                But of course, he wasn’t actually dead. What he knew next
              was opening his eyes to see the court of Ketheroz, with all its
              arbiters assembled there as witnesses to his trial. Shackles bound
              his wrists and ankles. That amphitheatre chattered loudly until
              an entity more sublime than any other imaginable had begun to
              Etherealize on the lucent throne. Upon his crown were swirling
              the skies of many worlds. His face was like the visage of every
              noble monument ever erected. Oceanic luster spilled wherever
              his vision rested. The six Amezhah Zpentaz wreathed him like
              candles, comprising an honour guard. Yea! Amoun-Rah’s tone
              shook the cornerstones of that divine edifice:
                “Baal Abraxah, Alpha Arkhonh and Lord of Lucifer’s Aster.
              Thou art charged with treason beyond discernible reason.
              Indeed, thy sins be so severe that neither jury nor prosecutors
              are needed to ascertain thy guilt. What transpired is clear to
              everyone here. Hence shalt thee be stripped of supernatural
              powers and exiled to the lowest zone of Malkuth until thy star
              exhausts its natural elements. Perhaps then thou canst compre-
              hend the utility of humility. Know that when Lucifer expires,
              thou too wilt pass into the Infinite Interval. Hath thou any-
              thing to add or ask?”

                Brax paused pensively for a few seconds before adding
              and asking:
                “Although aware that this congregation owes me little leni-
              ency, I offer no apologies. Ayn Zoph Aur makes us all what we
              are. Yet do I plead for the privilege of visiting mine home in the
              zone of Typhareth a final time prior to undergoing Abstruction.”
                There was a general clamour disapproving of Brax’s entreaty
              but it went quiet when the Amezhah Zpentaz sounded a fanfare.
              Affably, Amoun answered:
