[Auth Note] It’s time to resurrect the Night Gods and finally get this finished up and published along with Ray. I’m revamping the story, contemporizing it to include the fake pandemic, using it to kick off the war that causes almost total destruction. This effort will include a re-edit, I hope to make it better as we go, and I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I do writing it. Having read through the first few chapters, I can see it really needs work. I guess this will be a test of how much my writing has improved, if any.
Man is in process of changing
to forms that are not of this world.
Grows he in time to the formless,
a plane on the cycle above.
Know ye, ye must become formless before ye are with the LIGHT
Speak I of Ancient Atlantis,
speak of the days
of the Kingdom of Shadows,
speak of the coming
of the children of shadows.
Out of the great deep were they called
by the wisdom of earth-men,
called for the purpose of gaining great power.
Far in the past before Atlantis existed,
men there were who delved into darkness,
using dark magic, calling up beings
from the great deep below us.
Forth came they into this cycle.
Formless were they of another vibration,
existing unseen by the children of earth-men.
Only through blood could they have formed being.
Only through man could they live in the world.
In ages past were they conquered by Masters,
driven below to the place whence they came.
But some there were who remained,
hidden in spaces and planes unknown to man.
Lived they in Atlantis as shadows,
but at times they appeared among men.
Aye, when the blood was offered,
for they came they to dwell among men.
In the form of man they amongst us,
but only to sight were they as are men.
Serpent-headed when the glamour was lifted
but appearing to man as men among men.
Crept they into the Councils,
taking forms that were like unto men.
Slaying by their arts
the chiefs of the kingdoms,
taking their form and ruling o'er man.
Only by magic could they be discovered.
Only by sound could their faces be seen.
Sought they from the Kingdom of shadows
to destroy man and rule in his place. (Emerald Tablets of Thoth #8)
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. (Ephesians 6:10-13)
The Night Gods are extra-dimensional entities that get sustenance from negative energy produced by the evil men do. Satan is a manifestation of their presence on earth, persuading men to do evil by indulging in things of this world -- his dominion. In all of these stories, I try to explore the nature of evil. There's what I call Hollywood evil- a bunch of nuts in black robes running around shouting "Hail Satan," and then there’s real evil... Power- the power of life and death over other human beings. Those that seek power serve the dark forces that live in a different vibrational dimension -- the realm of the Night Gods. This isn't to imply in any way that Hollywood evil isn't real, there's nothing make-believe about it. Perhaps overt vs. covert evil may be a better analogy. "Nice" people don't seek power... power is sought by individuals that wield it like a sword to control others. Power for the sake of power and evil for the sake of evil are virtually synonymous. The overt evil, is evil for the sake of evil -- a show. Covert evil, is evil for the sake of power and is far more insidious.
There will emerge a character named Baraq U'Bamah... This is NOT former president Barack Obama. This man isn't American and doesn't even speak English, except through a translator. I selected this name because of the Hebrew meaning. In the Books of Isaiah and Luke in the Bible, prophecy says that when Satan comes he will come as "A flash of light (Baraq) from (U) on high (Bamah). So, once again, this is NOT the former president, it is a fictional character in a made up story.
Once again, I want to thank everyone for their support. I only hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoy writing it. I can't wait to find out how things turn out- I have no idea what will happen until I get up at around 3:00 AM, have a cup of coffee and pick up my "magic pen."
PROLOGUE
It all began with the virus, a manufactured pandemic that began in China and spread throughout the world. By the time people realized it was a massive hoax it was too late, economies were destroyed, particularly that of America, the ultimate target of the corporatist elites. There were lockdowns and rioting in the streets leading to hundreds of thousands being murdered by the military and police. The mainstream media blamed the president, not only for the turmoil at home, but abroad as well leading to all out war. By the time it was done, the entire civilized world was in shambles. National economies that had depended upon the prosperity of America for decades turned and fought against her. The only ones that escaped unscathed were the corporate elites, the acolytes of the Night Gods. After escaping to their New Zealand bunkers to ride out the violence, they resettled in Switzerland, now an armed fortress protecting the elites.
The attempt by the global elites to use the pandemic hoax to secure power having blown up in their faces, they resorted to using the United Nations as an iron fist to crush resistance around the world. Their age-old game, dictatorship disguised as freedom, was now backed by military force. Gone were any pretenses of the “common good,” “peace through diplomacy.” Now there were only draconian edicts enforced by violence. The war began over Taiwan and the Chinese incursion into the islands in the South China Sea. America’s former allies, now dependent on China for cheap products and labor, joined with China against America. It was all orchestrated by the international bankers and multinational corporations in response to the failure of the pandemic.
The war was over and for all intents and purposes, the peace that followed would likely turn out more violent and calamitous than the war itself- if peace is even what it could be called. True to the Doctor's predictions, the entire Eastern seaboard was virtually wiped out... The urban centers at least. The same was true of every major urban center nationwide. From Washington northward, New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, Providence... all gone, destroyed by precision nuclear attacks. Likewise, Chicago, New Orleans, Denver, Detroit, Phoenix, St. Louis- gone, but by conventional weapons. Similarly, the West Coast fell to nuclear attack- Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, Portland, Seattle, Sacramento- wiped out. Only roving gangs dared to go there, foraging through the rubble for anything of value they could steal.
Some of the state capitals managed to survive, in one form or another. It took a few years to accomplish, but a semblance of order had been restored. Basic services- electricity, sanitation, postal service, phone services, television (State run now) even the internet. Automobiles once again graced the roads, but travel was restricted for average citizens... UN checkpoints along every major artery were commonplace. The most profound difference came in policing and security- it was all under the auspices of the United Nations. This was true worldwide... Nationalism as a form of governing was a thing of the past.
Most of the foreign capitals and major urban centers were also gone, those not targeted by nukes were destroyed by conventional weapons. Rome, Paris, London, Berlin, all gone... taking millennia of history with them... no one was spared the fiery onslaught. As was the case in the US, basic services had been restored... along with blue-helmeted UN soldiers patrolling the streets of every city that had at least been partially rebuilt. The world was being rebuilt, one city after another from the rubble of the past.
Although the purpose of the false pandemic was to institute a global political order, many people around the globe still maintained a strong national and cultural identity, but the political apparatus was enforced by the UN and their draconian laws were enforced by equally draconian troops.This displeased many around the world and pockets of resistance began to spring up with a frequency that alarmed the political elites... and they grew in numbers every day. The animosity, in large part, was fueled by the conduct of the UN "peacekeepers" themselves. They policed with the barbarous cruelty of the Gestapo... they took what they wanted and brutalized the populace- no matter where they were- no laws seemed to apply to them. Most of the soldiers were from former third world African nations, India, and the Middle East, all with an axe to grind against the US -- others were from the "host" country, military who had sold out to the oppressors. To add to the rancor, they wantonly raped any woman that pleased them and savagely beat any who dared to resist -- often to death.
Every nation had a puppet government... all controlled by the UN, who had moved their headquarters from New York to the safety of Switzerland- the only nation completely spared the destruction. It was an inversion of the previous paradigm... where the United Nations had previously played a secondary role, they were now the governing body of the world. Each nation still maintained a capital (America's now was in Las Vegas, which had miraculously escaped the devastation) and a president -- a mere figurehead who served as representative to the UN's Council of Nations. The UN President, hand selected by globalist bankers and the amalgam of Councils around the world, presided over global policy making. It was the epitome of the corporate elites’ New World Order dream of the 20th Century. The globalists finally got their wish- but it took a worldwide cataclysm bigger than the hoax pandemic to achieve it.
The monied elites of every country picked up where they left off. Loaning money to effect the necessary cleanup and repairs- they would get richer from the devastation, while the poor would foot the bill. As it had been after WWI, the most egregiously affected nations would demand reparations from America. Unfortunately, there was no real federal authority, so the peacekeepers looted whatever they could steal... except from the elites -- they ones that hadn't relocated abroad. America was learning what it was like to be on the receiving end of endless aggression... only it wasn't the ones responsible that were picking up the tab.
What was left of the military were partially conscripted into the service of the UN. Those who refused were stripped of their arms and either released or imprisoned, according to the whims of the interlopers. Many of those who chose to remain in service, quickly began to organize- founding a refurbished version of Oathkeepers. If there was to be any hope for America's survival as an independent entity -- the New Oathkeepers (NO) would play a pivotal role. Unlike the original Oath Keepers, they did more than talk- the NO were people of action who thwarted the aggression of the UN at every opportunity. They had little by way of leadership, most of the brass -- the upper echelon of the military leadership, had quickly sold out.
Throughout the country, secret militias sprang up, patriots who refused to knuckle under to the oppressors. The globalist NWO may have won in the short term, but their victory would prove pyrrhic. Day after day, snipers took potshots at the pretty blue helmets. The State run media invariably portrayed these patriots as a "cabal of criminal thugs and right-wing extremists who would soon be brought to justice." The anti-American left-wing groups that had proliferated since the 1960's and led the subsequent riots after the outbreak immediately threw in with the oppressors -- partly out of ideological uniformity and partly out of cowardice... They learned during the riots and looting that it's easy to be brave when you have the police to protect you.
America's European allies fared little better. Groups in the UK, France, Italy, Germany and other nations were also forming militias. They had more difficulty having given up their weapons decades ago. They set traps and stole weapons from the UN troops, as well as raiding armories. The indigenous leadership in many of these nations were replaced by Muslim puppets who had emigrated during the American incursion into the Middle East... All had an axe to grind. The Scandinavian countries were mostly under Muslim control.
Russia had mostly been spared with the exception of Moscow. St. Petersburg, unscathed, was the new seat of the Russian government- such as it was. A strong national fervor was taking root there as well- the Russians, always known for their irresolute national identity, weren't about to buckle to the UN pressures. Activities similar to those in the US were going on there as well, although the UN presence wasn't nearly as profound as across the Atlantic, it was still intolerable. Heeding the historical failures of Napoleon and Hitler the UN didn't venture much beyond the Crimea.
China too was spared for the most part, the brunt of the UN incursion. Picked by the international bankers to be the next global superpower, China withdrew into itself to protect their Communist regime. Of the three largest superpowers, only the US suffered the constant harassment of the blue-helmeted UN troops in every nook and cranny.
Beck and his band of lunatics, purposely or otherwise, had propelled America and the rest of the globe into a Brave New World... one hideous and corrupted -- virtually unrecognizable. Is it so permeated with evil as to be irredeemable, or is there still hope? Only time and the tireless efforts of many courageous individuals can save her... If she can be saved at all. As always seems to be the case, the fate of the world hinges on what America does.
