They all get some food for breakfast. It could cheer them up. They definitley enoyed their food.

Vigor talks to Gray Pierce in private. He was super good in knowledge and intelligence.
He knows Gray wants to pursue the Dragon Court. Vigor tells of several points. Point 1
He tells that the history of Christianity had seen certain books removed from canon as others were deemed heretical. John was included in the standardized Bible due to apostle Thomas. John looked down upon Thomas due to different views. There was a fundamental schism between the gospels of Thomas and John. Both saw things differently. John sought to discredit Thomas, or more specifically, the followers of Thomas, who were numerous at that time. It goes back to the very beginning of the Bible, to Genesis, to the opening line. ‘Let there be light.’ Both John and Thomas identify Jesus with this primordial light, the light of creation. But from there, their interpretations widely diverge.

Point 2 had to be made.
“If I tell you even one of the things, you will pick up stones and throw them at me; and a fire will come out of the stones and burn you up” a phrase said by Jesus. A fire from stones that burns. Like what happened to the parishioners at the church.

Point 3 Thomas went on to evangelize in the East, all the way to India. He baptized thousands of people, built churches, spread the faith, and eventually died in India. But in that region, he was most famous for one act, one act of baptism: the three magi. There are things intertwined.
