Okay, so. I haven't written in a very long time. I already have another one on the go that I have writers block for and so I feel like if I write this one then I may get some inspiration and go on some sort of writing frenzy. So here is the prologue for my new story for The Infernal Devices, please let me know what you think. At this moment in time, the second chapter is being written. Thank you in advance and please review.

WE ARE WARRIORS

PROLOGUE – WELCOME TO THE INSTITUTE

We Shadowhunters are the only hope humanity has left. Since the beginning of time, we have worked to fight off the creatures that threaten these defenceless mundanes. We stumble upon the Downworlders of the world who lurk in the shadows and we exterminate them, for it is our job. Our duty. Our mandate. It is our legacy. And the legacy will be left behind for the next generation of Shadowhunters. They will know the truth of our kind and how important it is to protect mundanes. This legacy has been going on for centuries.

Since the great war, we have learnt that no Downworlder or Demon can be trusted. They are to be eliminated from this world for they cause more damage than good. They want to expose themselves to mundanes; take their lives, their souls, even their bodies. Some use them for blood sacrifices, others as food. Some even use them for possession.

The Clave, the keepers of The Codex and upholders of our laws, have enforced a new training program, where we train only the best Shadowhunters. They will learn to become Warriors. They will police the land of Idris, searching for Downworlders and Demons with a bounty on their heads. They will find them and they will kill them. And when they have finished their training they come here to keep up with their skills, to learn the area to which they are assigned to, and to receive their next target from the Head.

This is the place where you are protected. This is the place where you fight. This is the place where it all begins.

Welcome to the Institute.

Well, that is the prologue. Please let me know your initial thoughts on the story. It's completely an alternated universe yet it is still set mainly in Victorian London and some other places in England.
