Frederick lied on the bench with his hands wrapped tightly together and his head hanging. Yet, he could not focus. The man had been religious for centuries before this hellhole spawned, so he kept up with the habit by heading to the church once a day. Still, today was different somehow. He had wandered into some other church by the chance that he may find some local civilians in need of a few pointers after his initial confession and prayers. Though, something was bothering him. A woman in specific.
His head rose at the sound of her footsteps and his gaze followed her. She lit her candle and whispered her prayer. Something about her tone unnerved him though, sending shivers down his spine. He lowered his head and kept to himself, figuring he shouldn't bother. Everyone had their personal problems to deal with and he didn't want to enter another's mess, seeing that his presence would only make them more vulnerable and he would have another problem on his plate. Frederick tipped his head back down and closed his eyes, continuing his mumbling.
The sovereign could not shake the feeling though. As he whispered his final words, he moved upwards and stretched out a few. In the corner of his eye, she was beginning to compose herself and Frederick bit the inside of his cheek in frustration. Perhaps he should approach. Hell, he should approach and so he did.
He stopped in his stride behind her, aiming to tap her on the shoulder lightly to break her out of whatever trance she was in. "Excuse me miss," came his mutter. "Perhaps we could step outside to talk-" There seemed to be others doing their own things and he didn't want to distract them. "-and get to know one another." As always, the nosiest man. A hand reached to his chin and scratched at his beard lightly as he spoke further. "I couldn't help but to hear a bit." Company was the best in the darkest times.
