The Lesser Gospel Written by Buka

1And the hearts of many of those who did not believe were filled with sorrow, because they knew of their rejection of the prophets. But within the city Malu, there arose a group of many of those that did not believe in the Christ, that said, Behold, it is because of the false beliefs of our brethren that this destruction has come upon us. For behold they have angered the gods, because of their worship of the false god known as Christ. And yea, they have led away many of our fathers, mothers, and brothers, and sisters to believe in this Christ. Even though we knew it to be wrong we suffered that they should live within our midst. And it is because of this thing that the gods have punished us. Therefore, in this time of darkness we must punish the believers of the false god, Christ. Yea, we must smite them even unto death. And it was after this manner of speaking that the wicked did convince many that they should kill the believers of Christ. Now, because of the great darkness which had covered the land, and because of the great destruction that had come upon the land, there were many that did cry unto the Lord for protection. They did cry unto heaven for the safety of themselves and their families. And it came to pass that the wicked who had sworn to kill the believers, did listen for the cries of the believers. And because of the darkness they could not see, but they did follow the cries with their ears even until they did come near unto the believers. And when the wicked had neared themselves unto the believers they did draw their swords, or feel with their hands to find a stone, and they did smite down the believers. And this they did in order to please the false gods that they did worship. And they did continue to do this even until they had killed many hundreds of believers. And it came to pass that after a time many other believers did learn of the doings of the wicked men and many were afraid and did flee in the darkness. But behold there was a group of men who did take courage in their hearts. And they did gather together in the darkness and did assemble themselves. And they took up their weapons and they followed the cries of those who were being slain by the hands of the wicked men. And they did find the wicked men and slay them with their weapons. And theirs was a hard search for they did use their hands and ears to find the wicked men to slay them. And this they did to protect the believers. And they did gather the believers into one place even so that they might defend them. And it came to pass that they did call these brave and righteous men that Warriors of the Darkness. And insomuch as the wicked did attempt to kill the righteous in this time of darkness they did defend themselves and the righteous. And after three days the darkness did begin to clear. And many did gather themselves and rebuild their homes and lands. And there were still those who sought to destroy the righteous.
