The two most important things to happen to Cincturons in the last year are, firstly, that the entire country was conquered by foreign archmages/liberated from the power of Hell/suborned by a paladin queen, and secondly that someone murdered perfectly-respectable Maurici Savall and seduced/abducted/conspired with that angry girl Valeria.
That second one doesn't have much effect on Xavi's life though, because when the rumours of the first one reached the 'Hell' part, he thought about whether, and then he stopped coming in to church
