As the days had gone by, Father Cyril was more in belief that the man would not return, but Lucien still believed in him. He said it could take up to a week after all, and they were nearing the end. It was still within the time frame he had been given, so he did not lose hope. It was upon the sixth day that there was a knock on the door. Usually the priest did not receive many visitors, as anyone who wanted to speak with him usually went to the church to do so. Lucien practically flew out of his room before Father Cyril could make it to the door.
"Faolan!" He exclaimed, but held off on the hug, considering the reactions the man had to them. The man looked incredibly wary, which then brought about concern into his expression, but relatively he seemed alright. He was quick to step aside so he could enter. Father Cyril was clearly surprised to see him, after all he hadn't actually expected him to return. Still, it seemed the man was tired, so he didn't think they'd be heading out today. He would be sure to have a talk with him tomorrow.
"Feel free to clean up and use the couch." The priest said simply, before heading off to his room. It wasn't like he was trying to be the bad guy here, the man was clearly tired, but he worried about what this might mean for Lucien in the future. He had a lot to think about overnight.
Once the priest had gone, Lucien turned his attention back to Faolan. "Are you alright?" He asked him, considering the man's tiredness. Of course he was happy the man had come back but, he wanted to make sure he was in good health before they departed. He didn't want him to push himself either. He could bear to stay a little longer if it was necessary.
