Bright Haven is my flock and I am their Blessed Lamb.

Under the guidance of our Father, I lead our congregation for the glory of the Lord. Seeking salvation from the rot that has set in across the country, we cleanse those who sin against us in the red rains, offering them a chance at God's forgiveness.

We ask the Lord for mercy, but The Devil answers instead.

Once a member of the community, Lazarus was cast out to suffer among the damned long before I came to the compound. Wicked and cruel, he is now more sinner than saint but he wasn't always that way. Betrayed by those he loved, Lazarus is The Devil that Bright Haven created themselves, and his vengeance upon our community has been swift and merciless.

And now I am his captive.

He meant to kill me when he took me but now I'm not sure he wants me dead. Lazarus seeks instead to corrupt me piece by piece and though I know I am to remain pure, I am weak to the temptation of his touch. The longer he keeps me alive, the more I crave him like I crave air and the more I learn about the man we call our Father.

There's a sickness in Bright Haven.

Spoiled fruit in the orchard and a snake among the reeds.

We've been asking the Lord for mercy, but calling to The Devil may be the only way to save us all.
