Aloysius had been in Church of the Apostolic Faith for as long as she could remember. She had joined the church as a troubled 15 year old and the nuns had helped her see the path of God.
Slowly she settled into the discipline and over the years grew in the ranks. Because of her devotion to God and to the church, she was made Mother Superior at a young age of 30. Now fifty, she had been in this role for a very long time.
But looking after the church had not been the only duties for the mother Superior of the Church of the Apostolic Faith.
The church harboured a secret that Aloysius was sworn in to protect, like the many others before her.
Aloysius woke up in the middle of the night with a sweat. This was probably the worst nightmare she had ever had in the fifty years she had been alive.
Unfortunately, even though she realised that it had been a dream, the feeling of dread still loomed over her.
"I need to check to be sure. It's been centuries, no reason for it to come back now."
She quickly changed into her habit and stepped outside her room. Through her office behind the Chappel, she opened the door that led to the tunnels. Walking through the tunnels she soon reached the crypts.
What she saw almost made her gasp in fear. Her worst nightmare had come true. The crypt had been opened.
