	Of course the soldiers didn't speak English. It was a shot in the dark at best, anyway, considering the lack of response when they refused to answer her earlier. Curiously, they seemed to understand what Bishop Mansfield was saying to them, using the same King's English that Mary herself employed for the purposes of conversation. Perhaps it was the Apostolic's more stoic nature while engaging in professional activities. The Bishop was most certainly a more expressive fellow. If they recognized him as the superior in charge of this church, and he demonstrated trust in Mary that showed through with tone and expression rather than actual spoken language, that could account for her entry into the Chapel, if under escort. 

	But that thought was secondary to what she was witnessing with the Russian noblewoman and her new charge. Some manner of divination, she surmised, involving physical contact and gazing into the eyes of the ill-stricken child. Perhaps this was a demonstration of another of God's gifts, bestowed upon his faithful? Or something else entirely. It did not look like the somaticism of anything she was exposed to at the Vatican. Jerusalem, perhaps? They were viewed with a little wariness by the Catholic Church, but disciples of the Holy Land received their abilities by God's grace and behest. Even from what comparatively little she knew about the teachings of the Middle East, she could not place this technique. Quite possibly, Mary had been shown something new. That would be a very interesting turn of events, especially if this were something that a Papist like herself could recreate. 

	Even this revelation, the means by which the task at hand was accomplished, was immaterial when held next to the result of said task. Elizaveta had somehow gleaned more information than Mary could have, and voiced her preference to share this newly found knowledge in a more private environs. Sister Mary began to nod her head for a good half-second before she began to speak.
