The unfinished letter

Divine Zilla,

It is Annubis who writes to you.  I know that you have no wish to hear from any who are not chief among us, but I believe the circumstances will excuse this behavior.

By now you must have heard the unfathomable news.  Our fortress, long a bulwark against the Godless scum, has fallen to Regime infiltrators.  It pains me to say this, but Legion, my own Overseer, stands revealed as the most heinous of traitors.

I am resolved.

With my portion of Indulger’s form and my gift, I can direct his actions.  Tomorrow I will cause him to commit crimes unforgivable, even for wavering souls such as Legion’s.  Perhaps a strike upon the nursery, or the slaughter of the healers.  I will stir the faithful to action by making plain the infamy that I know lies within his heart.

Please represent the truth of the matter to Lord Zeus.  There is a fair likelihood that I may fall in this endeavor, and I would not wish to be denied paradise on account of any other’s telling of my deeds.

I will do this terrible thing TO my sisters, FOR my sisters.  To wake them up.  To make them see.

It is the surest form of virtue, indeed, I should be lauded for the clarity of
