She emerged from the deep jungles covered in blood. She had blood red eyes and a mouth full of fangs. Her tongue was forked. Her fingers ended in sharp claws.
The villagers who found her fed her, bathed her, and took care of her. And the more they cared for her, the more powerful they became. They realized slowly that she was incredibly dangerous and powerful. Not knowing what else to do, they brought her to the secret priest.
In Agikaan, the One True Faith, as they call it, was banned after their nation conquered the world and crushed it under the first of the Faith, but it still held on in hidden pockets, hidden hearts, hidden prayers all across their populous nation. It was most prominent in small villages and rural areas, but the big cities had their cults as well.
The secret priest served the One True God, and when he saw Canku, he fell to his knees. Before him was a vessel of the divine. The villagers bowed as well, and soon, they organized into a small army. They began to conquer. They began to grow in strength and number. The people of Agikaan flocked to this powerful being.
Within a year, the child was named Empress and Hand of God, and her words were taken for the truth of the One True God.
