The Second Apocalypse

Merlin and Vivien (Nimue?)

I slept more soundly than I had ever before. I dreamed of a peace between Heaven and Earth that can only become reality if I do what goes against all that I have ever known. I have enough influence among my own peers that this single action could cause a serious division in our unity. It may merely mean the end of my association with them. But it could also eventually mean my death. It will not take long for me to rouse the ire of Caesar himself. Eventually, they will place a price on my head higher than Jacob's Ladder. Soon after I am turned in, I will be sentenced to a painful death. And with all this on my shoulders, I dreamed that I was in the presence of both my creator and my enemy. I felt total serenity and yet I feared for my very soul. I saw the face of God. A message burned through me that I must do what I knew would ruin my life in this world. The moment I awoke I was reborn. In honour of such a feeling, I took on a new name - just as Abraham had done - that would represent my service to the Creator. Once I was Saul, born in Alexandria, a highly-educated Jew and respected citizen of the empire. And the best assassin, with more kills and live captures than any other Christian-hunter. I have a beautiful wife but no children. Now I am Paul. I cannot deny any longer that the messiah has already come. I have seen him and he is the same God I have both worshipped and hunted. My sins are many, but they may be redeemed if only I believe. Tomorrow I will destroy my world to save the world I live in. // // // // //

The Hell Law says that Hell is reserved exclusively for them that believe in it. Further, the lowest Rung in Hell is reserved for them that believe in it on the supposition that they'll go there if they don't. Fred 3:1, 'Honest Book of Truth,' Principia Discordia
