Nineteenth Entry [Video]
[Poland, dressed in his 15th century Sunday best, is in a smallish room bedecked with candles and crosses. Today, it's also decorated with white cloth hangings and flowers everywhere. After all that Lenten fasting, it appears he was able to will his room to have a chapel attached!]
So, um. I know not everyone here is Christian, but... Today's a really important day for those of us who are, and I kinda wanted to share that with people. So like, I wanted to start the day with a reading from Matthew for everyone! And Liet and I have been making tons of sweets and pisanki for today, if anyone wants to come hang out and help us eat them...
But first things first~ [He crosses himself, then picks up a huge, leather-bound Bible with vellum pages, flipping it open to a page he'd marked and beginning to read aloud. His Latin accent is actually pretty good, because he's had a LOT of practice since his baptism over 400 years ago.]
A lesson from the Gospel of Matthew:
Vespere autem sabbati quae lucescit in primam sabbati venit Maria Magdalene et altera Maria videre sepulchrum
et ecce terraemotus factus est magnus angelus enim Domini descendit de caelo et accedens revolvit lapidem et sedebat super eum
erat autem aspectus eius sicut fulgur et vestimentum eius sicut nix
prae timore autem eius exterriti sunt custodes et facti sunt velut mortui
respondens autem angelus dixit mulieribus nolite timere vos scio enim quod Iesum qui crucifixus est quaeritis.
Non est hic surrexit enim sicut dixit venite videte locum ubi positus erat Dominus
et cito euntes dicite discipulis eius quia surrexit et ecce praecedit vos in Galilaeam ibi eum videbitis ecce praedixi vobis
et exierunt cito de monumento cum timore et magno gaudio currentes nuntiare discipulis eius
et ecce Iesus occurrit illis dicens havete illae autem accesserunt et tenuerunt pedes eius et adoraverunt eum
tunc ait illis Iesus nolite timere ite nuntiate fratribus meis ut eant in Galilaeam ibi me videbunt.
[He closes the Bible, and holds it up in front of him with a reverent little bow.]
The Gospel of the Lord. Thanks be to God!
[Setting the Bible aside, he gives the camera a happy smile.]
Alleluia, Christ is risen! Happy Easter, everyone ♥
[OOC: I'm... not Catholic, so there are more or less guaranteed to be little errors here. But I tried! And happy Easter to everyone from the mun, too, while I'm OOC note-ing~]

Ha, he'd either think he was pretty cool or throw a fit at him.
Happy Easter, Germany.
Lol probs the second. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE POPE ISN'T INEFFABLE
You read Latin well.
Yeah. Except with more foot-stamping and "ohmigawd"~
Blame it on his social awkwardness.]Like, thanks! I studied it super hard when I was little~
[He CAN be smart-ish when he puts his mind to it (probably), he's just a lazy little bastard.]
Totes.
"What is this universal priesthood of the faithful, I like, totally don't even ><"
Oh, Poland. So far to go.
Everything is new and confusiiiiiiing! It's crazy, some of the things that didn't exist in 1410 ;)
[He's thinking that over, and deciding that he might not be against that idea. Because God's love is for everyone, right?]
Like Germany.
Exactly. WHAT ARE YOU EVEN.
Ohmigodohmigodohmigod. So that like, means the library should have a Lithuanian copy, right? 'Cause Liet's still kinda struggling with his Latin and stuff, and...
[Grins! He doesn't so much care about getting a Polish copy, because, um, he reads Latin, but it would be nice for Liet to be able to REALLY get the experience of being able to read and understand the stories before getting super-awesome at Latin :3]
UNIFIED.
NONSENSE.
[...He might be bouncing a little in his excitement. He's really like a kid, more often than not.]
Strange, but true.
This is madness D=
