Angela Discovers Something Strange

Near the altar, she unexpectedly heard a voice. At first, she thought it was the priest who regularly came to the convent to read Mass for the nuns. But the tone sounded different, muffled and hollow, somehow distorted, as if the words were coming through the wall.

“Come closer, my child. Over here, next to the door to the sacristy.”

Angela followed the instruction and discovered the hole through which the priest could see into the nave to check that the congregation was assembled before he stepped up to the altar.

Was the voice coming from there? She moved closer. And then something completely unexpected happened.

A strange thing pushed its way through the hole from the other side.

Angela had never seen anything like it before. It appeared to be a rod several fingers thick with a reddish, mushroom-shaped cap at its tip. Its skin-colored sheath and the veins running along its side seemed to indicate that it was made of flesh and blood. But how could that be? She had never seen such a body part before. Its purpose was a mystery to her.

Curious, she examined it closely. The smell was a little pungent, almost like an animal, but not unpleasant. When she touched it carefully with her fingertips, it felt warm and yielding. It was moist at the thickened tip.

The disembodied voice moaned at the first touch.

“Oh yes, more! Touch it really hard and rub it.”
