Putting away his teapot and burner, Father Quadrial gets up to follow his compatriots.
Then a last moment thought he walks over to the brides cairn.
Pulling a hand carved cross from his pack (a gift from a young brother when the monk left the abbey which has been soaked in holy water and blessed by the head of the monastery), he sets it on the top of tomb.
"Best to cover our backs if we can." He says and heads up the stairs.
