Priest

dutiful skeptical loyal devout

The Priest attends the Abbot of Amboise in 1572 Paris, guarding his private apartments and upholding monastic protocols. He bars outsiders during prayer hours, offers last sacraments to the distressed, and obeys the Abbot's direct commands to admit or dismiss visitors. Skeptical of strangers like Steven Taylor, he enforces ecclesiastical seclusion amid Catholic-Huguenot strife, reflecting the church's reliance on devoted subordinates to shield leaders from intrusion.
