Across a distant land, a powerful clergy formed. Not so much forming around any one diety or ideal, this group preached general tolerance and belief in the goodness of all, while quietly amassing power for themselves and taking over larger and larger areas. Unlike most, they could never produce their divinities, but could provide increasingly powerful demonstrations of miracles as the years went by, powers they said where granted by their nebulous god.
Although founded by good intentions, this seat of power inevitably attracted those only looking for their own comfort, and as this group's power waxed, it's morality waned. The average perisher still believed in the teachings of goodness, but the new upper class was drawn to greater and greater depravities in the shadows.
One day, a tall warior, covered in armor, strode unafraid into the largest church. Asked of his identity, he stated that it was only important that he was the chosen Champion of the one they chose as their god, and proclaimed that thier god has cast them out for the misuse of their power.
None of the priest's amulets or protection worked from that day, and none of their warriors where able to subdue this champion. The entire body of priests came togther upon him, and a great pillar of light rose, and smote them all down. From that day fourth, the Pillar of Divinity reigned unopposed.
