章節 62: In The Flames Of The Lord

After some discussion, the order I would visit the churches in was decided. Ishnagh was the first, his church a large black tower with a flaming torch at its peak. He chose the best place out of all the churches, in the safest district.

I greeted the priests in crimson robes.

"Greetings, servants of Ishnagh,"

"Welcome, lord! Please follow us to the inner sanctum!" They were in a hurry and practically pulled me through the church's interior.

I did as instructed and a flame rose from with the bowl and flowed onto my body, covering me in a burning cocoon of flames.

I blinked and the world around me changed.
