More About My New Novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath: More About Why Dumlat Created His AI Company, Origin

The previous post, where invisible ‘spirit being’ Morwenna witnesses a secret meeting between Origin Company owner Dumlat and a new shareholder, gives Dumlat’s family background, satanic roots, and why he wanted to create a company devoted to AI, artificial intelligence. And partially explained why he calls himself Dumlat, which is not his real name. In this post, Morwenna, as a human, not an invisible spirit being, questions her Origin company human resources boss, Rita—who had been friends with Dumlat during their college days—about if what Morwenna believed regarding Dumlat’s evil agenda using AI to control ‘the masses.’ And why Rita, a Christian, was hired by a Satanist. The snippet, from Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath (copyright © 2026 by Deborah Lagarde) is below:

 

But it wasn’t just the name of that ‘holy’ book that concerned Morwenna. The fact that Dumlat was the son of a man, Otto Franks, that she knew committed many evil deeds including rape, caught her attention.

 

(She then mentioned one of the evil deeds Otto Franks committed, rape against a burgeoning movie star)

 

Further, Morwenna also believed that many children of top media moguls such as Franks were raised to follow that same evil lifestyle, and Dumlat, Levitt Franks, may also have been abused by his parents, which could be the reason Dumlat ensconced himself in the online gaming world and then created computer generated images as if he was creating his own gaming world. His own fake world he would rule over, which would lead him into the idea of creating his world that would rule over reality using artificial intelligence.

 

Morwenna soon came to the conclusion that she was correct regarding Dumlat’s motivation to create such a fake ‘reality.’ Having learned about a month after she witnessed that  conversation between Dumlat and the shareholder that Origin was going to move to Texas in March, 2026, she met with Rita on the pretext that she would quit her job when the move took place. However, the true reason she had to meet with Rita was to find out if her thoughts about Dumlat’s scheme were true.

 

“You once told me, Rita, that Dumlat was heavily into computer games and that the games, the computer generated images in these games, so fascinated Dumlat that he began creating his own gaming images which he would use for wanting to create his own online gaming scenarios that would capture the attention of game creators who would buy his gaming ideas—”

“Yes,” Rita answered, “That was really what caused Dumlat to invest as much as he could into founding Origin back in 2020. It was the perfect time, what with the plague that occurred then, where many young folks felt forced to stay indoors so as not to catch the disease. Never mind that the so-called plague was a set-up by the rulers of this world, including the Rockfords—”

“Who Dumlat is related to, correct?”

“Yes, on his mother’s side,” Rita nodded. “So, Dumlat knew it was a fake plague, and knew he had this golden opportunity to create a gaming and artificial online platform to create his start-up company, Origin. Since we knew each other from college, he wanted to hire me to manage human resources as employees are called. That way, I could see what he was up to using his artificial reality, his true scheme, for I sensed he wanted as much power and control over humanity as he could connive his way into and also sensed he was up to no good. Like his mentors including the Rockfords and folks like Otto Franks who revel in evil deeds.”

“So you know his plan is to create a fake reality that the so-called masses will desire to live in because they buy into the notion that they will have some control over the fake reality they will create using gaming and artificial intelligence and live happily in their fake world instead of understanding their fake world is nothing but an alternative to a truthfully empty reality.”

“Yes. He wants the masses to believe they create a happy world with fake artificial beings, since he will convince the masses that to not partake in his gaming scheme will lead them to emptiness, when in fact he wants them to live in the truly empty reality they will in fact create thinking it is a fulfilling life. In other words, he wants complete control over humanity, and complete denial of the Creator, God!”

The mention of God caused Morwenna to ask this question—“Does Dumlat know you believe in Jesus Christ?”

Rita smiled and cocked her head in anticipation of this question from Morwenna. “Yes, but he thinks I am not really committed to Christ, and, thus, he thinks I work for him because I know him from college and because he thinks I’m into gaming technology, since I majored in online technology at (college). I also suspect that he thinks that by hiring a Christian to manage human resources that it makes him seem to appear to be a person that is not anti-Christ. In other words, his hiring a Christian like me is just a façade o he won’t appear to be evil, as he truly is.”

Morwenna nodded, thinking, That is what he told that shareholder—he hired a Christian so that he would fool Christians into thinking he was okay with their religion. Deception, just deception.

Hopefully, the next post, either from Chapter Three or Chapter Four, will be posted sometime later in January. Have a blessed New Year!

More About My New Novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath: About Dumlat, the Evil Owner of Origin AI Company…And Merry Christmas!

Since I want to wish readers a Merry Christmas, I decided to post this short snippet from Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath today, Christmas Eve. I’ll be too busy tomorrow to post it on Christmas Day.

The snippet begins Chapter Three, which follows the Shareholder meeting Origin AI company owner and CEO Dumlat posted in the previous snippet post here, whereby Dumlat is questioned by a new shareholder, who happens to share much of what Dumlat believes. The shareholder, a man, asks about Dumlat’s history and why he calls himself Dumlat, which is not his real name.

From the beginning of Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath, copyright © 2025 Deborah Lagarde:

After the meeting, Dumlat converses with a Shareholder

“I was told by another shareholder that Dumlat is not your real name.” The man was a new key shareholder who had just attended his first key shareholder meeting. “Can you tell me your real name?”

Dumlat smiled and then answered. “Levitt Franks.”

Shock, for the Franks family was well known to be related to one of the most elite banking dynasty families—the Rockfords, who used Mr. Y—Yakimoro—as their front man. “Oh my God— Really? You are related to the Rockfords?” The man’s eyes popped wide open in amazement.

“Yes. My mother is a daughter of theirs. Before marrying my father, Otto Franks, her trust fund was worth two hundred billion dollars. Her fortune enabled my father to buy his way into the top of the Hollywood movie mogul chain with Tantamount Pictures. It was this use of my family’s huge fortune that allowed me to start up Origin, and it was my family’s connection to images and movies and scripts that caused me to create many CGI images and videos based on those images that my father taught me how to create. Which is why I basically own and control Origin.”

Delight entered the mind of the new shareholder, for he too was into artificial intelligence and controlling the masses using it. But then he thought about why did Levitt Franks re-name himself ‘Dumlat’?

“So, do you call yourself ‘Dumlat’ to hide your connection to one of the most powerful families on Earth?”

“You could put it that way. My family, all of it, are in fact power-seekers, addicted to controlling money and love it! We are consumers of blood at every meal—” Haughty laugh.

“Satanists?”

“Yes. We commit what some call evil because we seek power and money and pleasure, and control over the useless masses who we use to our advantage. And I call myself ‘Dumlat’ because there is a set of texts, religious ones, that seeks to destroy that so-called ‘God’ and that so-called ‘son’ of his, that Jesus Christ garbage.”

“The set of texts is called—”

“I cannot reveal to you or anyone the name of these set of texts. But they are indeed anti-Christ and inspired by the god I worship. There are other texts and verses in this holy book that oppose evil, but the set of texts that inspired me are only those that oppose Christ.”

The other man nodded, not with agreement, but with understanding. Further, the man would not concern himself with the name of this so-called ‘holy book.’

So why was this anti-Christ Dumlat connected to Rita, who aids his AI-cause and is Christian? He uses her as a cover for his anti-Christ beliefs, for he does not want ‘the masses’ to know he is devilishly allied with THE anti-Christ, Satan, also called Corion by some of his associates.

Morwenna, who was invisible during the meeting, remained invisible as she witnessed the conversation between Dumlat and the shareholder. Further, she had angelic spirit being intuition as to the name of that ‘holy book.’

Then she heard one of the Tooters tell her this: “Do not reveal the name of this book to anyone, please, Morwenna. The texts that inspired Dumlat into satanic thinking are not based on any religion, but on the evil some in that religion partake in. All religions, including Christianity, have to some extent through flawed humanity adopted doctrines that were never meant to be adopted.”

She replied, “Will do. As some Christians say, ‘Christ, not religion’.”

I do not know when I will post next what with Chapter Three being a “wip” as many authors use that term, meaning “work in progress” (I don’t know an author who does not use the term “wip”!), but hopefully shortly after New Year’s Day. In fact, the snippet posted above was just completed a couple of days ago.

More About My New Novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath: The Plot to Tale Over the World Using Artificial Intelligence Apps and Operating Systems (Part Two)

In the previous post about two weeks ago, a main novel character, Morwenna, who has returned to Earth as a human—the spirit being set by angels to infiltrate the evil tech company called Origin as an administrative assistant with knowledge of several foreign languages—has stated at the end of the Part One snippet that she was there to discover what Origin and its head, named Dumlat, were up to, using artificial intelligence and a new operating system that would pretty much end the privacy and freedom of humanity…for his desire to control the world and institute a ‘mark of the beast’-type system for the sake of his evil ‘god,’ Corion (my Satan-like fictional character). Further, while Morwenna has become human again, she is also able to—as the angels will it on God’s orders—revert back to an invisible spirit being such that Dumlat and his company and stock-holding cohorts would not know she was listening and watching what they do or say at a special meeting Dumlat creates to lay out his ‘plan’ to take over the world, needing approval by his cohorts to carry out his plan. The fictional ‘plan’ he is trying to enforce is based on the World Economic Forum’s ‘own nothing and be happy’ scenario: by using various artificial intelligence apps and systems, the person desiring to ‘be happy’ can create his or her own little artificial world with AI ‘friends’ and ‘lovers’ or whatever to bring about artificial ‘happiness,’ all the while being enslaved in a fake world surveilled by ‘the beast system.’ For his or her ‘convenience.’

In the snippet below (copyright © 2025 Deborah Lagarde), Dumlat lays out exactly that ‘convenience’ ‘compliance’ that he believes all if not most humans will take part in for their ‘happiness.’ Their enslavement and emptiness is more like it! The snippet ends Chapter Two of The Prodigal Band Aftermath:

An Introductory Look into My Up-Coming Novel, the Prodigal Band Aftermath

Beginning tomorrow, Sunday, September 7, 2025, I will be “away from computer” several days, so I wanted to post an introductory look into my up- and-coming novel based on both The Prodigal Band Trilogy and The Murder Rule. Broadly, the entire novel will feature the outcomes of the members of the prodigal band Sound Unltd as to their given missions-of-God, and the “aftermath” of those mission outcomes. Various so-called “end times” “prophetic” scenarios play somewhat into the novel, but I cannot say for sure what “the great tribulation” in the Book of Revelation will look like or when it will happen–only God knows for sure. I do not….but, I can speculate…. And since so many big tech oligarchs seem to be in play these days with their artificial intelligence (AI) programs, it seems to me that these folks and their programs (including that abomination called ‘transhumanism’…like the Days of Noah as Christ mentioned in various Gospels, when fallen angels mated with the daughters of men to produce ‘giants’ (aka nephalim)….not exactly human, right?)….these folks and their programs will likely play out in the actual “end-times.”

In the following snippet that opens Chapter One is included the novel’s narrator, pop culture pundit Lloyd Denholm (who narrated The Prodigal Band) and the prodigal band’s manager, Joe Phillips, under a fake name since he faked his own death in Part Three of The Murder Rule. The time-frame is the present: September, 2025. The snippet is below, and the event harkens back to the opening of The Prodigal Band, a jet explosion that the prodigal band survived–only this time, the outcome of a similar explosion was different. Below is the snippet (© 2025 Deborah Lagarde):

A Future Novel? Hmmmmmm….

It has been a few weeks since my last post, but that is because I have not been able to decide what the next post would be—another snippet post, or something completely different?

This will be something different, because over the last couple of weeks (while busy with other stuff), thoughts or inspirations have entered my mind regarding a possible new novel, but related to previous novels (most likely, another spin-off of The Prodigal Band Trilogy, as The Murder Rule is).

After completing the third novel in the trilogy, The Prodigal Band, I considered writing an “aftermath” type novel explaining what happens after the climactic events of this novel—after the band rescues keyboard-synthist Bry’s wife Mo from the evil satanically possessed Mark Besst who was about to impale her, the satan-figure, Corion, captures Besst within the evil red crystal the evil one uses to capture human souls. Further, the good spirit being used by God’s angels, the Tooters, called Morwenna, returns “home” to heaven, her missions having been accomplished, as she lets her employers, singer Erik and his wife, Ger, know via a note she left for them.

But, then what? Is there more to this story? The narrator of this novel, pop culture pundit Lloyd Denholm, surmises at the end of the novel that the prodigal band members, given “missions of God” by the Tooters, will complete their missions and spend eternity in Heaven, being “good and faithful servants.”

Thus, I have been thinking how this “aftermath” plays out. The six band members complete their missions, and pass on at some point, souls in Heaven. However, what is Heaven really like? Is it that “void” I’ve had them in, a white, timeless, soundless, sight-less, void that contains “dots” or “lines” as they move through the void? (Note: refer to Chapter Eleven of The Prodigal Band.) The Bible mentions “streets of gold,” “crystal seas,” and other beauty, but still…what does it look like for sure? What does God look like…after all, the Book of Genesis says God made man in His—actually, “our” image—while the Gospel of John Chapter One says “the Word” (Christ) was with God and was God. Thus “our” image…but still, what do these “images” look like? What does the Judgment Seat (Book of Revelation) look like? What does the “accuser,” Satan, look like…and does he have “devil horns”?

The other possibility is an “aftermath” predicting the “end times” narrated by one of the novel characters, possibly one from The Murder Rule, with a scenario of how the next few years historically and spiritually plays out, for we do seem to be entering what looks to be very dangerous times, wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places…for instance, several in my area north of here, possibly due to oil fracking (after all, north of me is the Permian Basin, where the oil producing industry is huge, likely the largest in the US). And all those preachers predicting end-times events (such as the timing of ‘the rapture,’ and more…only God knows, right?).

So that, hopefully soon, I will be inspired, somehow, to begin writing the next novel, for it seems to me that time is getting short.

Happy Resurrection Day, Easter, Passover…Call It What You Will

Or what God wills…

This will be a short post, but I wanted to tell the reader the message in the title of this post. Because the message really is this: look to the Man who died on the cross and then rose from the dead for salvation, in a world where any other salvation is hard to find, where depression is rampant, where sickness abounds, and where there are many who need a guiding hand. Where politics seems to screw everything up, because politics will not save you. US president Trump is doing some good things…seems all presidents and national leaders do some good things, but they also do bad or wrong things and maybe a wrong spirit is guiding them. A fanaticism, and religious fanaticism is part of that as well. That’s one reason I do not support “Christian nationalism.” And was our Lord and Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ political? He was anything but! That could be a reason Roman governor Pontius Pilate found no wrong in Him, but King Herod and the religious leaders of the day, the Sanhedrin Pharisees and Sadducees, found lots of wrong in Him…which was why He was crucified instead of rebel leader Barabbas.

I will pray for the readers of this post and any other post on this site, and I will pray for anyone who has bought and/or read any of my novels, as well as the “guide for Christian authors,” Talent for a Mission, which I have posted chapter-by-chapter on this site.

Of course, I have my doubts as to the righteousness of the national, state, and local governing bodies, executive, legislative, or judicial, for corruption is rampant, but I will pray for these folks anyway.

And the media as well, the same media that is pushing the notion that Trump will go to war with Iran even though he is supposedly meeting with Iranian officials. War with Iran? God forbid! We’ve lost only God knows how many young men in these God awful wars for no reason other than to enrich the military-industrial complex. Some in the media say Trump will go to war against Iran on behalf of Israel, Iran’s main enemy.

My opinion? If Israel wants war with Iran, let them go to war with Iran, and leave us Americans out of it! They don’t need us, and they have nukes. And, oh yeah…the memory of what Israel did to the USS Liberty in 1967, murdering 34 American sailors and admitting this crime in their media in 2011 (while the US govt. continues to cover this up…I guess this truth is “antisemitic”….) And, while I cannot support Iran’s theocratic radical Shiite Muslim govt. which persecutes Christians there, guess what? Iran, due to its theocracy and persecution, is turning to Christ! Underground, of course, and the same with North Korea. Would be nice if Israel did as well, but those Talmudic extremists have too much fun spitting on Christians…and not just Palestinians ones, either… Go to former Israeli-now-American Jewish extremist-turned-Christian Stephen Ben Nun at his YouTube Israeli News Live channel for proof of this. And regarding Israel, I pray that these folks and especially their far-right govt. turn from their Talmudic anti-Christ ways and seek His salvation…and all the world doing the same thing!

So, Happy Resurrection Day…or Easter…or Passover…and blessings to you and yours!

The Influence That the Prodigal Band’s Women Had in the Repentance of the Prodigal Band, Part Four: The Likely Conversion of the Band’s Wives Continues

The previous snippet post from Chapter Ten of The Prodigal Band  features singer Erik’s wife Ger admitting to accepting Christ as Savior. The novel does not state that the other women converted, but it can be implied that they have considered it, what with them trying to get their men to fully accept Christ to do their ‘missions of God.’ The snippet post below, also from Chapter Ten, begins with the ending of the previous post, with Ger telling Erik she has accepted Christ. This is after he and the rest of the band return from a trip to now-Christian Bobby, a former band roadie and occultic cult member, who had composed a song for the band to help them begin their missions, called “He is the Way.” He being Christ.

The Influence That the Prodigal Band’s Women Had in the Repentance of the Prodigal Band, Part Three: The Conversion of the Band’s Wives Begins

As stated in the previous post, the conversions of the wives of the members of the prodigal band begins in Chapter Ten of The Prodigal Band with Morwenna, formerly a Godly spirit being, now human, influencing the women to accept Christ. This begins with singer Erik’s wife, Ger, who had hired Morwenna as her personal assistant. While Erik (as well as the rest of the band) was away meeting with a former roadie who composed a song for the band to perform, Morwenna is meeting with Ger after she and the rest of the band’s women had met in the atrium of Ger’s estate, as posted in the previous post, Part Two. The snippet related to this is below:

The Influence That the Prodigal Band’s Women Had in the Repentance of the Prodigal Band, Part Two: The Prodigal Band’s Women Consider Accepting Belief on Christ

Before I can post how the band’s women began considering believing on Christ, since their men were given ‘missions of God’ by God’s angels during the final singing note from a song those same angels gave them years before, I must remind the reader of the circumstances surrounding these missions given to the band members as well as how the singer of that note reacted to being given his mission during a conversation with pop culture pundits Jay Elliot (narrator of the first two novels of the trilogy, Battel of the Band and The Prophesied Band) and Lloyd Denholm, narrator of the third novel, The Prodigal Band. All snippets in this post are from The Prodigal Band, © 2018 by Deborah Lagarde.

The short snippet below, from Chapter Seven, relates to the local music festival finale early Sunday morning, July 16, 2000, when God’s angels, the Tooters, spoke to each prodigal band member what would become their individual ‘mission of God’ as singer Erik sang the mission song’s final note.

The Influence That the Prodigal Band’s Women Had in the Repentance of the Prodigal Band, Part One: Princess Tina’s Reference to Her Secret Lover, Drummer Tom, About Reading the Bible

This new series of posts deals with how the prodigal band members’ women, whether wives or lovers, influenced the band members to consider repenting of their sinful and debauched lifestyles, giving up “toeing the line of the masters of the music industry,” and ultimately, turning to Christ and the forces of Good, renouncing the forces of evil. This Part One post features prodigal band drummer Tom and his lover and future wife, Princess Tina, a member of a royal family within the fictitious principality of Leandro, set within Italy.

At a secret meeting between Princess Tina, who was forced to marry the evil Duke of Effingchester, but who loves band drummer Tom, Tina informs Tom that her husband and others are meeting with band guitarist and recording producer Mick, who also heads the band’s indie record label, Foray. They wanted to get Mick and the band to sell the record label to one of them. Tom believes that if the label is sold to one of them and controlled by the conglomerate he owns, the band would then be a ‘slave’ to the owner of the conglomerate and would have to produce music the owner demands instead of producing what they choose to produce. The meeting takes place at a London park in the summer of 1999. From  Chapter Seven of The Prophesied Band, copyright © 1998 Deborah Lagarde). The snippet is below:
