As soon as he heard the man's quick response, Malachi breathed out a sigh. No, this was what he should have expected. He had not even left the docks yet, it was no surprise that the very first person he turned to was not a resident of Whitby.

"I suppose I do now," though he did not sound all that pleased with it. Surely he would find, soon enough, what there was to love about Whitby; there was a reason why he had been called here, after all, and he had only to find it. He just had to find the church first.
Clearing his throat, Malachi tried something else instead. "You wouldn't happen to know where I might find the church?"
