Ever since Sloth had come to the city Diligence had been having issues. Certain she was strong enough to face her opposing Sin, the Virtue quickly discovered that many factors had her feeling as though she were on unequal footing when it came dow to their dealings together. In fact, the past few days were something that Diligence would pay good money to re-do.
It wasn't as though she was oblivious to what had happened when Temperance attempted to use her closeness to Gluttony to reform him, and much as she tried to remain above it all the Virtue knew that the Archangels were starting to assume she was heading down that same path. She hoped that her words of assurance to Michael had him feeling more secure of her lacking desire to see the Sin again, however while her words felt strong her will was wavering.
There was an attraction to Sloth that she didn't want to deal with, the Virture aware that such things as love and sex were possible within the confines of a neatly managed life, though that didn't mean she wanted to experience them. However, when push came to shove Diligence was afraid - Sloth was making her consider and feel emotions she had rarely considered, and that gave her pause. So it was that she found herself in church, praying for guidance and strength as she continued on the path set before her.
"Dear Lord, give me the fortitude to fulfill my purpose, to ignore any and all distractions, and to help as best I can...please."
