Victor Okafor_Dr.Strange (httpswwwlinkedincominvict) | 2 comments "Before man knew sin, before angels fell, before the first name was carved into the Book of Judgment.Malphas waited."There are names that Heaven does not speak.There are beings so ancient, so entwined in the foundation of damnation, that even the oldest tongues have no true word for them. Malphas is one of them.Before the first betrayal in Eden, before Lucifer’s descent, Malphas existed. Not as a prince of Hell, not as a whisperer of temptation, but as something far worse.A judge. A sentinel. A keeper of debts.He did not beg for souls. He did not barter like lesser demons. He did not need to.For Malphas was never a tempter.He was a sentencer.When the first mortal struck down his brother in bloodshed, Malphas was there. Watching. Marking. Judging.When false prophets turned faith into power, when hands built altars not for worship but for dominion.Malphas counted every crime.And when those who were meant to die cheated the abyss, Malphas ensured that fate reclaimed its due.The Forgotten TrialThe scriptures do not speak of it.The Vatican erased it.But there was a trial.Once, long ago, when the first holy men realized that not all exorcisms were victories.They had cast out spirits. They had banished the cursed.But some…Some did not leave.Some did not fight.Some simply watched, and waited.For they were not possessing the living.They were marking them.One such man stood before the council a priest who had driven out darkness, only to find it had taken root inside him instead.His flesh bore no scars, no wounds.But his soul was claimed.He could hear his name spoken in the shadows, whispered in prayers that were never meant for salvation.And as he knelt before his brothers, he realized the truth:He had been sentenced.The Sin of SurvivalFor centuries, Malphas has waited in the spaces between light and shadow.He does not steal souls.He reclaims what should have already been lost.And now, in the age of fading faith, in the era of forgotten exorcisms he has found another name.One that was never meant to live past the night he faced the abyss.Gabriel Cross.The war is over. The time for choices is gone.Because Malphas is not coming to tempt him.He is coming to collect.Long before sin and scripture, Malphas existed not as a tempter, but as a judge of the damned. He does not seduce or deceive; he reclaims what was already lost. When the first murder was committed, Malphas watched. When faith was twisted into power, he counted every crime. He marked souls, not to possess them, but to ensure fate collected its debt. In a trial buried by the Church, a priest who believed he had cast out darkness realized too late that he had been marked instead. His soul was not free,it was sentenced. Now, in a world where faith is fading, Malphas rises once more to collect another soul that should not have survived. Gabriel Cross is not being tempted. He is being claimed.
