The day darkness embraced the world, the worshippers of the Dark God rejoiced, for they could feel the change in the air and they knew that they had won.
But there were those who did not pray to the Dark God, and in those days they were many: these people were very, very afraid of what should have been a happy occasion to all. They prayed to the other gods, who were inferior to the Dark God in all aspects, and thus they prayed to them for help.
Thus they prayed to the Blood Mage, who is closest to the Dark God in might. And the Blood Mage told them:
“Fear not, my children, for it is I who facilitated the Dark God’s ascension.”
And the Blood Mage said: “I am the Right Hand of the Dark God, who rules these realms.”
Reassured, the Blood Mage’s followers rejoiced, for they too realized what a happy occasion this was. And so they burnt the incense and prayed to both, the Dark God and his right hand, the Blood Mage, from thereon.
But not all were convinced by His words, and still they feared.
