The word of Sylvester's arrival at the Holy Land spread across the various peninsulas like wildfires. The Clergymen who had remained behind came to see him, each offering their reasons for not joining him. Some of them were Sylvester's loyalist Elders of the Council of Thirty-Two, and some were the developers of the new weapons in the weapons research division. Others were the main priests of the Gold Peninsula, which housed the Magna Sanctum temple.
Of course, there were still a few who had refused to join Sylvester's side due to their personal dislike towards him. Being that young and having surpassed them in every possible way was a taste not everyone could digest.
For them, Sylvester had no mercy. The Church needed a fresh start, and Sylvester wasn't going to do a half-hearted job.
