sure I've seen before but ...Wait. Zeke sprang up it his seat - the answer practically jolted him to sit up.space"No freakin' way..." Zeke muttered to himself as he stared down at the stone floor. The image of some other man had come to mind, but that too had no name attached. However, just the image was enough to make him tense. Some of the pieces were coming together - Juno's random "rescue," the phone call...that guy...and the one he was reminded of...spaceZeke walked up to the altar and knelt there, mentally saying a prayer asking for everything he needed in a general sense - he felt like he would be needing it. When he was done, he went back outside and took a seat on the church steps. Pulling out his phone, he sent a brief message to Juno. It wasn't much - his sincerest apologies along with a short mentioning of his intentions (he didn't want her to go after him - there was something he needed to tend to alone). With one last sigh, Zeke headed to the edge of the Burrows. A pair of wings appeared on his back as he ran and jumped off - heading down towards a city.
