It was another
routine day in heaven, I stood on a high stool singing vehemently as I led
the
hourly worship as
the leader of the cherubim, I am not an arch, but I had the strength and
beauty of voice, the
softest of heart and the radiant of faces. There was a feeling He loved me
a
little more than the
others, I always walk with the confidence and chasm of the chosen, ‘cause
even my name was
special…… ‘THE BRINGER OF LIGHT’…. He called me ‘LUCIFER’.
I was loved by
the heavenly beings, I was adored by the angels, and trusted by allies.
“lucifer!” I heard
my name as I exited the throne room.
I spurned around and
found ‘baal’ making towards me in rather hurried steps. He was one of
my closest friend
and ally. ‘baal’ had stern features, a hush voice as he was just a guard in
the
throne room.
“have you noticed He
wasn’t around today again?” he continued
“yes I noticed,
Micheal hath told me He was in his inner sanctum, He is creating more
living
beings” I answered
him in a rather dismissive tone. I didn’t want this discussion, I knew
what
was coming, they all
knew the Chosen went with him and not me.
“beings like us?” he
asked enthusiastically
“I wasn’t told” I
answered quickly to hasten the discussion.
“hey baal, hey
lucifer” a voice called from behind as I turned quickly to find ‘azazel’ one of
my
allies trying to
make way through the dispersing scores of angels towards where we stood.
“azazel, how was
thine service?” I stopped to ask
“it was usual, but I
couldn’t help but notice thou art distraught” he said as he reached out
for
an apple that
cringed from the tree above.
“was i?” I asked
with raised eye brows.
“I was trying to
make out what type of being the Almighty is creating, that he hath stayed
in
his inner sanctum
with the chosen, its been 4 days and he hasn’t rested” I quickly added as
we
made towards Eden.
“with the chosen?”
baal asked rhetorically.
“I think he like the
chosen more than thou eh?”azazel added rather sarcastically.
“no!” I screamed…
not realizing how high my pitch was, I was not going to have it… this
discussion, no..
both azazel and baal were startled as they paused in their tracks,
obviously
perplexed by the
venom of the reply.
No one said
anything for a while
“I will go thereof
to the inner sanctum tomorrow” I said relieving the tension, as I slowly
trudged away……
.
The next morning
service, I curiously starred at His seat throughout the worship service, with
an
unknown emotion
creeping out of my being. I had to do something, I had to know what’s
going
on, I was his
favorite.
The service passed,
but I lingered longer looking to avoid azazel and baal. As the angels
dispatched I made
way to Eden, I needed time alone, I had not understood that emotion
yesterday, it has
never happened before on the firmament, I trudged between roots, kicking
softly little
litters I came across with head bent and mind adrift, when I heard it’…….
‘the
whisper’…..
It spoke in my
head, I couldn’t make out the words, but it was obviously beckoning me
deeper
into Eden, ….. and I
obliged.
.
The voice by now was
clearer as I walked into eden, it was persuasive as was charming, leading
me directly to the
foot of the ‘forbidden’….
“eat this fruit” the
faint voice spoke in my head
“that is the
forbidden, and I cannot eat thereof” I said and turned to make out of eden.
“but the Almighty
eats of me” it came again persistently
“He is the Almighty,
and I am only but a messenger” I retorted
“the Chosen ate of
me too” it said with a sense that could have knocked me of my resistance.
Of all my obedience,
He loved the Chosen more, I stood for a while in disbelief and ‘that
earlier
emotion I hadn’t
understood.
“eat me and I will
make thou see” it added
I motioned towards
the fruit slowly in an almost rhythmic manner to pluck of it………..
.
I was hurrying out
of eden, in had to see azazel and baal, they need to know what has
happened and I had
to tell them quickly.
“hey, where hurriest
thou?” azazel asked with a raised eyebrow.
“come with me
quickly, both of you” I urged them both.
We walked into eden
, directly into the path of the forbidden. I could see the un easy in
their
eyes, but I couldn’t
tell them now, no.., they should see it.
.
They starred at the
fruit I ate with disbelief, as I tried to convince them I know things only
He
knows and I could
transform to anything I want to be.
I threw a fruit at
at both of them. Azazel first then baal………..
.
I stood at the door
of the inner house, I starred at its magnificence. I had not said the truth
to
micheal when I told
him the Almighty called unto me, But I felt ok with it. This was the first
time
I had not told the
truth.
I fizzled about in
the inner house, then I came across a golden chrysanthemum bursting with
bloom, then I saw
‘it’…… ‘one of the ornaments the Almighty made us fear’ because its power
could consume us, it
was hidden in a corner, in an old dented rusty bucket, but it shone with
defiance of its
quality…. As it was pure.., it was gold…. It was ‘THE TRIDENT’.
I walked to it,
raising it slowly.. I felt powerful, I felt great…I felt.. like.. HIM!
The tale: its power
cannot overwhelm the almighty.
.
Outside the
sanctuary I wandered what effectiveness with craft I could employ. Will I be
more
powerful than the
Chosen? Who will I use such powers on?
