Synopsis "The Flaming Sword (in English)"
Since the beginning of the Neolithic revolution, a pervasive phantom has haunted humanity. It neither rustles nor rattles, nor moans upon the moors. Rather, its apparition is accompanied by the continuous, unbroken rasp of the human race, who, unified in dread, have emitted one solemn plea to a world rent asunder by evil and the abandonment of reason. That sound is the question why? All people have asked this, when evil overtakes them. Formal attempts have been carefully deliberated, for twelve thousand years, to resolve this gripping human dilemma: why is there wrong and suffering. And more tormentingly, why, if there is a God, does evil exist? How can it exist? Many have the answer, only to be turned away. Now, it can be answered. Everyone has heard the story of Adam and Eve, their fall from God, and the angel posted at Paradise to turn them away. The story of fallen, broken man is well known, and his journey through a world wracked with madness and pain is well documented. But what if the real story was skipped over by the narrative? What if the angel at the gates of Paradise was only a figurehead of something much larger? The Flaming Sword is a guard to a gate: but the guard is more than a mere angel, and what it guards is more than the perfect place. It guards perfection itself. Like the angel at Eden, it is programmed to attack whatever nears it charge, including mankind. Be warned, and take heed: for the answer may be far more haunting than the question ever dreamed.
