A shepherd boy on a Northumbrian hillside looked up one night and saw the heavens open, and angels carrying a soul of fire into the light. The next morning he learns that Bishop Aidan died in that very hour, and from that moment the boy called Cuthbert gives his whole life to the God who took Aidan home. This is the story of the boy who became a monk at Melrose became the hermit who sailed to the demon-haunted rock of the Inner Farne to be alone with God. Dragged twice from his solitude to serve, he dies a bishop on his island of stones, arms stretched toward heaven. But the story doesn't end in the grave: eleven years later his coffin is opened, and his body is found incorrupt, and for eight hundred and fifty years, through Viking raids and the long medieval centuries, the body of Cuthbert does not decay. And then one day King Henry's men climb to his shrine with a sledgehammer... Music used: "Across The Fields Of Gold" Yagull Music - Sasha Branislav Markovic, Mayu Saeki
