The Ridge (Book 1): After the Static

by Mark Mihalko

  Mr. Blake from the antique bookstore was able to provide me with two more passages.

  Et ecce oblitus sub signo signavi et vitio sceptrum ululatus Obruit auster testis flebile et luna in sanguinem. (6.12) Et infernus cataracta a fletu, et coram Patre risit blasphemus scitis nomen eius victimis et praedici posse. (6.13)

  And behold, under the sign of the forgotten seal, and, the tainted scepter, a howling wind overwhelmed the witness, and the moon wept tears of blood. (6.12) And those tears fell like a waterfall into the inferno, and the Father smiled at the sight of the blasphemer, for his name was known and his sacrifice foretold. (6.13)
