Who they were
Saint Setni was a bishop of the 6th and 7th centuries. When Saint Elouan met him, he asked him to stay because night was falling; the bishop answered that his absence would worry his brothers and asked instead that the day be prolonged until he had rejoined them, and Elouan obtained this favour from heaven, which was considered a miracle.
