Chapter Text
Somewhere in the cold land of Snezhnaya, deep inside a scientist lab,
A group of shady yet-strangely-well-dressed people were stealing inventions scattered across the room...
-Thank the almighty Lord that breaking in here was unusually easy. -One of them said, looking confused and slightly afraid. -Though I must confess, I expected the security here to be way better. Especially considering that this is the "workplace" of one of the Cryo Archon's Harbringers. -They paused for a few seconds afterwards, stopping their "work" as they did so, their eyes soon widening considerably. -...Could it be that he let us steal...?
-Hush, child! Have you no faith at all?! Fate itself must be on our side, helping us fulfill our plans! -Another person interrupted, his self-righteous voice echoing through the place. -And our plan fulfil we would, as is our divine duty to our Lord! We, as the pure ones, must save him from being corrupted by the filthy heathens and the fake disciples, lest the world itself will get destroyed! -He continued in all seriousness, soon going into a full blown lecture of what exactly will happen if their Lord turns evil and how it's their duty to prevent this from happening. -...The Lord gives us life and he is also the one who can take it! It is our duty, as his true believers, to make sure that he stays kind and merciful!
-I-I understand, Elder. I have failed as a discipline for questioning my faith in the Lord. -The first person, who was now quite shaken, sorrowfully said. -I would gladly accept any punishment you deem necessary, in order to repent for this grave sin.
-I will make sure that you do, brother, as a show of piety for our Lord. -Said "Elder" promised, before walking towards the two youngest people in the room. -Caleb, Sophia, the time is upon us! Soon, a chance to achieve our goals should present itself! Are you prepared to take on your sworn duty when the time comes?
There was some silence, before the youngsters,
Who were still teenagers, half bowed before the older man.
-Yes, Elder! For the sake of our Lord, we will do it without fail! -Caleb promised in all sincerity.
-We will do our best! For the glory of the Lord! -Sophia added, with the same amount of sincerity.
...
Unbeknownst to them both and the other members of their "Faith",
A widely grinning person was watching them all from the shadows...
-So those are our little "thieves". Looks like quite an interesting and highly amusing bunch. They would surely be very fun to watch~ -The red eyed male said in rising interest, which soon turned to dark amusement. -I will be eagerly waiting for the results of your "findings", my little doves~
