33 Fear of Death

As he grew older and closer to death, Ahenaten became increasingly fearful. He feared the feeling of growing weak and knew that death was creeping closer and closer. Recalling his glorious life, he did not want it to end just yet.

Ahenaten remembered the burly man he had encountered when he was young, the archangel Faross that had held his hand and told him he would one day become a king of mankind. He was the messenger of the gods that had given him his divine sword and godly powers, and the man who had bestowed him knowledge of the gods. Ahenaten wanted to meet the angel again. Even if he had to die, he wanted to go to the Divine Kingdom and become an immortal being like that angel!

He began commissioning many temples dedicated to the Goddess of light Maria. He became a pious believer, spending a large amount of time praying in front of the statue of Maria every day.
