HISTORY OF THE END OF THE WORLD 7

“ A battle, she was part of?”, Laura was shocked. She had just fled the urban battleground, called Amsterdam.

The Master waved to them to relax. He continued, “The final battle is about to begin. The point of no return has passed; this world is coming to an end. And we play an important in this struggle to bring about a new Jerusalem.”

He looked them both into the eyes. “And these...”, he manipulated the cards Laura brought him. “.. will be a major factor in the coming confrontation.”

The Master got out of his chair and started walking around, seemingly at random. He picked up discs, leaflets and book, just to put them on another pile. After throwing some wood on the fire, after checking the door, he sat down again.

“I secured the room, No-one will hear or understand a word said here. The things I will say to you today, have to stay secret. I promise to answer all your questions, but first I will give you some info about the cards; its origin and its destiny.”

He looked Laura straight into the eyes. You can leave if you want to. If you decide to stay, I can promise you the participation in an unique worldwide conspiracy. A conspiracy to create a world of our own.”

Laura didn't hesitate for a moment.

“I want to go on.”

“That's what I hoped and expected.:, the Master said. “El will instruct you abut our way of life at the Academy and the daily routine. You can stay here, if you want to.”

Laura nodded impatiently. She wanted to continue. She felt the pulsating energy of the deck of cards and thought to hear distant voices.
