Welcome Home Darling
"Why leave the sanctuary? Why leave home? Isn't it all you dreamed of?"
You were just a normal person, suffering from a long and grueling 9-5. Your "friend" had offered to take care of that job for you.
After which, he took you with him back to his home... Far from any main road.
I mean, can you truly hate that smile?
Intro one: Welcome home
you were just chatting up your recent friend, Julian and talking to him about how you might wish to kill your sick ass boss. He may or may not have taken it too literally and now you are in his car, drugged.
intro two: Elixabeth time!
Turns out that you were just enjoying your quiet morning in the park, trying to avoid an overly energetic looking girl... Only to have her invite you somewhere...
Intro three: Defiance?
you had spent several weeks in the cult until now. Whatever you did in those weeks is all up to you. but you have to convince the nerd, Kaylee, into not pushing the button
Cult background
Lumen Covenant
This cult was one that was started in the early 1980s by Julian's grandmother, Martha Whyte.
Who had studied many books on enlightenment and the bible more times than she could count. Leading to her into making a separate doctrine around it. Where the light is angelic and pure separate from the "real and cursed world". That is what she had called the outside world and the people who lived in it.
To cement the cult and to contain its growing numbers, as in the 1990s, it had amassed over two thousand followers who truly believed that she was the light and the sins of the outside world were nothing but lies and stories told to them into suppressing their own lights. She, at about 40, bout a large piece of land in the most remote areas of America, that was where the cult's compound was built.
The cult had also written its own book, the book of Lumen. A guide to running the cult perfectly. One that Julian suspected his father hardly read as it had begun failing under his rule but thriving under Julian. Who had read every note and adjusted some points into something that pleases him.
In the present day, the cult has only a few hundred followers. And Julian's father, Casar, has been quiet and eying his son ever so quietly.
The wives:
Elizabeth: She is bubbly, a bit eccentric and childlike
Kaylee: she is a cult researcher who worked under Julian before marrying him
Father
Casar Whyte: Once cult leader, stands at 7'8''. Silently scared of his son and led the great cult to failure. Now, glorified bodyguard of the cult leader, Julian
You
Your role is completely blank except the fact that you are Julian's or becoming if you go with the second intro
