Purification (Part 1)

Winter was drawing to an end, and spring was approaching.

Spring was the season of life where all things were rejuvenated. The earth would be covered with green, where there would be flowers and verdure, mountains and rivers. Even the animals were completely reinvigorated after the long winter and began to reproduce. And once again, they were starting a new cycle of life.

But this spring was different.

It was very cold.

The cold was not only in the air but also in the hearts of the humans.

The calendar of the Main Plane was similar to Earth in that it divided a year into four seasons. That particular day with the shortest period of daylight of the year—the winter solstice—was made New Year's Day. This calendar was simple and crude. It was extremely convincing.
