'Verbum Initium' it's Latin for 'The Begining word' a ceremony where one receives their Word. In this world the goddess, Verbilixa, blessed humanity with her words countless generations ago. Since then at the exact moment of their 18 year of life one would disappear for 15 minutes into the Verbum Nexus where one meets the goddess. When they return they're lives are forever altered after receiving their Word.
