Chapter 1

Vows Made

Life is demanded and restrained.

Power is given, but not without sacrifice.

The sacraments absolve you of your dirty sins,

and the blood stains on your soul.

The price?Your eternal soul and obedience.

Holy orders, they tarnished and broke.

Devastation and evil they created and served.

The shadows disguise their deeds from the prying light.

I was chained and left to rot.

Forced to endure the sins of my forebears on my pained and weary soul.

Punishment given for sins not committed.

Until they took more than they ever gave.

From confined darkness, I will rise.

A dark specter in the night.

The devil, my constant companion, whispering sweet nothings in my ears.

New vows I have made.

Ones that will rain down chaos and hellfire.

Their society I will burn, until not even the embers of ashes remain.

I am the lost sheep, returned to the flock.

The shepherd and his followers will perish at my hands.

Their sins fuel my wrath. Their blood will cool the fires that live within my veins.

Don’t pray for me.

I don’t want to be absolved or forgiven.

Chapter 2

Prologue

Theworldwastooquiet around me. The air seemed to hold its very breath with desperation, as darkness descends on yet another day in a world that has lost all of its luster and vibrant humanity. I move silently like a specter through the space once inhabited by cars, airplanes, and vast populations of people. Noise, all the noise seems to have vanished, along with hope it seems.

Gone.All of it is now limited to only those who see themselves as part of the hierarchy. Through the gloomy dark night air, my eyes find the rows of houses that are now empty and abandoned, awaiting demolition while their former inhabitants live in deplorable conditions, squeezed together like mice in a cage, just waiting to die.

Death is a mercy in this new world, one not readily given. If they can continue to take all you have until your last breath is spent, they will. It’s in their nature: those who have,take,and those who don’t,suffer.
