The Life and Times of The Second Coming of St. Andral

  • Andral was no priest or holy figure, though he was named after St. Andral and devoutly believed in the Morning Lord. At that time, the Church actually wasn't a church at all, but was Andral's house.
  • A noble of one of the great Houses sinned so gravely he was cursed to become a vampire.
  • Witnessing their Lord’s heinous act, a couple dozen of his own guards fired the arrows that killed him. While he managed to hunt down a couple of these guards, many of them fled to Vallaki where Andral took them in.
  • The vampire tracked the remaining guards to Andral’s home, intent on exacting his revenge. However, Andral miraculously withstood each and every attempt the vampire made to charm him, barring the vampire from entering his home.
  • Andral declared that so long as he remained in his home, the people within would be safe from the the vampire’s evil. Both Andral and the guards ended up living out the rest of their lives in Andral's house, never once leaving. They grew their own food using potted plants and lived entirely communally. Eventually, they all grew old and passed away, never leaving the house.
  • Before long, Andral was heralded as the second coming of St. Andral and amassed a following of his own.
  • After Andral’s passing, the house continued to protect the remaining inhabitants from the vampire’s wrath. The land itself had become hallowed as a result of Andral’s virtuous actions and Andral was heralded a saint by the people.
  • As the house aged, it was eventually torn down and the church built in its place. So long as St. Andral's bones remain on site, the church is consecrated.
