Why does anyone do anything? Belief. A belief that they are right and just in their actions. Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son, Isaac, because he believed that God had commanded it. To kill your son is unthinkable. A crime. But if you are acting in the belief that your God, your supreme deity whom you must obey, has demanded it of you, is it still a crime?

"There is no greater power on earth than story." Will paced the length of the room. "People think boundaries and borders build nations. Nonsense - words do. Beliefs, declarations, constitutions - words. Stories. Myths. Lies. Promises. History." - The Diviners by Libba Bray

       Evie raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t we play these roles already? A few months ago?”        “That was pretend. I mean on the level. Evie O’Neill, would you do me the honor of becoming Mrs. Lamb Chop?”        Evie could scarcely catch her breath.        “If you’re pulling my leg, Sam Lloyd, I swear on all things holy…”        But his face didn’t have even a trace of a smirk.        Evie beamed. “Well, I’m telling you right now that you’ll have to find me a better ring. I am pos-i-tutely not wearing this one.”        “Does that mean…?”        Evie laughed and threw her arms around Sam’s neck. “Yes! Yes, Sam Lloyd. I will marry you!”        “Hot dog!” Sam lifted Evie up and twirled her around.

“the time is now. they are coming,” isaiah said, drifting back into dreams, his last word barely a whisper: “diviners.”
