I’m now on Magisterial Planet Seven. The trip over was quick and comfortable. The Service Entourage attended to all my needs with grace and kindness.
The atmosphere here is electric with hope and anticipation. Everyone I’ve met is longing for the day when Totality is once more under Chuwl’s perfect care.
My room at Base Camp is small but all I need is here: comfortable bed, small table, writing materials, and a sturdy chair.
When I next hear from Olam I will be rested and ready to go.
Goodnight Rohi my Guide,
Kellen
Prison Log - Day One
Non-conformity prisoner Kellen arrived on Prison Transport Sixteen Forty Seven. The crew and guards are understandably short tempered after the thirty day trek from Non-Conformity Planet Twelve.
The gathering of Non-conformists was bloody and difficult as they hid underground and had extensive tunnel networks. Their phantom leader Olam was not captured. Most in Magisterial circles believe him to be a myth, or a ghost of an idea rather than a man.
Prisoner Kellen is delusional, as are most of the Non-Conformists, however she’s on another level altogether. She calls the guards her ‘entourage’ and her sparse dirt cell a 'well equipped room'. Her face fairly beams with its own light and she refuses to see reality as it is.
She only has the usual amenities: a piece of burlap, a bucket and one daily meal of dried bread and stale water. We’ll see how long she keeps up the charade.
Tomorrow she stands before the Magistrate.
Zelb
Dear Rohi,
I had a most productive morning. I met with the local Magistrate. She’s dedicated to helping me start my next Mission. Olam will reward her most graciously I’m sure.
I spent the rest of the day meditating on Deah’s teachings and reciting his words. I do believe my constant companion, Zelb, (the one assigned to meet my every need) is preparing for a Mission of his own. I heard him whispering his own truths.
Tonight’s dinner was a veritable feast! Perfectly roasted chicken, herb infused paella, fresh greens with a lemony dressing and, topping it all off, a lovely chocolate soufflé. I offered to share with Zelb however he wanted me to enjoy it all.
Goodnight Rohi my Guide. I’m sure tomorrow brings my departure and the beginning of my next Mission. I’m so excited I’m not sure I’ll even sleep!
Kellen
Prison Log - Day Two
Prisoner Kellen stood before the Magistrate without even the whiff of a defense. Her only words were blasphemous and treasonous, reciting forbidden texts and ideas. I cannot record them however it was the usual rantings of her fellow Non-Conformists filled with delusions of loving all, forgiving all, not being a true citizen of Totality.
Treason! Totality under The Supreme Magistrate, is our future, our guide, our only hope. All must conform.
Prisoner Kellen is scheduled for Dematerialization first light tomorrow.
Zelb
Dear Rohi,
Today is the day! I’m so ready to be Translated and take on the next Mission. Zelb has so kindly given me the departure time. Only one hour till I see Olam face to face and receive my Mission.
Thank you Rohi my Guide for always being closer than a brother and stronger than I.
Kellen
Prison Log - Day Three
Prisoner Kellen was Dematerialized at precisely 7:00 am this morning.
At 6:00 am I slapped her awake informing her of her fate. She embraced me with joy. I shoved her away and told her to get ready to meet Nothingness. She thanked me for my gentle care and concern. I spat on her.
6:50 am I retrieved her and we marched to Evanese. She sang some blasphemous song along the way. When we arrived Dematerializer was present and armed. She embraced him, backed up to the wall with her arms spread wide, and began singing again. Her face shone so bright I looked away.
Dematerializer pulled the trigger. Kellen was no more. We didn’t nod in satisfaction to one another, as is our custom. In fact we didn’t look at one another at all.
I can’t get Kellen’s blasphemous song out of my head.
Zelb
