The holy war became a relentless carnage that spanned centuries. The entire interior of the stone shrine was filled with stories of the war—the people they had lost, the betrayals, the bravery, the lost ideals, and the countless fallen civilizations.
The chosen warrior of the Sun God had at last prevailed over all of them. Millions of corpses littered the ground when it finally ended. There was a whole poem-like inscription in their language, depicting the warrior's internal conflict after committing such a gruesome act. Just when he was sick and tired of it all, the Sun God came to him again—not to acknowledge the millions who had died, but to order him to force the prisoners to accept the faith. And if they refused.. kill them all.
