On the way to Kielstadt, along with Balbo, Bastien, Prince Gutard, and his men, Alexa's mind wandered to the terrible secret she had discovered through the diaries of Princess Odila, mother of Duke Konrad.
Otten von Donnersmarck, Kielstadt's sovereign before Gutard, had fought the paganism that existed in those lands with fervor. He greatly hoped to transform the kingdom into a place free from beliefs other than Christianity.
To this end, he persecuted everyone who showed to think differently from him, or believed in anything other than what the Holy See said was right.
More than that, he had the dream of erecting a beautiful cathedral on the ruins of the ancient Roman city that gave rise to Kielstadt. Prince Otten wanted to completely bury the ancient temple to the pagan gods.
But Kielstadt, despite having a strategic port in his capital, didn't have enough resources for such extravagance.
