Fics like signs and wonders

As the years go by and summers cool and winters become harsher, the name Ryland Grace is lifted up in churches, mosques, shrines, temples, synagogues, and all kinds of congregations around the world, big or small. Prayers for safety, for wisdom, for good health. His likeness is depicted in all manner of iconography – graffiti, prayer cards, murals, statues – the evolution of a clever fox at his side spreading like wildfire, a token of cleverness and ingenuity. His name is in the lisping whisper of a young child saying prayers before bed and in the heart of those who never had much room for faith in anything else before. Ryland Grace, they say. You have traveled so far, but you still have so long to go and so much to do. Protect us. Save us. May you find both wisdom and discernment. We have faith in you. Remember us. Save us. Nearly twelve light years from Earth, Ryland Grace wakes up with a jolt on the Hail Mary to his own name echoing in his head.
