Editing Adam Crissen (section)

=Background=
Adam is just another of the local villagers, something of a feckless daydreamer and a constant source of worry for his mother(Hilda) and aggravation for his father(Bernard). He's developed a slight fascination with Ericka, she is by far the most enthusiastic and interesting woman in the village, and has taken to apprenticing himself with the local grave digger/warden (Old Hal) as a means to spend more time around the church. Apprenticeship in this case largely means helping dig graves and hanging about the graveyard and church looking like he might be doing something useful. Hal doesn't say much and barely notices the young man, his father is happy since this means Adam is now someone else's problem. And Adam, well Adam's lazy but knows he can only get away with so much. Daydreaming over a spade or listening to Ericka waxing lyrical about matters theological and militant suit him just fine.
