A once-devout disciple returns to keep vigil with the corpse of the prophet he once betrayed. But he’s confronted by the charlatan’s most zealous supporter, who uses the wayward follower’s own transgressions to undermine his search for the truth.  
What does it cost the soul to perpetuate a lie if it comforts the faithful?
