»You should beg for mercy. You will soon enough.« Luther has sinned. Now he has to face the consequences. Taken from his home and family in the middle of the night, down to the hidden chambers below the church, Luther has nothing left but to await his punishment, carried out by the local priest. Father Nicholas is prepared for this gruesome task, but little does he know that Luther's sinful heart does not ache for redemption, but for sweet agony caused by his hand.
