Re: Chapter 3: The Secrets Within
In reply to Aeviternus (msg # 76):
"Don't worry old one, I'm not keeping secrets, I could give a fuck at this point. I merely marvel at your ability to speak my tongue. To my ears it sounds perfect, from my home. This is not an ability that is common even among my people or Earth's. Only the Elders and Royalty had this ability. The Judaens are the direct ancestors of Royalty, it would be in their blood. This is why I ask. I'm not a scholar, so I don't know as much as many, but probably more than anyone here." He again looked down in thought.
"I am or was a soldier during the SAW, as we called it. The Second Apocalyptic War of Eden. I have been a prisoner of war for a little over 60 years here on Earth." He flexed his hands open and close, turning them over, seeming to look at them for the first time in quite a while.
"Eden, is the AO, the Prime world, the birth of life, cradle of life, Seed of Souls, there's too many names to list. It is the birth place of this world, Earth is from Eden, it was created and then sent out to where it is currently traveling during this phase. The "garden" is an extension of home, Earth was made in the direct image of Eden, many were not, but here was just like home. A garden just like home. Every place on Earth is a wonderful creation in Eden's image. So technically I was born here in a colony, but we pulled out, back to Eden when the war broke out. We were lucky, many of our people did not make it. Later during the war I was captured during a rather intense battle, a war criminal they said. A few years later I was sent back here, to be used like a stud animal to breed and to kill."
He spoke so plainly, so matter of fact, it was truth to him, raving as it sounded, he said it in a retelling state as if he were reminiscing in the past.
