Renewal Water and the Rules

In Haven City there exists the Temple of Peace. and inside the Temple of Peace exists the Renewal Water a.k.a. The Fountain of Youth. The Water has a divine intelligence (hense the saying “By the Water” instead of “Oh my God”). The Order of Priests and Priestesses of the Temple of Peace or the Order are in charge of initiating, keeping the Temple clean, meditating/praying to the water, and commuticating the Water’s demands to the public. And those demands come in the form of rule. Obey the rules for just one year and you can keep the gift and live. Disobey and you will die.
  1. No man, animal, or statue is a god and therefore should not be worshipped as one. They can represent, speak for, or be controlled by gods but they themselves are not gods. Anything that can die, decay, or be destroyed through the natural passage of time is not a divine spirit.
  2. Don’t do evil acts: intentional harm of others or self without the reason of self-defense.
  3. Every right-minded Individual having an opinion should be given a chance to peacefully express an opinion. Any attempt to stop a chance is to be considered an evil and should be defended against.
  4. Don’t be doing stupid things. Think before you act & use your own damn common sense. If you know something may go wrong and someone might be hurt if it is done than don’t do it.

  1. This is really interesting! Is it part of your novel, or just your beliefs? (Which could be part of your novel...hm...)

    I like number four the best. :)

    The part about the water is only in the novel. The rules are both.
