More About The Prodigal Band Aftermath: Dumlat Bloodline Investigation, the Why (Part One)

The beginning of Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath, with the opening chapter snippet below, concerns the genetic makeup, both DNA and genome features, of two “elite” bloodlines featured in The Prodigal Band Trilogy or the spin-off novel The Prodigal Band Aftermath. The “elite” bloodline in the snippet below belongs to the family of Joe Phillips, aka “Agent R,” who (in Part Three of the spin-off novel The Murder Rule) faked his own death as he realized he was likely to be “murder ruled” by the forces of evil ruling over the world, and created the fake name “Joe Ramsey.” In Chapter Sixteen of The Prodigal Band, Phillips, along with ‘the prodigal band’ Sound Unltd, witnessed Phillips’ father Baron Torquay-Lambourgeau repent of his grossly evil deeds and accept Christ as Savior. Baron knew his son Joe had made the same decision a couple of years prior along with the band members, but it was Baron’s butler, Swinton, who had most to do with his wanting repentance. However, Baron’s father, Aston Torquay-Lambourgeau, did not repent and in fact was an epitome of evil with his blood drinking and partaking in Satanic rituals—a modern-day Count Dracula (aka Vlad the Impaler) so-to-speak.

To begin Chapter Three, Swinton, while cleaning the bedroom of Aston as was his job periodically with his main job being the caretaking of the dying Baron in late August, 2003, discovered by accident the genetic records of the evil Aston, and what he found was indeed shocking: Aston, and, as Swinton suspected, evil members of various aristocratic bloodlines, was missing a certain gene that nearly all humans possessed. Lacking this gene, Swinton surmised, could have been the reason Aston Torquay-Lambourgeau was the epitome of evil and demonically possessed. Before I post the snippet about Aston’s corrupted genetics, I need to mention why, when it seemed as though the AI and digital takeover that Dumlat was orchestrating using his company Origin was going to be the main plot that would bring about a near-future dystopia, the bloodline genetics meme would be included—the Epstein Files, which is getting alternative media coverage like crazy as it deserves to be covered, considering the incredible evil these files expose…redacted or not. The whole “beef jerky/grape soda/and more” coded messages in the emails make the so-called “PizzaGate” look mild. These files aren’t just about child trafficking and pedophilia. Cannibalism (“beef jerky”) and blood sacrifice (“grape soda”) with the usual Satanic rituals the wide-awake among us know these “elites” partake in has taken over the alt-media headlines and videos. But Epstein, along with eugenicist Bill Gates and others, transhumanist or not, has also partaken in funding and aiding genetic DNA and genome corruption, as stated in this video at http://fromthetrenchesworldreport.com/report-epstein-ties-with-nsa-revealed/340282. Genetic manipulation, which reminds me of a certain Gospel of Matthew Chapter 24 verse quote by Christ Himself relating to the so-called “end times,” what Christ called “the days of Noah.” Genesis Chapter Six begins with the notion of fallen angels (the sons of God) mating with the daughters of men, producing “giants” also referred to as Nephilim, that is, hybrid humans, not fully human. Because God’s creation (humans as well as animals) was corrupted to the point where only Noah was “perfect in his generation,” God would send the Flood to wipe out the corruption and told Noah to build the ark to save what could be saved, uncorrupted. But the verse referring to the fallen angels mating with mankind also states, “and also after that.” In other words, even after the Flood, mankind’s God-given genetics would be corrupted. Examples: Goliath, Amorite King Og of Bashon, Nimrod, the son of Cush, the son of Ham…who had another son, Canaan, whom God cursed…were some of the sons of Ham genetically corrupted…by Ham’s wife, maybe? Or the wives of these sons? Hmmmmmmmmm….. I cannot answer this, but it could be a possibility. Also as to the Canaanites: in the Book of Joshua, several of Joshua’s men investigating Jericho within Canaan discovered what they called Rephaim (also called by some scholars Ananuki, which were considered aliens, or more likely more fallen angels) who were also giants.

So, were some “elite” bloodlines throughout history (and today) corrupted by genetic manipulation at some time in the past? Maybe, possibly being descendants of Nimrod or Og or the Canaanites or some other race or people group not mentioned in the Bible or other religious works. Speculation abounds among “end time” watchers and various genetic scholars. In my opinion it is certainly possible, but, according to the link mentioned above, this genetic manipulation along with transhumanism is happening now…which is why I included it in the new novel. Will the so-called coming Anti-Christ be a part of this abomination?

Flashback: Late August, 2003: Swinton Discovers Genetic Records of Aston Torquay-Lambourgeau

While taking care of the dying Baron Torquay-Lambourgeau in the last week of August, 2003, the baron’s ‘butler’ and personal assistant, Swinton, accidently discovered a secret vault while cleaning the former bedroom of the baron’s evil father, Aston Torquay-Lambourgeau. The key to the vault was found on the carpet under the vault.

I wonder what is in this vault, Swinton thought, astounded he would find such a hidden vault. I know the man was evil to the core and worshiped the devil, drank blood at every mean and, so sayeth Baron, was at times a cannibal. But what else can I discover about Aston? Why was he so bloody evil?

So, Swinton opened the vault, and then was able to move the vault from under a cabinet next to Aston’s bed to make it easier to remove any documents found in the vault. As Swinton removed the documents…

A list of Novordo Club members.

A list of Inner Sanctum members from the 1940s, and then another list from the 1950s.

Copies of birth certificates from Royal Family members.

Novordo Club meeting agendas and other documents.

A well-known book by a well-known Satanist.

Old newspapers.

Old pictures, likely relatives.

His own birth certificate.

A document that contained information on some blood work done in the year 1933, including a box that would indicate blood type—which was empty.

No blood type? Swinton was shocked.

And then he read further down the page, noticing extremely small print at the very bottom of the back of that paper, print he needed a magnifying glass to read. He went to his room to get his own magnifying glass, a large one.

And this is what he saw with the magnifying glass:

“This blood work was authorized by Aston Torquay-Lambourgeau to include any DNA or genetic information that he believed proved he was a superior human being. While the X and Y chromosomes under magnification are typical for most humans, there is a lack of one particular gene and chromosomal DNA-RNA formation that is typical in most humans regardless of bloodlines. This gene that he lacks is called the A2 gene which most humans possess. However, some in aristocratic bloodlines have been proven to not possess this gene. Genetic researchers exploring the lack of this gene among high-level aristocrats and various royal families have verified that some in this class do not possess this gene, and, further, those who lack this gene tend to commit extremely diabolical acts such as one very key member of this class, Count Vlad Dracul.”

Dracula! Swinton nearly fell over backwards.

“Baron’s father was like Count Dracula?” Swinton shouted, so loudly that the curtains in the room nearly flew into the air!

Then beneath that testimonial document was a short hand-written note from Aston, that read, “and Countess Elizabeth Bathory too! My kind of woman!”

More shock! Bathory? The same Bathory that killed her maids then swam in their blood in her spa? Oh my God!

After calming down, Swinton sat in a chair in the room and remembered back to the meeting Baron had with his son Joe Phillips and the members of Sound Unltd about a week ago. While he was not within the group surrounding the dying Baron, Joe later told him what was said between Joe and his father, in summary:

“My father said that most of his father’s bloodline had what he implied was evil DNA. Then I responded that I do not have that evil DNA. Something like that. Later, after the band left, my father then told me that his father Aston had proof that his DNA or something, his genes, was missing a particular gene that most humans possess, a gene that was required to possess goodness, love, kindness. Stuff like that. And Aston was missing this gene, which is why my father believes Aston was committed to evil, worshiped the devil, did satanic rituals and child sacrifices and drank their blood.

“So then, after finding that out, my father had his bloodwork to find out if he was also missing this gene. Turned out he had the gene, which is what I suspected. My father really only turned to evil when, as he claimed, God took his wife he loved, my mother, so then he hated God. Until now. He has accepted Christ as Savior and has repented of hating God.”

“Yes,” Swinton replied. “I was sure that he would make that decision.” Broad smile. “And does your bloodwork prove you are truly human?”

“Of course! I had some bloodwork done about ten years ago and no statement about missing genes or corrupted DNA on the form.”

According to some geneticists of a more spiritual bent, this gene is called A2S, with the ‘S’ standing for ‘spirituality.’ Without this gene, so sayeth these geneticists, the human cannot and will not have any connection to spiritual goodness, love, and God-given humanity. Then you have geneticists that debunk the existence of this gene.

In other words, humanity as a whole had this gene which made them fully human. But those who lacked this gene? Clearly, they were NOT fully human, and had no love or goodness in them. However, as Baron Torquay-Lambourgeau and his son, Joe Phillips, proved, not all members of aristocrat or royal families lacked this gene. I am sure Princess Tina of Leandro, who gave up the crown to marry Sound Untld drummer Tom, also possessed this gene…but did her parents, who were Inner Sanctum members?

Further, did those whom the evil angel Corion possessed, such as Swami Negran and Cole Blessing and Mark Besst and others of more recent days, also lack this gene, which allowed Corion to possess them?

There is a passage in the Bible Book of Genesis that plays into this notion, in Genesis Chapter 6 verse 4, where the ‘sons of God’ mated with the daughters of men and produced ‘giants,’ also called Nephilim. These ‘sons of God’ were the fallen angels as spoken of in the Epistle of Jude where ‘they left their first estate,’ that is, heaven, and came or fell to Earth to mate with humans, producing these beings, giants, not fully human. In the Gospel of Matthew 24, Jesus Christ referred to those events as in the ‘days of Noah.’ That was why God sent that Flood. But the verse also says this happened, ‘also after that.’ Thus, Nimrod, Goliath, Amorite King Og, the Rephaim in the Book of Joshua. And various Greek and Roman and other ‘gods.’ Hercules. And maybe even that evil character Mick constantly harped about, Crynnwagg.

Not so surprisingly, after Morwenna quit her job at Origin as they were about to move to a major city in Texas, she decided to do her own research on the genetic possession of Dumlat and his oligarchical family. Secretly, of course—invisible.

The next post will continue in Chapter Three of The Prodigal Band Aftermath as Morwenna does her research into Dumlat’s bloodlines. Secretly, of course.

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 so 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.

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.

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):

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 Five: More of the Likely Conversion of the Band’s Wives, Continued

As stated in the previous post, Part Four of the influence that the band’s women had in the repentance of the band and accepting Christ as Savior, this post features snippets where synthist Bry’s wife Mo has her say in this influence and also guitarist-producer Mick and drummer Tom discuss this issue. The snippets, also from Chapter Ten of The Prodigal Band, © 2018 Deborah Lagarde, are below.

Meanwhile, walking along Altuna Beach near Jack’s in the moonlight

“Are you still queer, Mick?” Tom asked.

“No.”

The drummer and guitarist planned to leave for their respective homes the next morning.

“We all have a lot of things we need to ask forgiveness for.” Mick stared straight ahead. “Not just me, you know.”

“I know that, but some sins are harder to deal with than others.” Looked at Mick who was still staring ahead. “And mine is thinking I’ve committed fewer sins than the rest of you.”

Pordengreau stopped. “Really, Tom? I think each of our sins are equally bad. That’s because most of our sins were against ourselves.”

“Yeh, but the greatest sin was us thinking we were gods and being idols to millions. I’ve glanced through the Bible from time to time, and the sin God really hated the most was when people worshiped other gods. I mean, whole nations were destroyed because of it.”

“You really, really think even one of our fans actually worshiped us? And even if they did, that’s their problem, not ours.”

“Mick, Mick, Mick, we promoted ourselves as ‘the greatest band ever.’ If that’s not actually promoting ourselves as gods, it’s pretty bloody close. I’d say close enough to incur the wrath of God.”

“What ‘wrath of God’? Don’t you think that would have happened by now?”

“The crisis Mick, remember?”

The other rolled his eyes. “For bloody sake, we got through that one, eh, without death and destruction. In fact,” Mick got in Tom’s face, “why would God give us a mission if he thought we were some kind of abomination?”

Tom thought a minute.

“I think we were close to becoming something close to the worst thing, but because through all the ‘greatest band ever’ shit, we kept our perspective. Every time it looked like we’d act like gods, we did something to screw that up. At the height of our fame and fortune, we went into seclusion and then everything went to hell.”

“Yeh, Tom,” Mick sighed, “but we still have a lot to answer for.”

Then Tom stopped though Mick walked straight ahead. “Yeh, but I have a question that needs answering now.”

Yet Mick, though hearing him, kept on walking, not wanting to hear it.

“And that question is,” Tom went on, “are we really doing this mission or are we just gonna go through the motions?”

No answer.

The following morning, at the McClellan ranch house, Texas

Mo McClellan strolled out of the ranch house to meet Bry, who was exiting the SUV he’d driven home from the airport.

“How was it?”

He slammed the door. “It sucked, actually. But we did get the song.” Sarcastic grunt.

Wonderful, she thought as he briskly passed her by. Followed him into the house where she saw him thrash the overnight bag onto the leather couch halfway across the thousand-square-foot living room, nearly knocking over a spittoon.

“Guess what, Mo?” he yelled out in disgust. “Now we’re gonna have to be Jesus freaks.” Another grunt. “Let’s see now,” knocking over furniture, bounding to the bag that he was preparing to toss into the nearest hallway, “we’ve gone from totally irreligious to pagan religion to heretics to ‘unless we accept Christ as our Savior we have no business doing this song that we have to do because some stupid statue gave us a mission of God and some stupid witch told us to do the song as part of the mission.”

“Bry—” Mo tried to calm him.

“And the rest of the band is in denial. They’re all thinking of ways to get on with this mission without having to become Christian. They,” turning to face Mo, “they really think that it’s okay to do a song that just might convert a few million fans to Christianity, and not do it themselves. Do you know what that makes us?”

Mo answered, half in jest, “Hypocrites?”

“Right.” Bry then stomped over to another couch and flung himself on it. “I mean, the whole trip sucked. We were hiking up this trail to Bobby’s, and the first thing you know Erik collapses from exhaustion. What a weakling! So Bobby has to bring him up in a four-wheeler—well, actually, he brought us all up!” Laughs. “There we are, six of the richest guys on the planet, and none of us in shape. None of us is healthy enough to make a one mile hike at an altitude of about six thousand feet. We might as well be Chinese Empress Dowagers being hauled around in a litter all day!” Another loud laugh as he threw his arms out to her. “We are such bloody fat cats, eh?”

She sat down opposite him, holding back a laugh of irony.

“So we get to his place, dying of thirst, and he tells us a witch—oh, and, by the way, that witch is now working for Ger.”

”Morwenna? A witch?” Mo was more shocked than surprised.

“Right. Morwenna. She told him to get his song to us any way he could do it, and that we have to perform this song as part of our so-called mission, which we agreed to do. Erik—who may have had a slight heart attack on the hike yesterday for bloody sake—says he really wants to do it, but he for one doesn’t sound like he’s converting to Christianity any time soon. And neither is anyone else in the band. I don’t want to, either, but at least I don’t think we can get by not doing it.”

All Mo could say was, “Then you do have a problem, eh?”

“Yeh,” he smirked, then went upstairs to the master bedroom, thinking. It’s gonna take an act of God to get us to believe.

The next post is undecided, and when it will be posted is also undecided, but I hope I have something to post before Easter, aka Resurrection Day, April 20.

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.

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:

The Prodigal Band’s ‘Missions of God’: Snippets On How the Prodigal Band Carries Them Out (Part Six): Keyboard-Synthist Bryan’s Mission (Part A)

The final parts of this series on the band’s given missions of God concern the keyboard-synthist Bryan, also called Bry, who is also well connected with bikers, which mostly make up the band’s roadies. Bear in mind that his parents, also musicians, were hard-core atheists and obsessed with Darwinian evolution theory.

Here is an irony—the first biker Bryan had ever met was Christian!

The snippet below, from Chapter Twelve of The Prodigal Band (© 2018 Deborah Lagarde), explains part of why Bry considered accepting Christ, as he tells the rest of the band and manager Joe Phillips, in his ‘revelation.’ After telling then that a Christian summer camp worker convinced him Darwinian evolution was bogus, he then brings up this Christian biker he’d met at a previous local Walltown music festival in 1981.

The Prodigal Band’s ‘Missions of God’: Snippets On How the Prodigal Band Carries Them Out (Part Four): Drummer Tom’s Mission

Next up is the prodigal band drummer Tom, who was born into great poverty within the slum district called the Hovels in the band’s hometown, his father being indentured along with other folks in this district. At age nine, a spirit being called the witch of the Hovels convinced Tom to leave the Hovels and become adopted by the band’s original manager, Billy Prestin—who also adopted guitarist and band leader Jack, who escaped an abusive father within a supposedly Christian cult. Upon becoming a wealthy rock star, Tom was determined to free his family from indenture (as well as the other Hovels indentured folks) by paying off the debt and also was determined to find out who indentured his family. In the meantime, he chose to hang out with other wealthy celebrities and aristocratic upper class associates so as to find some clues as to who held the indent over his family. That was how he met and developed a loving relationship with the princess of a fictitious principality inside Italy called Leandro, Princess Tina. The love that developed between the two was about more than just finding out who indentured his family. And the man who controlled the indent, another aristocrat named Marty, the Duke of Effingchester, having learned Tom paid off the debt—which was a curse on him as told to ancestors by the satanic spirit character Corion—vowed to get revenge on Tom by marrying the Princess! Tina, of course, was totally opposed to the marriage and despised the Duke and continued in secret to be with Tom when possible. Further, it was Tina who paved the way for Tom to realize he had to turn from his debauched celebrity lifestyle and (as she said to him in The Prophesied Band) ‘open the Bible.’ Further, in Chapter Eight of that second trilogy novel, both Tom and Tina witnessed a satanic ritual through a window of an underground room within satanic cult leader Cole Blessing’s residence. Thus, since Tom hung out with aristocrats and celebrities who were also influenced by the forces of evil and was partnered with a force for good, the Princess who was also fighting the evils of her Godless husband the Duke, God’s angels, the Tooters, gave Tom this mission they knew he could carry out…as long as Tom would not carry put what he promised his father in a letter stating he had paid off the debt—that is, to kill the man who indentured his father. Below, from Chapter Ten of The Prophesied Band, is the mission given to Tom by the Tooters as singer Erik held the final note of the final song at the hometown music festival:

Tom, his drums silent, also listened.

“You will know His Word by your band leader’s instructions. You must know these Words so that you can use them to fight Corion’s new order and the Evil of Corion you saw that night at Cole Blessing’s home. Your mission is to make your entertainment colleagues turn from their Godless ways and to take the tool of Godless culture away from the servants of Evil. Your enemy, the Duke of Effingchester, will try to stop you. You must defeat his influence, but you must not defeat him as you once promised your father. Remember, The Creator will deal with him.”
