Maro and Anonymi 3665 settled near Susan and Anonymi 3662. Many others followed and settled near the holy sisters. Anonymi 3662 and Susan did not wish to cause scandal by living in such close proximity to men, so they endeavored to leave their tower and go further into the desert. See factoid page
Maro and Anonymi 3665 felt ashamed once they learned of Susan's plan to remove herself and Anonymi 3662 to the desert and offered to build them an enclosed monastery with a tower within the village, so that they could be isolated but remain close to the other holy men and women who travelled to be near her. Susan reluctantly agreed. See factoid page
