When he came home he was going to be wed to a fair lady who he meant was lady poverty. He started nursing the ill and helping others more,sometime around then he had a vision where Christ went to him and said: "Francis, Francis, go and repair My house which, as you can see, is falling into ruins" he believed that Christ meant the church he was in so he sold his horse and gave the Church's priest the money. His father was enraged and disowned him.

Francis devoted himself to a life of poverty and soon had many followers. The pope soon acknowledged them but St.Francis did not want to become a monastic order. One of the rules to follow St.Francis was that you could own no possessions expect for a scratchy robe.

Chapter.14. Fight of the Leaders

Ha you will never get the book Bartholomew chuckles. Yeah I think I will, cause it is behind you I said. All I need to do is trap you in a ball of air an stride past you. No you will never get me alive he said.You wish I said. Fine fight me said Bartholomew . I think I will, I said (have you noticed a speech pattern in this chapter). so I fired out a blast of fire and Bartholomew made some shadow weapons to block it then he shot out some shadow weapons at me so i had to duck under the large box of magic items and threw some charms at him which made him duck so he won't get cursed.
Then he staled for a minute so I shoot a big blob of water at him and froze it so he was a big block of ice so that he was frozen and I got the book but the pages on healing were ripped out so I took the book and the ice Bartholomew into the worm hole to ask things of him.
