Interesting story, I really like the medieval inquisition like backgroung :twilightsmile: I'm looking forward to the next chapters!

When the speaking action is preceding the direct speech, there is a comma (,) not a colon (:). Also, the direct speech follows immediately after that, it doesn't start in a new paragraph. So, it should look like:
