Shrines to St. Michael.

"Mountains figure prominently at the mighty ganglia of the story of Christianity... As Jesus prays atop the holy mountain, the other world intersects with ours as the divine comes down to the human, as the eternal touches the temporal and mortal. And that other world is the ultimate reality, not this one. No wonder that St Michael, ‘Quis ut Deus,’ has his shrines on lofty peaks; no wonder the Celts worshipped on hills and mountains...

The spirit of the Archangel Michael permeates discussion of the world of the Celts—shrines such as Skellig Michael on precipitous mountain-tops in the cold and wet Celtic desert; early connections with the ancient Eastern world; guardianship of Tuscany, Provence, Normandy, and Cornwall; safe-keeping of wanderers and hermits; motifs of spear, sword, and stone; waging of the war in Heaven and the downfall of Lucifer; the communion of the Grail."

St. Michael: Early Anglo-Saxon Tradition, Raymond JS Grant

(1) Mont St. Michel, Normandy, France; (2) St. Michael’s Mount, Cornwall, England; (3) Castel Sant’Angelo, Rome, Italy; (4) Saint-Michel d’Aiguilhe, Le Puy-en-Velay, France; (5) Abbey of San Galgano, Siena; (6) Skellig Michael, County Kerry, Ireland; (7) Sacra di San Michele, Mount Pirchiriano, Turin, Italy; (8) St. Michael’s Tower, Glastonbury Tor, England

[Agatha Christie Meme from @reverdies' Sherlock Holmes.]

'Every fact that I know is in your possession. You can draw your own deductions from them.' (this is just such a Sherlock Holmes line— trapped with a murderer in an old mansion? Or a murder mystery gone wrong if modern, perhaps) ------------

"Forgive me, Mr Holmes," Thera raised a brow, not questioning his assertion - as she barely could, given the list vouchsafed to her apparently from memory and with only occasional glances toward the notebook in his hand, "but don't you find bare facts, without context, to be dry and incomplete?"

Fact - there was a corpse. Rather spectacularly displayed in the outdoor courtyard bordering the main part of the castle. Fact - he had been a gentleman in his 30s of no little means, a guest of the current resident family. Fact - there had been a disturbing amount of blood. And, fact - more curious, but in line with Holmes' predilection for noting the smallest detail - he wore no coat or tie, and his waistcoat was unbuttoned.

There were other details as well, likewise mentally filed, but for the moment they drifted without definite link.

"You've given me enough for question and speculation ... but deduction must wait until I've observed the body and the scene for myself."

#Reverdies #;Sherlock Holmes #Historical AU #//I was thinking maybe St Michael's Mount in Cornwall? If it's high tide they'll be stuck there unless they take a boat!
