them, go to the priest to ask them for help. Some people give all
of their money and land to the Wizards because they believe that
the Wizards is the agent of Satan, if the Satan happy, then the
Black Death will be gone. Also pay the money to the church, so
the church became power and had a lot of money in Europe.
