Murdoch (Chapter)

The Eleventh chapter of Sins Venials follows Murdoch's encounters with Craving (Golem) and Desire (Golem).

Plot Summary
The Chapter starts with Craving (Golem) and Desire (Golem) at the door of Murdoch's house. He is confused about how they survived. They try to get Murdoch to do what they want, but he resists. They finnaly get him by pretending they are his child and wife. If he still refuses, they will claim he caused the disfiguring injuries they hold. He finally gives in.

What they want is to live. The other Golems want to get revenge on the Sins but as far as these two are concerned, the Sins gave them life, which they want to retain. Murdoch builds them new, un-disfigured bodies.

But, they still remain, just in case they need maintenance. Gluttony bites her own fingers off. Murdoch fixes that up.

Next Lust appears at Murdoch's back door. He tells her his situation, and while initially Lust wants to kill them, Murdoch doesn't let her. Lust tries to work out a plan, but Murdoch doesn't want her in the lab. Lust reveals she knows Murdoch took some of the Sins' power. Eventually Lust is allowed in.

There she finds Slander, a Vice Lust has been supporting to be in the world. It is then revealed that Murdoch is the son of the Necromancer that helped Lust during Aceena's story. Gluttony and Envy (the Golems) come in and begin an argument.

The Golems leave Murdoch, who reveals he cares. They didn't really leave, they did it to prove he cares.
