Today Ed is at the Wale armory getting to know and understand General Adam Coleman. A little Rye Whiskey oils the wheels of progress.
THE GOD GAMES: Legend of Kor...Chapter Six
"Suppose I believe what you say, how do you propose to bring all of us together?" asked General Coleman.
"I have three friends; Glenna, Ann, and Thomas. We came to Kor on a spaceship. My friends are meeting with Lucy Prism, from the ERM, Miriam Lofts from the VRM, and Wills Haddon of the SRM. We are proposing a meeting of all four of you, on our space ship, in two days."
"All right, Ed, start from the beginning. Just who are you and what is your stake in such a meeting; in the uniting of representatives from all four countries?"
"I won my last life game and have experienced the three tiers of Heaven. Now I, with my friends, are energynauts who work for ONE and do his bidding.
"ONE saw the pain in the hearts of your people and sent us to investigate and listen to the prayers of all Korians. We are to help you win your war by supporting you and getting all four armies together in one band. The rest is up to you, whatever way you choose, we'll give you all the help we can and all the support."
Adam opened the bottom drawer of his desk and pulled out a bottle of rye whiskey. Turning around in his chair, he grabbed a pair of glasses from a shelf behind his desk and filled them to the brim with the rye.
"Here," he said, "this will warm you up!" He took a sip and then said, "We have lost over 500,000 people to Gog's men. Some were shot where they stood; some were carted off to Selve where I hear there are concentration camps and I've heard from my spies that there are huge crematoriums there also. My people are being exterminated.
"We have soldiers spread across the country, but we only have 5000 in total, so they cannot cover us as well as we need to be covered and we only have enough weapons for our soldiers; but most farmers have at least a shotgun, so that is in our favor.
"We Wales harvest our crops in large groups with the army guarding them," said Adam. "We have always had trouble with the Selves abducting our citizens to work in their gold and silver mines, so we have had trouble even before Gog came into power. Now we are overwhelmed.
"If you could help us by organizing our four resistance armies into one army, we would be very grateful.
"I have moved my family into Ento where I can keep a close eye on them, but everyone can't move into Ento.
"So, what is that weapon on your belt, and how does your belt work for you?"
"This is my operational belt. There are several buttons on it and, of course, my ray gun."
"What is a ray gun?"
"It shoots microwave rays which instantly cook an opponent from the inside out. It is a deadly weapon that I hope never to have to use. The buttons on my belt are to make me invisible or to summon help from my friends. There is also a button that is anti-gravitational and allows me to float and a button that propels me forward, backward, or up and down. Let me demonstrate my invisibility button." Whereupon, I pushed the invisibility button and promptly vanished from sight.
"Whoa their partner!" exclaimed Adam, "That's terrific! How useful that could be!"
"Would you like to join my army?"
"Yes, I would, that would be an honor."
Adam and I stood up, he saluted me and led me in a short pledge of allegiance to Wale. I saluted Adam back and repeated the pledge. We both saluted each other, and Adam told me that I was now a Lieutenant General in the Walean Army.
"Ed, can you tell me a little about your ship? What does it look like?"
"She is a crystal oblong, silver colored, and powered by the meeting of matter and anti-matter. We plan to have you meet us there in two days, and I will take you on a tour of the ship. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised when you see her. Right now she is invisible because our invisibility shield is up, so we don't worry about the wrong eyes seeing her."
"Well, I can hardly wait to see the ship. I cannot even imagine what she must be like. How fast does she go?"
"We travel at almost the speed of light."
"Fast!"
"Yes, she is."
"Are you staying here now, or what?"
"No, I'll be back tomorrow morning with an update and more information, but for now, I will return to the ship. Do you have any further questions for me before I go?"
"I have to admit that I don't have any more questions at this time, but tomorrow I may have a million. When do you think you'll be here?"
"I should be here by 7:00 a.m., is that a good time for you?"
"Yes, perfect. I'll show you the base when you return, and we'll have a Walean lunch for you so you can meet all of the officers stationed here."
Adam got up and walked around his desk and grabbed me up in a great bear hug.
"Thank you for coming to see me," said Adam. "I really appreciate your effort and your support. Please give your friends my regards, and please keep us in your prayers."
"My pleasure; I will see you tomorrow morning. Hold tight, we're going to work on a plan that will free you from the Selve oppression. It is all in ONE's hands now."
We shook hands a final time and then I pushed my invisibility button and thought my way back to the ship. I felt my mission had gone well and it was good to be home.
Tomorrow is once again poetry day, but on Monday we hear the story of a tragedy in Voun and meet Bond Boyd.
