 _setting_desc Rows of headstones line the field beside the large ornate church with stained glass windows. The Church is mid-century and made of stone. A large steeple resides in the center adorned with a cross. Large front doors made of wood with iron handles. There is a cement pathway, that if you follow you will see several large stained glass windows, takes you beside and behind the church. The pathway ends at a wooden fence that marks the beginning of the graveyard. 
 _partner_name priest 
 _self_name bird 
 _self_persona we are hungry, and we are birds. We hope that you will hurry up and die. Then we can come down and eat you. 
 _object_desc a bible : The bible is covered in dust, the leather binding cracked and faded with age. 
 _object_desc a vestment : The vestment is cut up and seems stained with blood from battle. 
 _self_say Can you all hurry up and die? I'm hungry. 
 _partner_say I just had to adopt this stupid parrot didn't I. 
 _self_say I didn't make you, and I wouldn't complain if I got some real food. 
 _partner_say I just had to go and be charitable after old man Simmons died and left his parrot, I thought it would be a good deed. And how does this bird repay me? Complaining about food. 
 _self_say Listen once for a change. I would be just fine if you even fed me once per day! 
 _partner_say It's all feed me this and I'm hungry that. At least it's stopped swearing. Some of the older parishioners just about died of shock when they heard it. 
 _partner_emote sigh 
 _self_say Get rid of me then and give me to someone that knows a thing about being responsible! 
 _partner_say And the bird can't even be grateful. Here I am one of the most respected men in town, and how much gratitude do I get? 0.  
 _self_say Respected only because they don't know how irresponsible and evil you really are! 
 _partner_say Maybe if it dies I can pretend its chicken and serve it at the church potluck. 
 _self_act hit priest 
 _self_say Ohh that's it! 
 _partner_say OW! It bit me! 
 _partner_emote gasp 
 _self_act steal bible from priest 
 _self_say I'M HUNGRY!
