In a land that was constantly in war, an evil dark sage named Chalros waged war against the kingdoms of this land. When it seemed like Chalros would prevail, a Master of Light emerged to fight him. The Master of Light defeated Chalros in the final battle of the war and brought peace to the land, but he disappeared. Years later another war has been started. A young general named Rachen must lead his troops into battle against the growing darkness. He must combat the evil just like The Master of Light did before him.

 "Rain in the Desert"

The desert was dry and hot.
We came here because we were led to, but there seemed to be nothing here but sand.
Many of us were beginning to give up on this place.
Day after day, more people left, and more and more lost hope.
Then one day something strange happened. It started to rain.
The rain poured down, and as it did, life instantly appeared.
When the rain stopped, the desert had green grass and beautiful plants everywhere.
"For those of you who never lost hope here is your reward. The desert has changed.
The same thing will happen to the world when the rain of my glory comes," a voice said.

 The Light

I stood in between to armies. They were ready to go into battle. They were both under the same flag. They were brother against brother. I was afraid. I was in the middle of it.
Two huge armies going against each other were about to fight and I would be in between it.
The soldiers drew their swords and charged. Suddenly a shining light came down form the sky. As it came down everything around it began to glow gold.
A voice could be heard on the wind. "Do not continue," it said.
The two armies stopped. They suddenly had no aggression against one another.
The voice then spoke to me. " Remember this," it said to me.
"Even if it seems you are in the middle of a huge battle. Even if it seems like everything around you is lost, I will always be there.
I will never abandon you."

 Open Eyes

I stood before a door. The door was made of gold and the hinges and handle was silver. I did not know what was on the other side. I was afraid to see. I was about to turn back and run, but something in me urged me to go. It urged me to reach out and touch the silver handle. "Fine," I said, "I'll only touch it though." I reached out and felt it. Then suddenly I grasped the handle and turned it and the door opened. I walked through.

As I walked though I felt something. It was as if someone was covering my eyes with their hands. I couldn't see. "The realm you are entering into is too much for your sight," A voice spoke out, "You were able to enter, but you cannot see. You can feel it, but you cannot see it."

Then I could see. I saw things I cannot even describe. Then I heard the voice say, " I will reveal things to you that many are not ready to see. I will let you see. I have changed your eyes to see my glory. Now go and make others ready to see. Just as I have done for you."

 The Crossed Sword

I stood there watching thousands of hideous creatures marching towards me. All of them wore black and dark red armor. All I had was a bible in one hand and a sword shaped as the cross. I didn't think it was enough but a voice in my heart said it was more than enough. My enemies had something of mine and I wanted it back. My spirit had fallen into darkness and now I was going to get it back. As they came closer I began to fear. "Do not fear the dark" A voice said to me "For when light shines on the dark the dark flees. And I am the light. No fear for I am always with you." Then I stood before my enemies and showed no fear. I lifted my sword and bible into the air. Then both began to glow. Before I could breath a shining light bombarded my enemies.
I walked on a battlefield with white feathers raining down. I looked into the sky and saw an eagle flying above. I could not see anything. Had I fought for nothing? Then a voice said to me "You won back your spirit when you trusted in my word and in me."

 The Ringing of Horns

There on a flat plain was two armies assembling. One was of the dark and one was of the light.

In the army of the dark there were creatures of the devil. They were led by the devil himself. There flag represented sin. But as things always are, sin can be overcome.In the army of light there were angels with golden wings of glory. In the front lines was Gabriel and they were led by Jesus Christ. They knew they could not lose so they did not worry. Their flag represented the cross.

The battle was about to begin. The creatures of evil mounted on black wolves. The angels of God mounted on mighty lions, but Jesus mounted on a donkey. The army of evil shouted curses out. They were cancelled out by the worship of the angels.

The battle was moments away. Then in an instant the angels swept down on the evil creatures. Saten the cowardly fled before he even used his whip.

After the victory Gabriel led the angels in a song. The whole battle field was then filled with the ringing of horns!
