FK Fanfic: "Pro Terra Sancta"

I mentioned that the retrospective was over, so yes, indeed, this is a new one!  The idea crept up as I was getting ready for church on Good Friday; I wrote it that night.  This is the second-to-shortest FK piece I have ever posted, so perhaps [livejournal.com profile] much_madness will consider it another reply to her nudge for "ficlets."
