Biography

Originally a copyist monk, Columba focused on not only copying the texts, but also studying others, eventually finding some that spoke of a demon living in Loch Ness. Going to confront it, the monk discovered the "demon" was a large temple complex under the lake, the entrance of which would rise out of the water like a monster. Inside the temple, he found a black stone-like book. Using the book's powers, Saint Columba went on to form his own Christian sect, converting many and establishing an abbey inside the temple. He would send letters to royalty and abbeys in England, seeking to convert them by showing the "miracles" the codex allowed him to create.[1]

Eventually, he attracted the attention of both the Order of the Ancients' Grand Maegester Alfred the Great and the Hidden One Adelaïde, both of whom sought to remove the codex from Columba's hands. Adelaïde hatched a plan with Niels Gunnarsson and Edward while Alfred had Ecbert infiltrate the temple. Edward and Niels were caught during the Hidden Ones' infiltration, but distracted the sect enough for Adelaïde to start a mechanism that flooded the temple. Columba had his goons fight them, but upon their defeat, turned and fled from the location.[1]
