The Cross and the Roses

Brother Mark is sent as a member of a secret fraternity with an important mission to another secret fraternity. He travels through various regions and being tired comes to a mountain. When he has climbed the mountain he sees a monastery in a nearby valley. This monastery is the dwelling place of another fraternity to which he has been sent. Above the gate of the monastery he sees something special. The cross entwined with roses. And he speaks meaningful words that can only be understood by those who know how often that watchword has been spoken in the secret fraternities.
