There were traditions in the Continent of Reglesia, that once a newborn was given birth, the baby must be blessed by the holy water in order for the cleansing if the impurities within the soul and body.
The church said that humans in the times of their toddler age are the most vulnerable in the cycle of life, and is prone to be possessed by the demons.
Those children who were able to go past their toddler age without baptism were either abandoned or lynched by a mob
269 AD Earl George's manor
"There's a blizzard outside!! and you're telling us and our 12 day old son to go outside to be baptised by the church?!?!"
Yelled a woman in a purple velvet dress, her her blonde hair flows down to her hips as she ran after her husband who was in the living and staring at the fireplace, as she carried an infant in her arms.
Our child's just been born and he expects our little Clark to go outside in that harsh weather?
What hell is he thinking?
Although he is an obstinate man especially when it comes into his beliefs and principles
"That's right woman! I've already made the servants prepare for the carriage"
"Can't that just wait!! at least when winter is finished?""little Clark's still in his early toddler age, there's still plenty of chances to come!"
"NO! the longer our son stray from the Baptism the more he is likely to be possessed!"
"bu-but"
"No buts!! this my house!! and my rules!!"
"you hear me woman!!?!"
"yes"
The woman in the velvet dress looked down tears rolled down her cheeks
and only see her cute baby, despite all that yelling, was still asleep and pondered what a weird baby Clark is, but nonetheless loves him as a mother would.
she was left with no choice but to obey her husband.
Seeing the sad look on his beautiful wife holding her son, made George's heart calmed down and a wave of guilt approached his mind.
"Sorry for my sudden outrage, Lena"
and kissed Lena's cheeks.
"Me too, good thing our little bundle of joy, didn't woke up"
"heheheehe our son sure is one lazy cutie"
Said as he pokes the infant's cheeks but was slapped away by Lena's angry stare.
Suddenly the door in the living room opened and a middle age man in a butler suit came in.
"My lord, the preparation for the carriage is done"
And said respectfully.
