Pages : 322
Book Description
Warning: This book contains graphic language and graphic violence. This story is about the journey that would cause a hero to fall into darkness. This is what we have been taught by the Books of the Three Laws and that which has been passed down through the millennia... In the time before time, the builders broke the world with fire from the heavens, and the land shattered and changed. Upheaval rocked the land as people died in droves. It was during this time that St. Michael was granted his vision of the changing world and he began the creation of the First Temple and His Holy Army, May He Always Defend Us, which set forth the path for the salvation of all mankind. It is said that the power of the Aio came to protect us from the dark, a Gift from The One. Some say that the Aio had always been with us, all around us, guiding us like the hand of The One himself. St. Michael created the Triads, two Seraphs led by a Cherubim, to protect us and defend us against the Darkness. The Triads would learn together, train together, and venture out into the world together to pass along the word and faith of The One. They alone would have the power bestowed upon them by the Gift of Aio to stand against the oncoming darkness. St. Michael sent them himself to defend us, to guide us, and to bring all of his children into the light. Unless. of course, it has all been a lie...
