The omen was long prophesied that the god of the Aztec will be appeased in the day of the red blood sky. Thus the quest for sacrificial victims were a constant feature among the Aztecs. Victims from war were sacrificed on the altar of Sapphire. It was hoped that he would be appeased and the rain of blood will usher in the year of fertility. Gruid was one of the victims caught by the Aztecs for sacrifice but was under covenant to be kept secure by the god, Sapphire. The Aztecs believed that the beating heart of their victims bring joy to their god so they always cut out the heart of the victim while still alive and raised it high up to the sky for the pleasure of their god. But when it came to the turn of Gruid to be sacrificed, the sky became blood red in broad day light with an earthquake that dismantled their altar setting Gruid free. The priest looked on in horror as all looked at Griud as god incarnate. Sapphire was able to rescue his own giving him a godlike demeanor on the day of the blood red sky.
