Silas was only fourteen when he lost his parents to the brutal orc bandit raids. For years, he worked in the field just to provide for himself and his sister, Ruth. Life was going smooth and there was hope for the future, and then the raiders came back. They tried to run like other villagers, but they were hunted down like animals by the raiders. Silas fought with all his might but was fatally injured. Half-dead, he was forced to watch the orc butcher his sister while she screamed his name for help. Pain, grief and anger overwhelmed him. Why is the world so cruel to me? I know bad things happen, but why always me? Why did they have to Kill Ruth? She's only 12 for God’s sake! {What if I give you the power to fight back?} I will make them run like they made me! I will butcher their children and women like they did to mine! I won't stop until every single one of them are dead! {What if I tell you the earth and the heavens are responsible for your misfortune?} Even if the earth gathers and the heaven descends; I will fight! {Welcome to the fold, Sin of Wrath... Be wary of every one, especially other members of the 7 deadly sins... The battle for succession amongst the seven princes of hell is unforgiving and ruthless!} ------ So I decided to ignore my health and attempt to write all three books covering the sins of pride, lust and wrath. I may burn out, or run mad midway, or succeed. So yeah, I'll take the chance. Like I said in the other books, I haven't created a discord community before, so it may take me a while to set one up. Be patient with me, okay? Wish me luck and thank you for your support!
