Mistress

" Lord, I will take away the sins of the world. " A priestess prayed to God to forgive the sins of man. She begged him to let her carry the others' sin for them. When her prayer was answered, she received stigmata, the symbol of her new power that God gave her, so she could draw demons out of Hell and punish them in His name. Her stigmata resembled the Seven Deadly Sins. Sinners called it God's curse and avoided her at all costs. Whenever she went, demons that hid among men couldn't help but reveal their true forms. These demons were ripped into pieces by her hands and sent back to the bottomless pit where they belonged. People called this method of revealing demons the Mistress phenomenon, which coined her name, the Mistress. Rumor has it that the Mistress was one of the girls who were forever marked from hot iron by the Black Order before they were saved by Remidia Kathedra. There was a heated debate among the leaders of Remidia over the treatment of these girls, but in the end, it was decided that the victims should not be punished for what was done unto them, and that there shouldn't be any more discussion or questions as to their marks, which were believed to symbolize Original Sin. The Mistress stopped wondering about her marks a long time ago. Since she received her stigmata, she's felt that whatever those evil marks have done to her mind and body were balanced out by God's brand. Her legs have grown heavy from years of wandering, but her eyes remain sharp, showing her where she must go. Demons tempt men to sin. The Mistress harvests their sins. There might not be an end to her pilgrimage but she doesn't care. Awakening as a Sin Sayer: Dear God, forgive them for their sins. Show them your grace. Wash them completely clean of their evil. Find sincerity in their hearts. Teach those fools your wisdom. Dear God, reside in my heart and purify my soul. You're my salvation, you're my only god. My heart sings for you. My lips worship you. My mouth is filled with your praise. My Lord, reside in my heart and purify my soul. Purge me and cleanse away all that is evil. Heal them with your power of salvation. - A priestess's prayer - The news of a priestess who has become the personification of Original Sin struck terror into those who had done things that they shouldn't have. She was as terrifying as the devil himself, but her wrath was never directed at the weak and innocent. A lot of people believed Doomsday had finally arrived and she was the judge. They called her the Sin Sayer. Awakening as a Redeemer: When was the last time anyone saw God? Everyone praises Him, but none of them has seen or heard him. God isn't always with us. Those who say he is only think he is. But at least His light is always with us, illuminating our path. - From an old, tattered bible - There was a priestess who devoted herself to carrying the sins of others. She wanted to help them get close to God, even if she strays far away from Him in the process. One day, she had a mysterious dream. It was incredibly vivid, and she woke up with heartache from the intensity of it. She was in a beautiful place that looked familiar to her, even though she'd never been there before. And there she met someone surrounded by blinding light. "Child, do you understand the meaning of the sins you've harvested?" His question was imprinted on her mind like letters burned into paper. Then, a radiant orb materialized before her eyes as if by magic. "This..." She knew what it was. It had many names— the Original Sin, the apple, prana, just to name a few. It was the forbidden fruit that gave birth to all sins that mankind had ever committed. It was darkness that contrasted the bright holiness of the man who stood in front of her. "Yes, My Lord, now I do." Man is His creation, and the purer they are, the closer they become to their creator. Having remembered the memories of the Paradise, the home of man before he committed Original Sin, the priestess forgives sinners and guides them to where they belong. Awakening as Neo: Mistress: "Don’t be sad, child. The sin you have reaped will pierce and sprout through your tender skin The last fragment of sin that crawls out will be the cover for the impure grounds. You merely fly and tell me. Then the seven original sins will be forgiven and you shall be granted rest. So do not be afraid of reaping sins. The first sin, the prideful bat’s wings will sprout on your right shoulder The arrogant flapping will be crushed by the wheels of the chariot led by the angels. The second sin, the avaricious raven’s feathers sprout on your left shoulder They shall be plunged into a pot of boiling oil. The third sin, the jealous snake’s mouth on your right back Will be bathed with freezing water. The fourth sin, an undiscerning wrath is like a ravenous wolf When it reaches me by your wings it shall be torn apart where it stands. The fifth sin, the lustful scorpion’s tail will be burnt by fire and sulfur, The sixth sin, the one who has the gluttonous molar shall not die and forever swallow flies and rats The seventh sin, the slothful donkey’s soul will forever tumble in the pit of the snake. You who embrace the origin of all sins are the pain of the world and my scar. Do not be afraid. Your ruined wings at the end of the pain and perseverance shall be more noble and beautiful than those of any angel. And then all will look upon you, a being most pure and true. The proud will kneel The greedy and jealous will bow The lustful and slothful shall not be able to look into your eyes. Your existence is the fear and punishment of sins. The black wings covering the skies shall be the rest for the world."
