Prophet Of The Eternal

by Torlek

Amara goes along, as Chuck attempts to restore the highest level of prophecy in response to the prideful ambitions of the former's intelligent creation, the most powerful created being in existence. Along the way, the prophetic appointee challenges them repeatedly. (Set after the events of Back At The Bar and Bonding Outside The Bar, and also after the changes made in Time Out)

25. This Extraterrestrial Force

This Extraterrestrial Force

With the storm whirl ready to provide support, the fire whirl maintained his focus upon Moses Levinsky. While intertwining with the Darkness in the manner of siblings, God disclosed the purpose of the meeting.

"Now then, an extraterrestrial force has arisen in might," he began by alluding to Sefira, referring to one of her favourite epithets.

An extraterrestrial force has arisen in might? That's quite an allusion to my daughter, your niece, that you've made there, Brother!

If I said 'false deity,' Sis, he'd walk away there and then! Just as you as a concept don't exist at all to him, she as an overpowered me-wannabe is irrelevant to his thinking. The gross misperception of my one-time favourite son as the 'god of this world' is already taboo for this guy. That's all the more reason for him to treat as taboo the notion that the beloved dark cloud of yours can rival me!

"Much more than the Chaldeans of old is this force absolutely fierce, hasty, impetuous, and ruthless," the more masculine of the two entities evoked the legacy of the Chaldeans when describing the character of the Lesser Darkness.

"To further evoke ancient prophecy about those same Chaldeans: this new force moves throughout the expanse of this universe and the other dimensions of Creation itself," he narrated, "to claim sovereignty over all manner of realms that belong to others."

Upon hearing repeated references to the Chaldeans, the mortal one's interest in what was relayed to him became piqued.

"This extraterrestrial force," the Supreme Being continued, refraining from doing so in more personal terms, "is daunting and spine-chilling, and emanates fearsome authority and majesty."

"Very powerful creatures subordinated to this are, in and of themselves, also fierce and hasty," he spoke obliquely about his niece's six Dark Archangels, four Dark Arch-Nephilim, and varying celestial forces under her command.

"Above all else, the worst kind of narcissism is what this force is full of," he concluded without referring in explicit terms to his niece's self-made sense of divinity, "Even the Chaldean kings of old attributed all their power externally, albeit to man-made gods."

While Moses Levinsky became interested in learning more, the Darkness merely acknowledged this narrative that had been given by God.

Author's Note: Chuck's literary description of Sefira was inspired by the warning about the Chaldean threat to the Kingdom of Judah in Habakkuk 1:6-11.
