How nun and none power the wordplay
Start with the sound rather than the scenery. Several clues make nun echo none, as in the opening riddle about a number that vanished, the question about zero in a ledger, and the line about being second to nothing. The answer is a nun because the wording points to a religious woman while the sound points to absence. That same double meaning turns an empty count into a person who spends the day in prayer and work.
After that core joke, the pool shifts into a practical monastic vocabulary. Expect answers for clothing such as a veil, wimple, coif, and scapular; community places such as an abbey, convent, priory, and cloister; and scheduled practices such as matins, lauds, vespers, and compline. Other clues describe manuscripts, church architecture, vows, and devotional objects.
