Chapter Nine
Seamus left for Annapolis, which he had longed to go to. According to legend there was a great sage who lived there and knew of the Light. He was eager to talk with the sage to see what they knew. Once he arrived, however, he discovered Seth was planning an ambush with the intention to kill him. Seth had grown a deep hatred for Seamus for he had continued to embarrass him. Seamus left for Washington because of this.
When he arrived, he discovered many people were bowing down to the false gods Jehovah. The city's mayor had degreed all its citizenry worship a false idol in the shape of a cross. The president was too weak to stop the mayor. Seamus decided to revealed to them the truth, and the fatal error they were making. The light talked to him in his sleep that night, telling him if he did not do so, terrible things will happen. When he announced his intention, his followers were fearful of his plan and warned him not to follow up on them. They knew the ones who were worshiping the idol secretly wanted to kill him.
He said to his followers, "Fear not, for only the Light knows the true path. Only the Light knows our fate. Believe in the plan."
And so, he went to the idol worshippers, revealing his almighty Light. Although they were angry, the worshipers were fearful for he had the Light on his side.
Seamus said to them, revealing the Light, "Keep yourselves from idols. But the Light can save you, as he did for me. For there was once was a man who trusted the boss he worked for. But the boss went mad with power, began to whip his workers. He forced his workers to work so hard they died. And although the boss had promised the workers a reward, death was their only reward. For this is what your false god Jehovah is doing! Curse those who say that the Light is a lie, for the false god you believe in is one of them."
When they heard this, they began throwing rocks at him. His followers managed to sneak him out of the city, climbing down a wall in the basket.
Behold on the road a tree was dying. Men with axes were ready to cut the tree down. Seamus yelled angrily, cursing the men's existence.
He said, "Wicked ones, why kill a life. What has this tree done to deserve such a punish, if that is call a punish for the tree has done no wrong. For when the Light makes your life no more if you continue your pursuit. I will spit and curse you."
This anger the men, forcing his followers and him to run the whole way to Richmond. When he arrived, he approached the town square to preach the coming and good news of the Light.
He said to them, "Behold, I send to you the Light. "For the Light will give you happiness. For there was a man who said he was happy to work for his boss. He said he would die for his boss. When his boss killed the one that he loved dearest, he had no choose but to still love his boss. Is this not an abusive relationship? Would you do that if you false god Jehovah did that?"
Those in the city heard his words, and were so shocked at what he said, that they told him to leave their city.
