Abigail had gotten premission to build a church of light in the capitol . Abigail even from her first garden and healing cottage to her manor, all the way to her city of light. She was a very hands on sort of person.
She first zoned out the place it was to built.
She personally spoke to all those people whom would loose a home a business, anything that was special to them in the process of deconstruction. She would offer them a price above what it was worth.
And she promsed them that she would personally see to it that she would pay for all relocation costs and rebuilding.Abigail was a wealthy woman and her wealth just contiued to grow.
Years of wise investments. Having several buisness , and doing personal favors not included in her duties to the house of light she had no problem doing this for the 10 or so people . She also dipped her hands in the temples money to make this possible.
She wanted no sour tastes in the mouth of the people whom the church was for.

The first things first was getting these people into new business and homes. Which she had promised.and that is what she would do. Some were promised houses in the new city of light other wanted to stay in the capital.
If something was degrading she would fix it up. She could afford to hire the best laborers the city and land of tyran could offer. And so that she did.
The homes would be equal if not higher quality then what they had left and the shops the same. She would also make sure each one had better then what they left with. It was only untill these homes had been built and these shops had been upgraded that she would begin the deconstruction of their formor homes .

The deconstruction of the old would be done slowly and with care . She did not want anybody getting hurt. And also to reuse anything they could from the deconstruction. Any usuable wood . If iron could be smelted to re use . Anything they could not reuse was sent to scrap pile.
If anything Abigail was neat. She would personally over see the construction and she would not stand for having bits and peices laying over the place.
She also had plans for the old equipment that people left behind, when she bought them new . She would donate these to those who wanted to start their own business to further the prosperity of the city of tyran, And to create a way for people to help them selves.

Abigail belived whole heartedly in the proverb ' give a man a fish and feed him for day , teach a man to fish and you feed him for life Time'
She helped those who helped selves. Who took opportunity and used it their advantage. Who wanted to create the world to be better place. She had survived many people who were completely self serving and they came and went.
She believed in power of hope and of love and acceptence. She did not like word chariety all though she often participated in it.
During this time she would work with the poor, the disgraced , the beaten down. She would help them find their dream . To raise them up. To.give them skills and knowledge

While mentioned before that abigail had hired the best that money could buy to deconstruction .she also used this opportunity to train a new workforce . She would offer people jobs and apprenticeships.
Some that were hired on to be apprenticed where we'll past the age that most would even consider it to be opportunity . Abigail encouraged them she always believed it was never too late to learn a new skill.
Plus this added to person's self worth. For those who were homeless that she hired. She provided shelter. She provided food and she provided clothing.

Abgail always found anything she did an opportunity to teach, to spread the word of the light. While the building was still being torn down and organized into the save pile, the donation pile , and the scrap pile . She would help people over come there adictions that kept them from steady work .
At nights when work was done she would hold classrooms to educate people. It reminded her of her younger years when she had opened up her school. Perhaps once her construction projects were over she would do it again. It would be a good way to spend her retirement years .
Though now as a Demi goddess she wondered would she ever see those years . She thought of Fred and his dream to have a small place to build to make his jewelry .
She also thought of all her children and helping them . She had to laugh , she had even spoken to Fred about starting a family with him. She shook her head she couldn't think of retirment now. There was just too much to do.

It had been a long time since Abigail had actually gotten down in the trenches so to speak and to work with the people like she had those many years ago. How could she have forgotten her one true desire.
She had gotten so cought up in politics. In the science of her alchemy . In the science of her plants. Which was all work in the light . It was all humantarian work but it was much different then being down with the people
To learn their names their family's . To celebrate their victories with them and mourn their losses . To heal their wounds first hand. To teach, to create to build a brighter future.
She shook her head at herself. She had forgotten the most important things of any humantarian work. The people

Abgail even got in there somewhat and helped, though she was really more of hinderence then a help. But it was amusing to people to watch her and it kept up moral. It took her twice as long to do something
She also found it amusing the game they would play to break up the monotony of of the work. They would have contests for drinks. Later on in the evening. At the tavern she even got in on some them though she offered to buy the drinks and would not drink herself.
She also offered bonus in the way of monatary value, and sometimes food value to some of the contests anything to keep them entertained . It was fun to see them have fun .

The contests had given Abigail a good idea . At the end of ever week she would hold a large feast . She would hire misntrals and make dance of it.
She would then use the food left over to feed them again their meals through out the week . This actually lessoned food costs. She would bring her own cooks from the manor and use this as another way to train another skill set .
Also on the days off she would take the young woman. And show them how to do hair. Embroider and tailor. Abigail when she first ventured out had to several of these things on her own. It was also fun to be around young woman again to hear them chatter. To listen. To them talk about there lives.

It was also lovely to be around the children again . To hear their laughter to watch the way they grew and devloped. To watch them learn by copying their parents . Using the scrap to make there own toys and games.
Abigail had decided this was also a good thing she encourged creativity as well and so she let the children play in the scrap suptivised . She watched them as they made many things .. bird houses ,forts , castles she watch build kingdoms and tear them down to make them up again.

As the days past and finally the deconstruction came to end.
Before the ground woukd be leveled and the construction woukd take place abigail would consecrate the ground.
She was scilent during this time introspective she would say a prayer to Sinead her sister in shared light and now some of Sineads blood ran through her.
Her second prayer would be to the light itself. The reason she dedicated her life to the temple . What she had spent her entire life doing . Sometimes sacrificing her marriage her children , her own hopes and dreams. To service within the light
Not many could understand this kind of devotion To something that was so selfless as the light. Though a few did.

To Abigail the light was about selflessness. Not looking to gain from the pain of others. She did not feed off suffering . She always put others needs before her own.
It was also about courage. Courage was not just leaping before in battle and killing your foe, it was about being put up against insurmountable odds and not letting the fear take over you. it was also about keeping your humanity in the process. That was bravery.
It was about humility Abigail had created a great many things Ib her life had done a great many things . But none of them had really been spoke of nor she speak of them. She lived her life day to day in the best way she knew how to. And went wear the light told her to go.

The light was also about patience knowing that certain people were going to be more frustrating then others. And having the faith and willingness to keep working with them.
Then there was careing. Careing was not in the same group of selflessness .it was about genuine concern and kindness towards others. To manifest in the willingness to improve other's lives . One aspect that Abigail had forgotten about till just recently .
She she though prayed about thingsher hand would glow gental and leaned down and took dirt in her hand and began to pray .

Ashe leaned down and felt the earth with Demi god hand . She could feel it's history. The energy of the people that had lived her before. The healer and the elf in her her could feel the mineral content the life inside it . She could feel what kinds of plants it would grow.
She then began her prayer
" In honor the light within our divine goddess Sinead . I honornher heart and her body as a host to the light and it's causes . "
" I honor myself as the lights lesser host that through me it's goal is full filled "
" I concentrate myself my body and my heart to the light that through this I am created anew. I offer my thoughts deeds hopes dreams and losses to the will of the light. That I will be consumed in the fire of your love so that I may be formed to your will like iron "
" I place my trust in thebkight with out reserve and hope the my transgressions are remissed through the lights infinate mervy. "
" She the would.force her hand into the ground and it would glow like her hand become consecrated ground. No darkness with I'll intent could step food inside it . It would become a safe haven for those seeking refuge from the forces if evil

It was now also that people.woukd really begin to understand the power the magic and the will of the light. Abigail took her job very seriously she always had. She knew many others dedicated their lives to the light to.the power of good and mercy . As much as she did and she was never so bold as to think she was the only one
She had met several through out her life.
After this display of power is when most would want to be blessed too and so she would spend her the rest of the afternoon and probably the next several days preaching and indoctrinating people into the light .

As the people came she would bless them one by one using the little plot of land as her chapel. The light showed it power not through graet act but acts like these. She did not need to fight or kill in the name of anything. Abigail was never a fighter and she left the fighting up to those more skilled .
As each person would step forward she would lay her hands on them and gives the blessing
"Whoever blesses other will be blessed,go forth and help other as you have been helped. Teach others as you have been taught .. you are now a bodyfor light "

This was part of job as priestess and part of her job as divine host for the light. She would take as many as she could in one day . She would hold church services. Honor and bless those who came to listen to her.
This in part was to help the people but also to further the consecration of the ground . To weave in the blessing of the light so that it styaed within the ground. And would stay there .
She would not grown tired or weary , now that she was not Demi god . Often she didn't even need sleep . This was her life and to be honest this made her happy .

Abgail would not just speak on the 5 personality traits that were nesscary to be if the light .
She also spoke about other things. That there must be balance . That light would not live with out darkness.that sometimes the light cause the shadow . Just as the sun who shine on the tree to provide shade . But still was not greater then the sun
That the balance of light and dark must be kept just as day and night, Sun and rain, Winter and spring each thing had it equal . It balance. And too much of any one thing lead to faulty thinking .

She would say " it is those whom hurt us the most and those who hurt the most must be loved the most. It is so easy to forgive those who want forgiveness, but it it's trumey an act of life to forgive those who reject forgiveness , who do not ask for mercy and relish in the ways if hurting others. "
" that is not to say that forgiveness means letting the hurt us or that we can not protect our lives , it does not mean we do become angry or frustrated. The light can burn just as easy as it heals ."
" When evil threatens to destroy us to over take us to upset the balance then we owe it to ourselves to recreate that balance . But we try to do it peacefully first and using reason and logic "

She would end the days of the preaching and the blessing with one final note
" We must also remember that we ourselves are not perfect , that we too can perform great acts of evil or light . "
" So just as we are kind with other we must be kind with ourselves, to forgive ourselves and ask for forgiveness to make our wrongs right and to always remember that we create the life we live. We are all daughters and sons of creations . We are all hosts in way way to the light and it's purpose . "
She would end and the once she was sure the energy of the light was throughly embedded into the dirt of the the new temple would she allow the leveling and buding if the foundation if the church

Gadreel appeared from the sky floating down to the building "ahh it is a beautiful place. hello dear abigail i dont think we have officially met but i have heard of you through the good deeds that you do. I am Gadreel the angel." he said as he landed and began to fold his wings into his back and put on his shirt and jacket looking put together in his nice suit.
Gadreel was a angel new to tyran he lacked the suttle human cues and some of the emotions. he had never really felt emotions before and it was all new to him as was free will. He was definetely different by the way he spoke and by the way he presented himself

Abgail would lay the blue prints out on the table she would numbers and shape that would be scared to the temple.and the scrolls of old to the light . The contained mathematical ways to construct huge buildings and make them last the centries.
Abigail.planned to make this a huge display tomthe light a safe house and chappel refuge. And also a way of escape. If it was needed.
The grounds would be squared off first the dug they would go as far as 25 feet underground this was the first stage if planning and it had to be prescise . As any errors could lead to weakness in the walls and the collapse when the roof was put on.

Abigail looked up as the voice spook to her and decended from the heavens . The goddess told her of an angel that would take her her place as high priest when he finishes his tasked .
" It a pleasure I am sure , I am glad that you have heard of my works for the light but I can not take credit for then for it is the light that guides my life and my works .. "
As they would talk the digging would begin to take place and it would be hauld out. By wheel barrow this would take several weeks
" It is nice of you to come buy and visit with the other members of the temple . How is your task coming along ? "

Gadreel adjusted his suit and smiled "well it is coming along i have visited two cities so far and one is in the process of voting if they want a shrine while the other said no." he said looking to her "i see you are building a church here i think that is mighty smart of you and those that help are surely good light people." he said smiling to her "my task should be done in the next few weeks then i will be ready to ascend to your old position" he said as he smiled "i must ask what spurred you to do this?" he asked curiously

She motion him him along as she talked Abigail could not stay in one place . She liked to take personal investment . In all her projects
" The temple of evil but a church here. Which I was unhappy about as the capitol had always been neutral grounds and access to all.
I spoke with queen about haulting it's construction for the sake of balance .
She would not, because technically they had done nothing to promote a reason for it not to be here . But instead personally gave us premission to.build a church of light to keep it's balance. "
Abigails would not help out as far as labor at least as far getting deep in a hole digging or carring dirt but she would help turn the the pulley to bring dirt up while other carried it to wagons.. she would of or course ordered this dirt to mixed with manaure to make great fertilized soil.
And the delivered to farmers to work into their feild before the winter hit so next year's years crops would yeild greater numbers
" And what is your last city ?"

" Night haven is a very neutral place I can see why they would not take sides "
She handed him a bucket of water" go water down the workers " she gave him a mischevious smiles if he was here he would work with her
" After she had helped for a while and everyone was on break as it reached the hottest part of the day she would sit down with also enjoying the cool refreshing watwr " and what have you learned of the towns that you have visited .

Even while they were talking at the same time.the dirt was being hauled in stone was being mines for a quarry . Split along the natural fault line and the carved intoninvidual peices .
As wagons would be pulling out wagons would be pulling . Some empty some full of stone . Also equipment would be come forth and the master manons. To carve the stone into patterns and paint them
After the heat of the day and the eving cool they would finish up what they could before night would fall . She invited gadreal to stay and chat with her. To get know the people that would build the finest church .
The length of the church would cover half the length of a foot ball feild. [

Gadreel did just as she asked and then looked to her when he came back "i have learned that night haven was created for everyone no matter who you are and that their rulers many needed to escape something back home whether or not they were forced out and at the dragon kingdom i learned it was there a long time but the current leader came upon it and was there for a long time and likes to keep the peace. he likes the position he is in now and hopes to create peace with all for as long as he can have it." he said looking to her with a smile

She smiles as she listens " one of church priests and our shrine maiden come from night haven did you know that ? "
She takes a sigh as the head of the day cooled and she got up to work again though she would not go back to.labor she would stand and help the get prepared for supper as she fed her workers.
She would not help cook not a million years but she would help serve .she gave gadreal a place in the line to hand out the food
As the workers finished up what they could for they day they would wash and head for the food" and tempest is. Very fair and just ruler he also follows the light and has for many a year."
