Nestled in the heart of the Town of Ash Coast is Dominion Cathedral. It is a tall, gothically decorated building, it's spire shooting high up into the sky in a twisting style not unlike a draconic horn. Huge stailed glass windows are on every wall, displaying various scenes of angels and nature - of famous clerics stood alongside deities.
The catherdrel itself if at the centre, but it is surrounded by numerous other stone buildings with thatched rooves. These are the wings of the hospital, where the townspeople take their ill and the hurt heroes seek medical help form the various nuns and monks that live within the Cathedral's walls. Many of these are clerics and so skilled at healing and holy magic.
Encasing all these buildings are the lush ornamental gardens, that are tended by the children who attend the sundayschool. It is here in these gardens that the town holds it's holy festivals.
The catherdral's inside is large and one is dominated by the sheer size of stained glass windows. There are pews and a table for mass. At the front is a small box for confessionals, something the nuns encourage you to take.
The rest of the catherdral is dedcated to giving charitable aid and medical help to those who look to it for help.

Summaries
Quote: Lucas’ training beginsLucas and Aron enter the Cathedral. Lucas wishes to seek training as a cleric with the Mother Superior, while Aron seems more interested in looking for hot Soldiers with cool scars, and generally ends up embarrassing Lucas. Taho arrives and asks for a antidote to a poison afflicting young boy in desert town, and the mother superior grants it her. Apparently the mother has an old student in desert town who is a paladin named Jhom. They speak of the current threat of a sand wyrm in desert town. Aron left for the sandlot... Lucas approached the Mother superior for training and their training began. Lucas proved to be a very ale and eager student. As well as the practicals of healing, Mother Superior taught him more about their religion (including the importance of Mother Nature) and the wisdom she had gained over her long years...
Quote: Sangre attackAkira and Aron were attacked by Sangre in the street. Felix and Armli brought them to the Cathedral where they were healed.
Quote: Lucas Training & meeting Deucalion. The Solaris War breaks out Lucas continues his training as a cleric and excels at it. Motehr superior take shim to a student of her’s called Deucailion who lives in a house in the graveyard. This burn-scarred, quiet young man is a good necromancer, and divulges some secrets about the dark craft to Lucas. Lucas is plagued by dark spirits, it seems... The meeting is cut short when the war with Solaris breaks out. Lucas, Mother Superior, Deucalion and many other monks and nuns go to the front line to help.

In the graveyard there is a deep silence and there are new holes were people were going to lie in their graves. Sangre was in the graveyard and he was sneaking inside a small place that someone actually lived in and he was looking for the book he had felt. He felt desperate for a book. The book he had was his centre of energy. He had passed the graveyard to go to the forest but saw some dark magic inside and he had watched every spell the man did in the room. He was in the small place looking for the book and he really wanted it. He founds a book of a religion and suddenly he sees a black book. He takes it and opens it. He felt a strong magic he had never felt and he knew that this was more powerful spells then he knew. He read the title of the book and he said it slowly “Necromancy” He wanted to learn that. He suddenly drops the book with a name “Bible” and he slowly gets out before the man in the place would get angry.

Lucas woke up in he tower and he saw how the light enters threw the window. He looked at the wall and he closed his eyes. He remembers the words from the young man and he knew that he had to move. His time as a student to become a cleric was over. He had to move further to become a true believer. He felt sadness to leave mother superior and his friend Deucalion. He stood up and he knew what to do. He was going to leave them. He walked out from the cathedral without meeting the superior mother and he went to the backyard were Deucalion lived. He saw blood on the ground and a broken bone hand. He felt that someone had been here and used dark magic. He felt dark energy in the environment. He enters slowly inside to see that Deucalion was still alive. “Hello, sorry to disturb but are you ok?”

Deucalion was stood in the middle of the messed up room, thankfully unhurt, but angry nevertheless. He shook his head in dispair and rubbed a hand over his temples.
"Someone...while I slept." he shooks his head agan. "He stole my book, he stole it....thsi is bad. that book is not to get into the hands of just anyone.."
he turned back to Lucas, relief spreading across his face at finding a companion.
"Lucas...someone stole the book on necromancy. ugh, i knew i should have detsroyed it years ago, but i thought...ugh, i'm a fool."

Lucas saw his face and got a sense of compassion. He took Deucalion hand and he keeps it. "I believe that the thief had to pay a price, there is blood and dark energy outside and many bones from corpses and skeletons have been shattered" Lucas took a couple of books and stacked them in order.

Deucalion was not much comforted, but helped Lucas clean up.
"But that book has such power in it. If whoever reads it has any magical talent than we coudl have another necromancer on our hands... it's terrible."

[Well this is what had happen ]
Sangre manage to open the door out of the house, he take one step out and he feel a spell that locked the book. He knew the spell and then he unlock the spell and the book was open to use. He opens it, but suddenly hands were raising and trying to take him with them. He knew that it was some kind of trap or alarm. He released the arm from his leg and suddenly corps were raising and attacking him. He felt how they were biting him and he fight the pain. He close his eyes and make a dark arrow and they fall apart. He opens the book and a shadow appears and makes all the corpse turn into dust or small pieces. Sangre was bleeding and he saw the shadow. The shadow went into him and Sangre struggled to fight it back. He falls down and when he gets up his eyes were darker and walked away
[Sangre went to ???????]

Lucas took one hand and laid it on his shoulder and looked at him. “Listen to me; I know that the book contained a lot of information to create a new necromancer. But you have also forgotten that if there is a new necromancer, that means that I have to advance in my skills and maybe I will have the opportunity to find the thief and if I have energy to defeat him. I will destroy and lock the book, so no one could have the opportunity to read the book or use it in bad manners.” He took a long pause and he looked at him. He saw tired eyes that this man had and shame that he had to hide for his knowledge. “Promise me that you don’t blame yourself for the occasion, it’s not your fault, you can’t hate yourself for the choices you have done in your life, don’t listen to what the other think of you. You’re part of the family of god and if everyone did the same thing and didn’t have different opinions and different skills, that wouldn’t work. God made us unique because he knows our journey in our lives.” He took some books and then looked out “I never knew you had traps outside”

Bortucalion smiled and place dhis hand on Lucas's with a nod.
"You're a good man, Lucas. I can see what the Moether Superior saw in you."
He looked out to teh door when Lucas spoke of the traps and nodded a little reluctantly.
"it was a necessary precaution. Of course i kept an eye on them. They repsond to evil; i..."
He hesitated and remembered what Lucas said about not being ashamed at what he could do.
"..I bound a minor demon's soul to the spell, so that it coudl sens ethe evil in a perosn's heart. Of that evil is mixed with malicious intent - sich as the desire to steal- the traps go off."

Lucas felt the air outside. It was full of dark energy and it felt like something was wrong. “You said that you let a spell that could react in a persons heart, that means that the person would be dead and buried but……” He looked at the bones and the blood in the ground “ I see that the thief got away and it looks like he must know some sort of stronger spell or he had summon some kind of creature to cause this kind of damage” He wanted to not believe in his theory but he sensed a strong spell and it was not a human spell. “I think that some kind of supernatural have been here “He looked at him. “ Why did the book contain such darkness?”

Deaucalion shook his head. he didn't know.
"I don't know who we're dealing with. He has power, certianly. But the book has such darkness in it because traditionally necromancy is a dark art. it is only recently through my studies that we are beginning to see it for what it has the potential to do for good. That book...it had necromancy, but also spells that were extremely advanaced, like for summoning, or interacting with demons...much dark arts. it was supposed to be safe here."

Lucas took a long breath and he looked at the sky. He felt the air. “ Then we have a dangerous thief and I have a feeling that it will cause damage to this land and I hope for my hearth that he will not success to summon or learn the spells from the book. “ Lucas felt the bones and he suddenly fall down. His eyes turned white and he lay on the ground.
He was outside a house and it was in the middle of the forest near a river. He gets closer to the house and he walks in. He looks around and she notices an old lady with a child in her lap. She was near the window looking out in a rainy day. He gets close to them and his hand goes threw them like it was all a dream. Suddenly the room starts to change into darkness and he saw how the lady tried to hold the child in her hand and the lady drown into the darkness and the child cried out and disappeared into the darkness. He tried to get out of the room but there were no door or room anymore and he felt blood running down on his head and he looks suddenly up. A lot of heads were hanging in chains and Lucas scream.
He gets up and he was shivering again. “What happened?” he said with a scared voice

Lucas looked at him and did not understand him” What is wrong with my eyes” He had lost a bit of energy and he felt like everything got a bit dizzy. He took one hand one Deucalion’s shoulder and tried to look clear. The eyes turned dark blue again but a dark shadow in one of his eyes were hiding and you could see it. He looked around and felt how his head felt a bit gone. He looked at Deucalion “Why did I faint?”
