Today we follow Glenna as she proceeds to Voun and her meeting with Miriam Lofts, a judge on the Voun Supreme Court.
THE GOD GAMES: Legend of KOR...Chapter Seven
When Ed finished speaking, we all thanked him for doing so well, and then took a short refreshment break. Glenna and I made hot chocolate and put a plate of peanut butter cookies on the table.
After the break we all felt stronger and we asked Glenna to tell us her story.
GLENNA:
Glenna smiled and said that she had had a wonderful visit with Miriam, and then began her story.
The land of Voun is beautiful, with steep mountains and deep ravines. I pushed the button on my belt to float and wound my way through the mountain passages. The valleys and fields were covered with wild flowers of every color and variety.
I came to a salt mine and watched the activity as the Vouns cut and shaped the salt for sale. I sat on a large, flat rock to watch them and ate the figs, rye bread, and pomegranate juice I had brought with me.
After lunch, I crossed the Marbis River at a bridge and was almost to the outskirts of Piers-the capital of Voun-when I saw a figure walking through the heather. I quickly stopped, still invisible, and watched this gentle, stooping figure walking the almost invisible paths across the mountain side. I heard her speak, "Oh, Heavenly Father, what can I do to preserve my people and help out the Emons and Wales-especially the Wales. We have a lot of dedicated soldiers in the VRM, but where do we go from here? Gog's men are ruthless and have no natural feelings-it seems to me-how can we stand alone against them?"
I knew instinctively that this woman must be Miriam, and so I walked 100 feet in front of her and turned my invisibility off. Then I began to softly whistle and walk in her direction. She looked up startled and gasped, "Who are you?" and immediately stopped walking.
"Do not be afraid," I said, "my name is Glenna and I didn't realize that anyone else came to this spot to walk and think."
"My name is Miriam; I am a judge in Voun. I come here to work out my problems and legal issues."
"As it happens, I am looking for a woman by the name of Miriam Lofts, who is also a judge in Piers."
"Oh!" gasped Miriam, "but I am Miriam Lofts, who are you?"
"Miriam, could we sit down somewhere and talk?"
Miriam led me over to a cluster of smooth rocks and we both sat down and stared at each other. It was warm on the side of the mountain and there were flowers of pink and purple covering the hills. I saw a Kimodo Dragon-like creature lumber by on his way to a distant watering hole.
I spoke first. I stretched out my hands, palms up, and said, "Do not be afraid Miriam, I have come from God to help you, and all of Voun, defeat the dictator, Gog. I have been told to seek you out specifically because of your character and because you are the leader of the VRM. I, and three of my friends, Ed, Thomas, and Ann are energynauts sent by ONE in answer to the prayers of your people. We have come to Kor on a space ship from our ancient home in Heaven.
"Our purpose is to get the VRM, ERM, SRM, and the Walean Army, speaking together and planning together for an offensive against Gog. We are not here to make the decisions or choices, only to guide you and support you."
"I don't know what to say," said Miriam. "I'm not quite sure of your meaning or purpose. Who did you say you are?"
"We, like you, are children of God (ONE), we live in Heaven after winning our last life games, and have been made energynauts sent out by God to help answer the prayers of his children."
"I'm overwhelmed by all you say," said Miriam. "I have never heard of such ideas. What else do you have to say?"
"My friends and I have lived hundreds of life games, but we only won our last game, which was on Earth. We now live in heaven eternally and do whatever tasks God has in mind for us. Today, God has sent us to Kor to help answer your people's prayers."
"What is that belt you have around your waist? Is that a gun?"
"This is my operational belt, and this is a ray gun. It works on nano batteries to create microwaves that cook an assailant from the inside out; a very nasty death."
"Would you use the ray gun against us?"
"Never. We hope to never have to touch them at all!"
A sweet but cool breeze came flowing around the hills and Miriam stood up. "Let's move on into Piers where it is warm and we are guarded better. I'd like to hear more about your ideas."
Tomorrow Glenna and Miriam tour Piers and continue their discussion.
