The continent of alhiem consist 4 different powers. The holy empire of fos, the leading power that balance the power creed within the continent of alhiem.

Fos empire is religious country that make it's order and rules in favour of the gods. Because of people withing the empire believed in different gods there are 8 major religious groups that had great influence within the empire.

One of the example is the order thanatos that serve the god of death "Nekros". Nekros who also known as the king of souls and the guide of the dead, his followers have faith on him to guide them in the right path when they die.

Despite the seemingly good appearance of the church they were considered as a cult by other religions. The priest of thanatos don't have divine power to heal people, but they have dark power to collect souls of people, and other religions consider it as blasphemy so the conflict of thanatos and others is often seen.

One of the dark priest of thanatos, Dyn Noxi. He is one of rare cases of dark priest, he did not want to be one but he is selected by the god, Nekros.

Dyn sitting down in living room from the chapel "This is cursed. Why do I have to be one of the priest?".

All he remember is the day he is approached by something ominous. But that time he fell down to the ground and had nothing on him, he cursed everyone, he cursed even the gods, and that dark mist approach him... that is all he remember.

Dyn stand "Hah.. I should keep going now. If the god chosen me I should thank him" after being out of thought for a second a knock from the door get his attention.

"Sir Dyn the mass will start now" the voice of a servant from the other side of the door said.

Dyn then opens the door and see the servant girl bowing to him although he doesn't want the sight he just ignore it.

'Does being a dark priest give you much power?' he thought as he walk in the hallway. He then enter the altar and the people seems to stare at him for some reason, it make him uncomfortable.

Dyn then take a seat at the back of the head dark priest who is in front of the altar that started the mass.

"Thy god pity may be in you" the head dark priest said enchanted with magic so everyone can hear it.

"Oh thy god give us blessing and salvation that cannot be repaid"

"Oh the gift of thy god had blessed all of those who see him"

"Thy god give all of you a chance to once again give your faith to him"

"By thy presence of his persona"

'I don't know what the heck is going on!'
