'The Last Days' of our nation

Religious fervor has gripped our nation as the population have become convinced the end of days is drawing nearer. Peasants are talking of signs in the sky and contrary to the doctrine of the State Church local priests are giving sermons on the apocalypse. As Millenarianism sweeps the province blame is being put on the State and State Church itself which professes to be Protestant yet clearly is not living up to its name.\nOfficial reactions have so far been very weak as even among the clergy of our capital some feel these fears are justified.
