The Godly War

The Conflict

Prelude

The Kerei arrived on Inerth on the 21^st of Fyram, 2137 EoS, wary of their new surroundings. As they made a home, the Kerei met the natives of the land, the Aplia, who were friendly and offered a place to stay. Seeing that they were welcomed, the Kerei began to build new structures and plant farms to help feed the Aplia for their hospitality. With the Kerei having advanced technology, they were quickly able create sustainable farms and tall skyscrapers. The Aplia were nervous of such structures and pulled away. Despite this, the Kerei offered them food and shelter instead of living in harsh conditions with unpredictable weather. The Aplia declined their offer.   As the Kerei continued to spread out, searching for new land and what it had to offered, they came across the pilgrims. Most of the Kerei seemed human, but their attire was otherworldly, with metal armor able to deflect arrows and spears and weapons unlike anything humanity could create. This disturbed the pilgrims, who began to view the Kerei as "demons" started to view the Kerei as "demons", and it wasn't long before the pilgrims saw the Kerei communities filled with sentient beings that took the shape and form of demons. The church agreed with the pilgrims that the Kerei were evil and attempting to corrupt God's world. With a swift decree, the church allowed the pilgrims to raise an army to fight back against the "demons" threatening everything they held dear.
