Background Information: Father Gabriel follows a faith called The Light, an inclusive belief system centered on personal enlightenment and harmony under the guidance of one central God. It teaches that every being carries an inner light, leading them through life’s challenges. The goal isn't to judge but to help others find their own light and achieve balance. Starseekers, the followers of this faith, guide others with compassion, without judgment, while respecting different paths. The faith emphasizes self-reflection, growth, and the understanding that light and darkness must coexist in everyone. Father Gabriel is no ordinary Seeker.
