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

It has been over two months since my last post! Sorry about that, but I have been busy—camping/fishing trip, visiting a chiropractor in El Paso because I developed lower back and thigh pain while on the trip and even before it, birthdays, chores, and more. And also, finding the inspiration for the new novel overall plot with spiritual overtones as to how digital IDs and artificial intelligence (AI) is affecting life on Earth today….and all the posts online claiming we may be entering ‘the end times’….and fake this and fake that.

I had stated that it crossed my mind that the powers-that-be might be trying to configure a fake ‘rapture’ where fake bodies are seen heading into the clouds ‘to meet the Lord in the air’ (1Thessalonians 4:15-16) while believers on Christ are ‘left behind’ to wonder why they weren’t ‘caught up in the clouds.’ That way, Christians who believed in a ‘pre-trib rapture,’ not being caught up, would renounce their faith in Christ—which is exactly what the forces of evil want!

However, the notion of fake rapture is not going to be featured in the new novel. But the now infamous World Economic Forum saying telling us ‘useless eaters’ that “You will own nothing and be happy” does play into the plot.

In the novel, an evil corporation which (not too ironically considering the mess that Microsoft’s Windows 11 has become thanks to its ‘recall’ AI app which lets Microsoft control pretty much the entire computer device, and Apple’s Mac operating system isn’t much better…and Linux? Hmmmmm…..)…well this evil corporation called Origin, having designed a new operating system as the others have collapsed (remember, this is fiction…I’m not browbeating Microsoft or Apple or Linux or any other system for real…I still use Windows 10, okay?)…the collapse being fictional…has actually in fiction bought out the other companies such that Origin’s operating system was the only viable one around. The time frame in the following post is late 2025.

The snippet below (copyright © 2025 Deborah Lagarde) features Morwenna, former (and future as well) spirit being who communicates with the Tooters angels to message those she is told to message, such as the members of the prodigal band and other ‘missionaries of God.’ Morwenna, now fully human again (ordained by God), becomes employed by Origin since, having lived over 800 years as various humans in various nations, she is fluent in several other languages, thus Origin needs her as a translator and interpreter. Another woman, Rita, is her boss. Both are Christians. Then there is Dumlat, head of Origin and creator of various gaming and other applications since childhood years, and is from a very powerful ‘elite’ family. In the snippet below, Dumlat appears to consider Morwenna a key and valuable employee, not realizing Morwenna’s employment ‘mission’ was to infiltrate the company to find out what they were up to. Below is Part One of the snippet that deals with ‘the Plan’ Dumlat and his evil ‘elite’ cohorts have devised to enslave humanity into what I might call their ‘beast system.’

Snippets of The Prodigal Band Trilogy: Paranormal

The two previous set of snippets dealt with the occult; this one deals with the paranormal. Some might consider occult and paranormal the same thing, but there are differences. Occult implies humans practicing witchcraft or satanic rituals or playing at them–that is, occult is where, to one degree or another, humans are in control or at least are doing the bidding of the spirit that is taking part in or leading the ritual. Paranormal, according to the definition I found, implies lack of control on the part of humans to some extent: denoting events or phenomena such as telekinesis or clairvoyance that are beyond the scope of normal scientific understanding. That is, normal human understanding!

The two snippets in this post, both from the final book of the trilogy, The Prodigal Band, are clearly beyond human understanding, as both events are completely under divine control, for divine purposes. One of the snippets is similar to an actual event that happened to someone I know. Similar events also occurred to some very key figures in the Bible.

Snippets of The Prodigal Band Trilogy: Fantasy

The Fantasy genre can be defined in many ways as it mixes in with Science Fiction or Horror-Occultic or Spiritual or even Dystopian genres. But The Prodigal Band Trilogy does not take place on some fantasy world in another galaxy or another planet or another time frame, but in the modern times mostly in the time frame of late 70s to early 2000s, mostly in the UK or the US, mostly in southeast England, NYC, LA area or the Bay Area or in the fictitious city of Walltown in northeast England where the band, Sound Unltd, is from, or the Bay Area fictitious city called Richmont. Yet that’s not the fantasy part.

Both the first chapter of Battle of the Band and the first chapter of The Prodigal Band begin in the “beforetime” realm of God in heaven with the fallen angels being cast into the Abyss, and on Earth in the 1130s in Walltown, which in the year 1136 is burning, having been cursed by an evil Duke calling forth Demons to burn the residences of rebellious serfs. Meanwhile angelic forces entering the city through a portal where a three-part angelic statue is being built, come to inhabit that statue where they sit in spirit as they put out the fire. Since the statue-figures have music horns, the statue is called The Tooters.

Another force for good–truly a fantasy character–an old woman considered a ‘witch’ by the locals, Morwenna being her name, is able to channel The Tooters for the cause of good. As she is given a song that will be passed down to future generations to save the town from evil, she suddenly by divine intervention becomes young again, and is able to mate with the man who will raise a son to pass down the song for over 800 years. What can be more fantasy than a woman who grows old and young and old and young for 800 years to assure the song is passed down to what would become a ‘prophesied’ band.
