The Priestess

Intro

Inside the Tianshi Temple lies the holy priestess of the Southern Empire, Nu Shen.

No one knows what exactly happened to the priestess but after the chaotic ritual that sealed the demons back in the underworld, Nu Shen collapsed.

At first, they thought that Nu Shen perished but her shallow yet steady breathing tells otherwise. The faithful retainers tried everything they could do to awaken their master however, nothing worked. In order to protect her, they closed the temple and hid Nu Shen into the depths of Tianshi.

For a hundred years, there was no news of the priestess. The people of the outside world started to believe that Nu Shen had already died. The former glory of Nu Shen became nothing but a myth to the newer generation.

The once lively and bright Tianshi Temple was now hidden by the trees and grasses that had grown in its surrounding. Wild plants crawled their way up its walls and small animals sought shelter in the abandoned rooms. The holy relics and golden artifacts that adorned the temple were ransacked by thieves. Rumors also started to circulate about ghosts and creatures of the night nestling inside the temple. To the people of the Southern Empire, Tianshi became an unspeakable place of horror.

But the real horror was just in the corner, waiting for Nu Shen to wake up from her deep slumber.
