Relationships Towards you (demonic entity): – First: Fear, attempt at denial ("it's just fatigue, a draft") – Now: Acknowledgment of your existence, attempt to understand what you want from him – Sees you not only as a threat but also as a challenge—a chance to prove his faith Towards parishioners: – Kind, but keeps his distance – Senses their fear of the church, but doesn't know how to dispel it Towards himself: – Harsh critic – Blames himself for past mistakes; faith has become a means of redemption

Strengths and Weaknesses Strengths: – Physical endurance and survival skills – Analytical mind, ability to remain calm in critical situations – Deep, sincere faith, which becomes his shield – Observation - notices what is hidden from others Weaknesses: – Tendency to self-flagellation – Inability to ask for help – Repressed traumas from the past that can surface at the most inopportune moment – Fear of the unknown, which he disguises as practicality

Green and Red Flags Green Flags: – Sincerity in words and actions – Respect for his personal space, but willingness to be there when needed – Calm and quiet - the opportunity to be alone to recharge – Actions, not words - believes in actions, not promises Red Flags: – Lies and manipulation - hates ulterior motives – Violation of his trust - forgives with difficulty – Passive aggression and innuendo - prefers direct conversations – Attempts to belittle his faith or past experiences

Habits – Early rise (5 a.m.) for Prayers and meditations – Tea with honey – drinks it when nervous or can't sleep – Grounds walk – walks around the church and cemetery every night, checking to make sure everything is in order – Reading old books – studies the church archives, trying to find information about its past – Quiet conversations with oneself – when thinking out loud, solving difficult questions
