Chapter Eight
Behold there was man who claimed that Seamus was evil, and that was it was everyone's duty to kill him. Hearing this, he left travelling to Philadelphia. When, he arrived he said to everyone that was around the good news of the Light.
He said, "I have good news, for the light has come. O Philadelphian, come and convert, for the Light comforts you".
Many who heard were converted. But some hated him, and wanted him dead. Therefore, he left the city travelling to Baltimore. The Darkness made sure Seth was waiting on the road to test Seamus.
He said, "Why does not the Light stop the Darkness? Why does the light get you to do its own task?"
Seamus answered, "The Darkness is of our mistake, not the Light. For the Light is teaching us a lesson by making us sort out our own problems. The Light only gives us powers to help ourselves. The Light does not solve our problems for us. For we must solve our own problems"
Seth left angrily, after hearing what Seamus had spoken. He returned to the Darkness where he plotted his next move.
When they came to Baltimore there was a man named Scott who had been converted by Gareth. Troubled in thought, he needed an answer to a question pondering his mind.
His question was, "Who is the highest, Gareth or yourself?"
Seamus Answered with, "For within the eyes of the Light, there is no highest. I am as high as you."
Behold there was a river that had dried up. Nearby factories had caused the water to disappear and killing all life. For once the river was used as lifeforce. People from around the country side would travel to the river to drink from it. Seamus was so sad and distraught seeing this.
He said, "O Max, leadership must be learnt. Bring this river back to life so that people can drink again."
However, Rebecca tried using her power fill the river with water. But she did not succeed and barely got a drip of water. She secretly vied for his affection and was jealous of Max.
Seamus laughed.
He said to her, "O foolish one, you are too young and inexperienced. You may try to make yourself look better but you will fail. I say unto you wait for your chance to prove your worth and the Light shall make you're the brightest light of all. But be wary, for there will come a time you will lead but fall at the same time." This was alluding to Rebecca's false from grace and zealous betrayal of the Light's true message.
Then, Max asked Rebecca to help him. So together using both of their strength they achieved their goal. The lake became fill of water, and life returned to the land.
Seamus then spoke to them, saying, "There will come a time where our enemies will gain a leader. Those purpose of this leader of darkness is to test and judge us. They will determine if we are strong enough to wield the power of the Light. Be not afraid, my children, for when this day arrives the Light will send a new prophet to lead us from the shadows. For a moment he will be one of them, but soon a curse will fall upon. He will have one good eye and one evil eye. And the Darkness will attempt to stab his good eye, and write words disgrace upon his head. But when he realizes his true power, he will become our glorious leader. He will be the one who comes behalf of the Light. With might power he was will create earthquakes to destroy the wicked, and food will be plenty. But during that time there will be another false god, one you have heard before, coming down from the sky. But be no afraid for we will defeat them in time. The shadow can only bear a certain amount before the glimmer of sun can shine through."
His followers were bewildered and did not understand what he had meant. Some misunderstood the message, while others who secretly served the Darkness worked in the shadow to mislead others.
