653 - A Flea in Mikas's Beard

I'm running... scuttling through
a gigantic forest of golden trees growing thick enough that I cannot see
through them very far.  A gigantic pink
pillar bends the trees down and I run away but my way is blocked and the trees
are bent down so I am caught and pressed under them and then pinched up between
the gigantic squishy pink pillars.



I am raised out of the
forest of gold and I can see

652 - If You Die On Me...

My
brother was just finished his Ten Tens and I was jumping up and down and
cheering when I heard Virani-e yell that there was a dart.  Some asshole in the crowd shot Minis.  Jia went a funny colour and the Temple started making this noise.



As Idiesas grabbed Minis and dragged him into the Temple, my security captain
Janirias, grabbed me right up off the ground and stuffed me into a stone

651 - Come Back to Us

I
flung my gloves over my ears as the Temple started making this agonizing
shriek, loud enough to freeze everyone where they stood.   



Almost everyone.  Minis froze as though struck by lightning and
Idiesas, already moving, shoved past the Fenjitzae, the Imperial robe falling
to one side with a clatter, grabbed Minis and dragged him bodily back through
the doors of the Temple. Virani-e was

650 - Behold Arko, Our True Son.

I was cradled in a fiery
hand and was not burned. What I'd felt as agony, had been mostly fear. Fear of
sexuality.  Fear of passion. Fear of the
Father.  I would have slumped in relief
except I was held firmly.  I... was
uninjured, unimpaled.  I... was not hard
any longer.  If... I knew this.  If the God had wished me to come I would
have.  But my lesson from Him was the
threat of abusive

649 - Through Hope and Faith and Fire

I
burned.  I danced in fear and
elation.  What had happened in the
Imperial Chapel finally came searing back to mind.  I had been opened by the God, at least in
spirit. The dross in my soul had begun to run like hot wax.



Faiyal kofaer maeshin. The Temple shook with those words.  Did the building say them?  Did I say them?  My lips and tongue resonated with them but I
could not tell.  My
