No sooner than when they were just out of hearing of Jesus were they discussing their good fortunes and how this knowledge would serve their own ends. Their only concern was how much to charge and who to start with. Should they serve the wealthiest of merchants, commanding a great fee for those who were killed on caravan trips by bandits and the desert? Should they just go to nobility, making themselves nobles in exchange for dynasties that last forever? Or, should they simply start their own religion(s), asking generous 'donations' to recieve such a 'blessing'? As they were discussing this, the group was walking in a deserted place when they saw a heap of whitened bones. "Let us try out the word." they said to each other. |
