The Council Up High

When the Grand Jury arrived, the Great hall was already filled with the presence of many beings of light. There were cherubs, seraphs, ophanims and all kinds of angels. There were fairies, demigods, fauns and other kinds of supernaturals. There were comets, nebulae, stars and other celestials.

As the Jury walk toward the thrones all beings began whispering to each other. The hall was immediately filled with noise that coagulated into what seems to be a white static. The hall custodian, known only by the name Allaj, picks up his gable and slams it onto the table in front of him. Everyone instantly fell silent.

"Let us all listen to the verdict." Allaj said with a booming voice.

Everyone moves their eyes on the direction of the thrones.

One member of the jury stands. The being is holding a shining golden scroll and a white scroll.

"Does the Jury have a verdict?" asked Allaj.

"Indeed", the Prime Jury answered. The Prime Jury then walked from the thrones and moves toward the pulpit.

"May I call on the defendant. OldFather, please step to the center." said the Prime Jury.

From the audience in front of the thrones, a being clad in brown robe and overrun with flowing grey beard stands up. The being called OldFather walks slowly to the center of the hall. OldFather is one of those beings considered as lords of nature and dwell in isolated mountains, rocks, and caves. In some cultures, he was called a troll.

The case of OldFather is a classic one. With his powers, he created a world from the earth. He created beings to steward this world. But he made the world hostile such that his creations consistently fought with each other to their destruction.

His own creatures then began to complain, from Job to Moses to the Apostles. And the Grand Jury heard them all. Hence this trial.

"I am here." OldFather said.

"OldFather", said the Prime Jury. "You have been accused of Abuse of Power. Let all present here be known of this decision and how it came to be."

The Prime Jury then opens the golden scroll and raises it above his head. The scroll released a very bright light outward and shone over all beings in the Great Hall. All beings are suddenly aware of the decision.

"You will be stripped of your power and be exiled atop the asteroid Alkatro and sentenced to stay there for the remainder of your existence."

The custodian Allaj then slams his gable. "Abide!"

Two shining light shapes then appeared on both sides of OldFather. Then, in an instant the lights were gone as well as OldFather.

The Prime Jury then picks up the other scroll, the white one. He opens the scroll and speaks.

"From this day on, I appoint Yhvh, of the seraphs, to be the new God of the world. You shall bring new order to this world. Let this scroll be your guide."

Prime Jury raised the white scroll. It transforms into a white orb of light and flies away from his hands. It flies around the hall as if looking for something. Then it zooms on one direction. It flies to the searph's group and halts.

One seraph steps towards the light slowly. The light just stayed there. The seraph walks closer to the light then starts to reach his hand to the light. As soon as he touches it, the orb bursts into a majestic light and illuminates the hall. Then the light disappeared along with the seraph.

"The Grand Jury has spoken. This session is finished." said the Prime Jury.

The custodian Allaj then slams his gable. "Abide!"

Atop the hill dedicated to skulls, three men considered as rebels were each crucified to wooden crosses. The man in the middle suddenly exclaims "Father, Father, why have you forsaken me?"

A few moments later the earth shook and the rocks split. The OldFather's spirit has left the world.
