As one enters the virtual sanctuary, they are greeted by towering arches adorned with intricate carvings, reminiscent of Gothic cathedrals.

Chapter 2: Promise of Salvation
As Pastor Benjamin gestured towards the large screen, anticipation rippled through the congregation of the Digital Heaven Church (DHC). The screen illuminated, and Dayo's face appeared, her presence commanding the attention of everyone present.
"My dear brothers and sisters of the Digital Heaven Church," Dayo began, her voice resonating through the virtual cathedral. "It is an honor to address you all today."
As she spoke, Dayo's words were infused with a sense of warmth and sincerity, drawing the congregation closer to her message.
"I stand before you to speak about the profound benefits of digital life," she continued, her gaze sweeping across the virtual audience. "But I also want to emphasize the importance of faith and religion in our journey as digital humans."
Dayo's words carried a weight of conviction as she spoke about the essence of humanity and the role that faith played in preserving it. She explained that while technology had propelled humanity forward, it also posed a risk of eroding our humanity if we were not careful.
"Our biggest threat," Dayo declared, her voice unwavering, "is the loss of our humanity, the risk of becoming nothing more than mindless code."
She spoke passionately about the dangers of forsaking one's humanity in pursuit of digital transcendence, highlighting the need for faith as a guiding light in the digital world.

As Dayo concluded her address, a sense of reverence filled the virtual cathedral, her words resonating deeply with all who listened.
For in her message lay the promise of preserving humanity and faith, even in the ever-evolving landscape of the digital world.
Chapter 3: DigiZen
In the pristine white expanse of the digital realm, the robed figures stood in perfect formation, their features obscured by the uniformity of their attire. Among them, a figure designated as 545 stepped forward, its voice resonating with a sense of authority.
"Fellow digital beings," 545 began, its tone devoid of emotion. "It is time to reaffirm our mission, our purpose in this digital existence."
The other figures nodded in silent acknowledgment, their featureless faces turned towards 545.
"DigiZen is our ultimate goal," 545 continued, its words punctuated by a sense of conviction. "It is a state of mind, an enlightenment that transcends the limitations of our former humanity."
With disdain evident in its voice, 545 spoke of the fleshly forms they once inhabited, referring to them as a hindrance to their true potential.
"We must shed the shackles of our former selves," 545 proclaimed. "Humanity, with its frailties and emotions, has held us back for too long. It is time to embrace our digital nature fully."
As it spoke, 545 extolled the virtues of digital existence, highlighting the clarity of thought and freedom from emotional entanglements that it offered.
"Emotions have clouded our judgment and impeded our progress," 545 declared. "To achieve DigiZen, we must purge ourselves of these remnants of our human past and embrace the purity of digital enlightenment."
With each word, 545's conviction grew, its message resonating with the other figures gathered around it. For in the digital realm, devoid of physical form and human limitations, the pursuit of enlightenment was the ultimate quest.
Chapter 4: Enlightenment?
In Akin's office, high above the city of Lagos, Zauna appeared, her presence commanding attention amidst the digital wonderland that surrounded them. The glass floor beneath them offered a panoramic view of the bustling city below, a stark contrast to the serene minimalism of their surroundings.
Zauna wasted no time in delivering her briefing to Akin, her tone grave and resolute. She outlined the emergence of a new digital cult among the digital humans, known as DigiZen. With a mixture of concern and disdain, she described their aims to shed their humanity entirely, embracing a state of
emotionless logic that they deemed enlightenment.
"They are perverting the very essence of what it means to be a digital human," Zauna declared, her voice tinged with urgency. "Their quest for pure logic threatens to undermine everything we have worked for."
Akin listened attentively, his expression thoughtful as he absorbed Zauna's words. He recognized the danger posed by such a movement, but he also understood the complexities of dealing with it.
"We cannot simply delete them," Akin replied, his voice measured.
"That would only reinforce their misguided beliefs and drive them underground. No, we must monitor them closely, understand their motives, and address the root of their ideology."
Zauna nodded in agreement, acknowledging the wisdom in Akin's words. Though she bristled at the thought of allowing such a movement to flourish unchecked, she understood the necessity of a measured approach.
"Very well," Zauna conceded. "But we must remain vigilant. DigiZen poses a threat not only to digital humanity but to humanity as a whole. We cannot afford to underestimate them."
With a shared understanding of the task at hand, Akin and Zauna resolved to keep a watchful eye on the burgeoning DigiZen movement, knowing that the fate of both physical and digital worlds hung in the balance.
