After all of the strife between Him and His followers, Samuel knew that this was the only way to mend fragmented relations with Abaddon. Kai's absence was only the beginning, followed by the outbreak of deadly disease, and it became clear to Samuel that this ought to have been punishment from Abaddon himself! But, Samuel knew exactly what he had to do in order to remedy this wrongdoing.

A chalice sat ominously on top of a veiled table, Samuel stood looking down upon the sacrifices who knelt on the floor, praying in quiet utterances. Hands clasped comfortably behind his back, Samuel finally raised his head, gaze searching across the pews as disciples began arriving and taking their seats for today's ceremony. Despite hesitation within the hearts of the offerings, they were to understand the gravity of today's ceremony and the importance of their sacrifice. They needn't feel fear, however, as Samuel could feel the presence of Abaddon in the room with them. They were safe in His hands.
