On the edge of the world, stood a small temple which houses a number of orphan children.
It was a branch temple of Gaia, which was once proud itself as the biggest temple in the continent but fall the hardest after the war against King of Chaos.
Away from the main temple, and the decline of the temple itself, the branch temple must sustain itself with almost no assistance from the main temple.
The saving grace was that one of the main temple of Temple of Light which located near them willing to lend them assistance. Although it was not a pure kindness.
Every year during baptism, children who have the talent to become a priest or priestess will receive an invitation to join the Temple of Light.
To recover from the long war against King of Chaos, all the temples need all the human resources they could get.
Considering the state of the branch temple, it would be hard to raise a decent priest anyway, and since the condition was better in Temple of Light most children will accept the invitation.
Except for one child....
