“Some of the conspiracies were even true. They saw correlations between cosmonaut Titov’s motion sickness in space and worldwide Vodka distilleries. Some of the conspiracies were obscure, without credibility, while others already had legions of believers. The construction of the Berlin Wall, begun on the East side of Germany, was finished scant days later. Lines were being drawn in brick and mortar. England was expected to join the European Common Market, fulfilling prophecies from Revelation.Each of the seated patrons scribbled in the spiral notebooks beside them. Three women, seemingly in their forties, walked among the couches, serving coffee, cleaning up and collecting pages. They were pleasant, professional and comforting, as are the best waitresses. Also, like those pre-eminent in their field, they made the organization hum.”Description of Vatican Apostolic Testis: Chapter 9 - Separate Views
““No. This one hurt us. He hurt many. He must feel the pain and agony he so loves.” Adam refused to move or to say anything more. He stared at the seeker and the seeker screamed. It continued to scream, and this time, Kosta could hear it. Adam had always been able to hear but now he didn’t care. Adam wanted to rid the world of this filth. The Darkness took control of Adam and reached out and obliterated the seeker, bit by bit. Though Kosta couldn’t see what Adam was doing, he caught glimmers of what was occurring. An avatar of Adam’s inner Darkness was slowly butchering the creature. Since he was still young, he could not destroy him all at once. Rather, it had to be accomplished in small increments. The torture was far worse than that which had been used to summon the seeker.”Adam showing why he is to be feared: Chapter 10 - Perspective
““I don’t know what you think you saw here. I’m not trying to convince you to come out, but I’m trying to keep you from hurting yourself. Whatever you do, do not tell anyone about this. At best, they will lock you up; at worst, they will get rid of you.” The man’s even-tempered tone calmed Brian, though he stayed hidden. “You’re dealing with things you do not understand and I cannot explain. Forget about what you think you saw. Let it remain a nightmare, which you occasionally recall. The reality is far worse than what you could imagine.” As the man got back into the cab and drove past Brian, he said, “This truth is far more terrible than your fiction.””Ordinary man unwittingly sees the extraordinary: Chapter 11 - Vantage
““Am I really cursed, like old Paula said? Damned, from the devil and from hell?” Adam asked evenly.“You’re blessed. You come from a preeminent family, the most respected from among the families of the Nobility.” Balzeer continued, “What does this Paula know of the devil? Does she know that he is an angel who was cast out and looked down upon by his heavenly fellows? That he is the eternal foe of the Catholics, with their white-bearded geriatric and His fair-haired second son?”“Am I then? Am I from hell?” Adam continued."You are not. You will rule it, but you’re not from there. You’re flesh and blood, like me, however, you’re also divine, like your father. You are Morningstar’s heir. Just as he now rules hell, so shall you,” Balzeer responded haughtily.”Balzeer McGrath, Supreme Tribunal, trying to appeal to his Redeemer, Adam: Chapter 12 - Fight, Fight!!
