The Church Council.

After the event that took place at Carvis village which was now know as The Land of Decay, the church in Minava which was the neighboring village, visited Carvis a few months later. They saw the destruction that was made, almost everything was destroyed, even the church wasn't exempted from the destruction.

Following their visit to Carvis, the church organized a council meeting to discuss matters of the Carvis.

The church council consist of twelve members. There was a Bishop, an Arch Bishop and ten priests who were highly regarded as the founders of the St. Vatican church.

The church was first built in Minava before it grew, spreading across neighboring villages preaching the gospel far and wide. The church grew both in numbers and spirit, although, not everyone believed.

" As we all saw, the church in Carvis didn't survive the survive the destruction and all priests who took care of the church their are missing" Bishop Solomon said drawing all their attention to the implications of the damages caused, "...in times like this the people are vulnerable and many could loose their faith in God.". " In times like this, the people need to stay strong in their faith and believe, encouragement and hope." Father Francis added, the all thought deeply and the situation at hand in silence as though they were meditating. After a few minutes, Arch Bishop Paul broke the silence saying " I think the best thing to do is to send a few pastor to assist in Carvis, to rebuild.".

The suggestion was good, but there's always a but. " But who amongst them would want to go to a town which is termed as the Land of Decay" said Philip, one of the priests, pointed out.

" We can't let the pastors go alone. certainly one amongst us would have to go with them, don't you think?" Father Steve suggested, the other priests who had been quite all this while nodded in agreement. " I've heard what we all think" the Bishop said " Let's choose someone who would be going with the pastors to Carvis. Any volunteers?". Father Luis instantly volunteered to go, " I would take with me men of strong faith, I would select eight men well built in their faith in Christ." he made his conditions clear and no one protested.

Without any waste of time, the men who were selected by Father Luis prepared to go into the Land of Decay.

With time, the elders of the church scattered, going far and wide to teach the gospel leaving behind the Bishop, Arch Bishop, Father Francis and Father Kim at the head quarters of St. Vatican at Minava. Father Luis decided to remain in Carvis with the pastors.
