Chapter 1 Terrifying Beginning.

" Glory be to the god's for giving us such a wonderful day" Within an auspicious church within the world, A man in a liturgical vestment[1] surrounded by an air of grace and tranquility stood calmly whilst gazing upwards towards the sky.

His eyes squinched lightly as he admired the beautiful scenery before his eyes.

The Sun shinning magnificently within the skies as it illuminated the land, no trace of gloom in sight.

He chuckled lightly with a grateful smile etched on his face before walking off down a florally decorated path.

The man in question was known as a priest and a high ranking one at that, unlike Earth who was governed by laws, rules and regulations.

This very priest lived in a completely different world, one similar to a fantasy world mostly found in novels but instead of the rules emmparted on the world by the members of each countries given legislative house, this world was mostly governed by one party which was the church who's only reason for existing was to uphold the tasks and thoughts of the god's.

The god's where the divine beings who lived above all else, the church saw them as the creators of all and those to come, magnificent beings of multiple wonder's no one could hope of challenging.

Within this world the words of the god's where law and no other has the power to go against their will, not even the kings and queens nor the noble's could disobey.

Within a world fiercely ruled and controlled by the god's, the church which served as their mediators were naturally given an unimaginable position within the world and those who where members had even more power and authority than most official's and nobles, the kind priest that walked through the garden had even more authority and power than most would think, being a head priest, he was granted immense respect and power than most would think.

" Your Reverence "

" Morning your Reverence"

" Good day father"

" Morning father" While walking towards the sanctuary, which was the most sacred place in the church, the Head Priest was greeted by several figures, whether church staff or workers, all who saw him showed utmost respect and awe at his holy splendor.

" May the Lord's of the world be with you" he politely replied to them all, his expression still calm and compassionate like that of a priest should be.

After a few short moments he finally arrived at his destination the churches sanctuary, he clasped his hands together before giving a respectable bow.

After completing the respective formalities, the Holy priest made his way towards the sacred altar [2].

He kneeled before it, caring not if his vestment met the floor or not.

The holy priest clasped both his palms before his chest while silently offering some respectful prayer's underneath his breath.

While the head priest offered his respectful prayer's, he was completely unaware as the clouds above the sanctuary quickly started churning like a pool, the once snow white clouds above the skies soon turned stormy black as they crackled with a deathly glow, streak's of terrifying lightning crackling through them like a beast waiting to strike.

Everyone within the church and the lands around saw the surging dark clouds that churned above the church, an invincible pressure enveloped all within a few miles radius, a bad omen rising within their hearts.

Their eyes where slowly suffused with terror and fear, the more they watched the growing stormy clouds the more their despair surged within them like a never stopping river!, Yet no matter what they did non of them could move an inch.

At that moment their bodies refused to listen to them as if an intangible force kept them in place forcing them to bear witness to what was about to come.

Though the skies were incredibly noisy and turbulent from the stormy clouds and crackling lightning, the lands below turned deathly silent similar to a graveyard...not even the cries of a child, The yelling of an adult nor the cries of an animal could be heard at the moment for non could speak or utter a words only being allowed to bear witness to what was about to come.

**Before the eye's of all within the church and the land's around, The clouds surged and surged and surged untill...**

**BOOM!!!!!!**

All the crackling lightning within the dark stormy clouds gathered into one horrifying bolt of lightning that struck without warning!.

Sadly, not even the sanctuary nor the priest who was cut unaware was spared by it's destructive might for even the entire church was obliterated by the devastating lightning bolt instantaneously.

Not even the workers nor the members screams could be heard for they were all obliterated without warning.

In place of the once magnificent and holy church was now a desolate land scorched beyond recognition yet within the area of the sanctuary where the head priest was formally at, One could make out a stunning yet ominous discovery.
