Prologue

A hazy darkness filled the room. Edward Millan, chairman of Trinity found this somewhat satisfying, comforting. Trinity had worked in the darkness for the past century. His great grandfather had formed the group after the Masons discovered a grim secret hidden within the Codex Telleriano-Remensis, an Aztec manuscript. They deciphered within it a prophecy of an imminent catastrophe set to befall the earth. An asteroid was on a path directly towards the planet. The Masons set to work attempting to find a way to avert the disaster. They set up space programmes and began the development of star wars weapons, all the while keeping quiet to the masses that there was a potential danger hurtling towards them. Edwards's grandfather was himself a Mason; however upon personal study of the Codex he found another message, an enigma. "When the Illuminated take control, the world will groan under the pressure of collision. The tyrant shall fall and the sun will implode, drenching the world in darkness. Acknowledge these signs and you will know the end is nigh. Seek the staff, spear and pendant and heaven will be your throne" Edward muttered silently to himself, marvelling at the absurd simplicity of the riddle that so few had figured out, let alone found hidden within the Codex. All of these had come to pass. Weishaupt's Illuminati infiltrated the masons creating an 'Illuminated' materialistic world. This in turn led to great conflict around the world. The tyrant the riddle spoke of referred to Hitler. Lastly the riddle spoke of the defeat of the sun queen Himiko. All that was left for Edward was to come into possession of the 3 artefacts mentioned. If he had them, he thought to himself, then he will have the world in the palm of his hand. Trinity in just over one century will have done what all other esoteric groups before them had failed to do in hundreds... no thousands of years.

As Edward mulled these thoughts over in his head, feeling triumphant at how well everything had worked out so far, the screen in the corner of the room lit up the darkness. "Niikura Toru reporting Sir. We have some very good news for you" This is destiny Edward thought to himself smugly as he answered the call "Tell me what you have found Toru San"
