APPRENTICE RYAN Chapter 5 - The Covenant

Apprentice Ryan felt weightless as he moved into the next room, a tingling sensation running up his spine and over his head as he saw Grandmaster Angus sitting on the end of a large, white bed. Grandmaster Angus instructed him to wash him, pointing to a bowl of blessed water and a ceremonial cloth beside it on the floor. Apprentice Ryan removed the older man's socks and shoes, washing his feet down on the ground, deferential towards his master. Grandmaster Angus could see the boy's fluidity, smiling as he realized the completion of the young man's transformation.
