Prologue:

i. Intro

This is the tale of Hamar’s fight for freedom before he’s forced to crown The Fiend as King of all realms and Ruler of every man and tribe on earth, – or else be destroyed himself.

And for that battle Hamar needs power greater than any mortal man has ever known!

Incredibly, does the wretched land of Israel hold out that hope?

With only a window of time left to escape, Hamar must locate their Jewish Rescuer as soon as He arrives with powers fabled to be beyond all others.

But to find him Hamar must first kidnap a renegade Jewish scribe and his two twelve year-old nephews and force them into the quest, into a realm too much for their bodies, – or their souls.

ii. As You Begin

First you must enlarge.

To see this tale you must imagine power beyond anything known on Earth. So forget whatever walls and floor are around you, lose all household limits. Take up a viewing place far outside planet Earth and, there, look away to enormities…

Start with the whole map of Space coming alive in front of you. Perceive of super-novas blasting out their dying breath in great clouds of light. See dark curtains of stellar dust hanging motionless in place, newborn micro-stars spinning furiously on their infant way, snowstorms of galaxies lighting the blackness into grey, and each galaxy spiralling for light-years with their white arms flung out.

The clock of the Universe is ticking away, ticking away, each atom tracking along precisely on time.

And then see it happen…

Suddenly a colossal pulse of energy bursts out from the hub of the Cosmos! It fires through all objects, heading toward a far galaxy that is no more than a pinpoint among a fog of galaxies, a lone galaxy in whose thin arm a tiny blue Earth is doing circles.

That giant pulse is pure SPIRIT, its invisible rim expanding faster than light and with a greater purpose than that of any stars!

Sent by a vast Mind at its centre whose intention can wait no longer, the force of that pulse triggers horrors and wonders in the affairs of Earth which have secretly been lining up for eons.

Calamities start, and a distorting warp in the majical realms over the globe, –  the first steps of an unspeakable war, and an incredible triumph!

You will have to come back down, – far, far down – to begin to see the human players just as the first Spirit wave hits.

It surges on a boy mystic left behind with no family, a Rabbi’s son in the midst of a family split, a sad young couple doomed to wander… and onto the DEVIL HIMSELF.

iii. Entering-in

The Middle-east of two millennia ago lies spread before you. You are entering the market town of Al Musar late on a hot Spring morning. You’re there just in time to meet the skinny hounded boy, Hamar Mi-sha-Baltshazar.

A furnace-hot breeze is making its way down the market lanes, drying out stacks of wool rugs already too hot to touch, strumming the ropes of garlics, swirling flies off melon slices browning in rows. Everywhere, robed figures are hopping the ditch of stinking water, their sandals flattening lumps of camel dung to chaff as they go about their business.

When you can see the scene, when your nose almost flares at that spicy, sewery breeze as it passes, you are into the tale… the power of that giant pulse now working on you.
