  That there had been such a clear violation of universal law confirmed the imbalance between light and dark. Nevertheless, the dark hadn’t prevailed. Light would always win in a battle between the light and the dark, but only when the combatants remembered their light. Many people gave their souls to darkness by succumbing to the fears and illusions that the dark side projected. It was precisely in those moments when fear threatened to take over that it was most important to hold onto that light within and not let go, to find the strength of that light and push the darkness out with power.

  The twins had expected some kind of warning before an attack. They’d expected to know when they were entering battle. It served as a reminder that the forces of light and dark were waging war against each other at all times. Even for the twins, it was easy to forget that darkness existed behind the scenes when they looked around and saw the beauty of the world.

  Creator’s love and light were the true essence of life. All the rest was an illusion that gave human beings a life of free will choices for the ultimate expansion of their souls. Darkness existed only to give contrast to the light. Light was the true natural state of all beings so darkness fell away in its presence.

  Eventually, Asara and Anak were able to continue on their journey. They stood and tested their legs, then walked east again, the hot sun shining straight above. They walked through the wilderness until they came upon another village. Even before they neared the town, the twins could feel the darkness oozing from its walls. Evil radiated from the city in all directions and announced itself to all who dared enter. The twins shuddered at the ugliness of it and took a moment to prepare, making their light as strong as possible.

  They stood a few feet apart from each other, closed their eyes, and spread their arms out facing their palms heavenward. They said a silent prayer of protection. Then they breathed in deeply, and with focused intention pulled light from above, in through their crowns and down through their bodies, allowing it to fill every recess of their beings.

  They held the light within them and also pushed it out into their energy fields, expanding the circle of light several feet outside of their bodies. Then the twins turned their focus to the earth and began to pull up the energy of the mother through their feet. They took in her strength, allowing it to connect them to the earth.

  By the time the twins were finished, they held within them the strength of heaven and earth. After all, they were creatures of both realms. The twins radiated gold and bright as they began their approach to the city.

  Chapter 14

  Paolo sipped on water through a straw and waited for Lena to wake, his hand cradling hers. He said prayers. He didn’t think about the accident or what it meant. He didn’t think of anything but how important Lena was to him. He waited patiently, lovingly, for her to regain consciousness.

  At mid-morning, when Paolo had drifted off to sleep, Lena did wake. She moved slightly without opening her eyes, but it was enough to alert Paolo. He woke up instantly and turned his head toward her, hoping he had not imagined her movement. Lena tried to open her eyes, but couldn’t. A few tries later, her droopy eyes stared into Paolo’s.

  “Hello, amore,” Paolo whispered to her. “I’m so happy you’ve come back to me. I love you.”

  Lena tried to speak, but her throat was so dry and raspy from the respirator that she struggled. She stopped trying. Paolo couldn’t move his body much yet, but he was able to reach out and touch her. His battered hand caressed her bruised cheek. “Rest, amore. Rest. We’ll talk later.” Already she was closing her eyes and going back to sleep. But she had woken up. Paolo was ecstatic. His beloved would be all right.

  Chapter 15

  With the bright Sedona sun streaming through the windows of the bedroom, Lena and Paolo woke. The nurse alerted the woman who’d helped them, and she now sat, calm and composed, in a chair next to Paolo’s bedside. She waited until both Lena and Paolo opened their eyes and focused on her to begin speaking.

  “My name is Marian. Victor Stone told me about you and warned me that you might need my help,” the woman said as she smiled reassuringly.

  Even in their groggy state, the mention of Victor’s name surprised them. But then, Victor saw Lena and Paolo for who they were, and he knew that, as their light shone brighter, they’d become more noticeable to the darkness. Like moths drawn to a flame, the creatures of darkness were drawn to the light of human souls.

  Victor had shared with Marian that two very powerful light workers were beginning to awaken to their combined purpose. Part of Marian’s role, like Victor’s, was to help valuable light workers succeed in their life missions. Marian told her spirit guides that she wanted to assist Lena and Paolo in whatever way they needed.

  It was a warning from her guides that placed Marian at the site of the targeted strike on that night of the almost-full moon. Without knowing where she was going, Marian drove her car until she saw the two oversized vehicles attacking the undersized sports car.

  Without knowing who was in the car, Marian intervened. She couldn’t allow those people to be murdered. She held down her horn while calling the police and asking that officers be sent to the scene. Once Marian saw that the attack was purposeful, she suspected that dark forces were at work and that the people inside the car were a threat because of their advancement in the light.

  When Marian saw the damage to Paolo’s rental car, she thought she might have arrived too late. The car was a tangle of twisted metal and broken glass. It seemed impossible that any human being could survive a dual-sided attack from two vehicles more than twice the size of the sports car. But a white angelic glow emanated from inside the car. Miracles were already unfolding as Marian did her part to save Lena and Paolo.

  After witnessing the angels’ intervention to save the man and woman, Marian realized the two of them must have much to contribute to the world. It was important that she also do her part to protect them. Marian knew there was nothing she could do to prevent the emergency responders from taking Lena and Paolo to the hospital, where they’d be unprotected and vulnerable to attack while they recovered from their severe injuries. So even while rescue workers and medics were pulling Lena and Paolo from the wreckage, Marian was on her phone organizing their rescue.

  She used an encryption program with her cell phone so that no one could intercept her calls. She knew much of what the world was really like, and it was far from what it appeared to be. She had to be as careful as possible.

  While emergency responders were lifting Lena and Paolo onto a medical helicopter, Marian and her rescue team were assembling and coordinating final details. Within minutes, the rescue team was on the road heading toward the Phoenix hospital where the helicopter would land.

  Marian was a graceful, petite woman. Her skin was pale, and she wore her long hair, as black and shiny as raven wings, twisted into an elegant bun. But despite appearances, she was a warrior, with an innate power that overshadowed her physical stature, and a certain agelessness that made it difficult to guess how old she was.

  “There is a concerted effort of darkness to dominate the world and to control human souls. This is relevant to you,” Marian told them. “You need to know and master much, but unfortunately there’s little time for it. And there are some things you need to know right now that we don’t have the luxury of allowing you to learn on your own.

  “You’re monitored. The stronger your light shines, the more important it is to the dark side to neutralize you. Both of you are already shining brightly. As you learn and grow together, you may become unstoppable. One being full of light can have an amazing, widespread impact on the world. As your energies combine, you’ll have the ability to change the world.

  “Are you aware of how the dark forces work? Because you’ll need to understand this to prepare yourselves to be strong against them.”

  “We have some idea, but please explain it to us anyway. Our knowledge is limited,” Paolo said. Lena’s head poun
ded and throbbed, and she struggled to keep her attention focused on what Marian was saying.

  She stared at Lena and Paolo with bottomless black eyes. “Victor will have likely explained some of this to you, so please excuse me if I tell you what you already know. It’s imperative that you realize what goes on in the unseen world. The dark forces manipulate most everything to some degree or another. Our Mother Father God created this world with a need for both light and dark. As souls, we come to this earth to learn important lessons for our growth. So in that sense, the dark can be a catalyst for good. Eventually, after many incarnations, we may become enlightened beings. This may take a very long time for certain souls, and others may never achieve this ultimate perfection.

  “Opportunity for growth comes through our free will choices. It is by making choices that honor ourselves and all humanity that we grow. It’s ultimately through love that we advance. And so the dark is a necessary evil. Without it, there would be no opportunity for expansion. If there were only love and light in the world, there would be no contrast to the dark. It’s sometimes through pain and tears that people grow the most, learn the most about themselves, and understand their inner strengths and passions.

  “Our Mother Father God commands two archangels to supervise the existence of the light and the dark. They are Archangel Michael and Archangel Lucifer. Humanity has attributed an unwarranted reputation to Archangel Lucifer over the many centuries that it has been aware of his influence. This has been purposeful. The dark side intends to breed fear.”

  It startled Lena to hear Archangel Lucifer mentioned in this context. She’d grown up instructed in the idea of damnation to hell where Lucifer commanded the eternal suffering of human souls.

  “Archangel Michael and Archangel Lucifer are twins. Just like you are.”

  This information shocked both Lena and Paolo. Their eyes opened wide. They were just beginning to figure out that they were twin souls, and yet this woman who was nearly a stranger perceived it. Lena and Paolo stared at Marian. She had their full attention. Lena pushed the weariness from her consciousness. She didn’t want to miss a word.

  Marian continued as if what she was describing was ordinary. It was the reality in which she operated. She had integrated the concepts of the ethereal and the three-dimensional worlds into her everyday life.

  “Michael means ‘he who is like God’ and Lucifer means ‘light bearer.’ God does everything purposefully. How can the light bearer be anything but that? Archangel Michael’s duty is to monitor the light. He’s the protector of light beings and of the existence of light on earth. God asked Archangel Lucifer to take on an even more difficult job: to create the underworld and to monitor the darkness. Now, the underworld is another misnomer used by the darkness to mislead and frighten because the underworld isn’t really under anything, nor is it even in this world. There’s no hell or anything like that.

  “The forces of darkness, just like the forces of light, operate in another dimension, at another vibrational frequency than the standard of people on earth. That’s why when a person’s frequency rises or lowers, they can see and feel things of either the light or the dark that are outside of ordinary experience.

  “Since there’s a need for darkness for soul growth to take place, Archangel Lucifer’s assignment is very important. I imagine it must be a difficult duty because there’s no love of darkness within Lucifer. He’s an archangel just as bright as his brother. However, obedient to God’s wishes, Lucifer has managed the darkness for eons. He has ensured its existence and that it continues to plague humanity, for this is God’s perfect design.”

  Lena and Paolo were enraptured. Everything Marian was saying resonated within them. Paolo had sharpened his skills of discernment over years of searching, and he felt within his heart that what Marian said was true. Lena was still learning, but even she could feel that Marian spoke the truth. Lena felt it vibrate through her body.

  “There are different kinds of dark creatures, just as there are different types of light beings. Within the forces of light, there are archangels who hold offices with important functions and then angels that tend to the needs of those officers and of humanity in general. There are ascended masters and other enlightened beings that also assist humans.

  “Among the forces of dark, there are demons, but no arch demons like there are archangels. The demons attach to humans and different causes with varying missions, but always to achieve one common purpose: to wreak chaos and despair upon humanity. Then there are lower intelligence dark beings with limited, focused abilities. There are dark amorphous shapes that look like blobs, for instance, and they can pull a human soul down into darkness until the person feels anguished and depressed.”

  Marian paused only to draw breath. “Then there are spirits or ghosts or whatever else people may call them. Spirits aren’t made of darkness. They are the souls of human beings that have died but not found their way back to the light yet. Spirits aren’t malevolent in essence. They are simply lost souls that are still affected by those same vices and weaknesses that controlled them in life. That’s why spirits can be so destructive when attached to a human being. If the spirit was violent and abusive in life, for example, then it’s likely that the human to whom the spirit attaches will begin to show these traits.

  “So you understand how spirits can greatly affect people in a negative way while still not being malicious per se? We can talk more about all of this later. I just want to make sure you understand the basic structure before you have to face it.”

  “Yes.” Lena answered this time. She was beginning to find her voice. “We’re following what you’re saying. Please keep going.” Lena didn’t think she’d ever heard such a succinct, helpful explanation before.

  Marian smiled. “So while spirits aren’t malevolent in nature, they must still be dealt with to help the humans they afflict, as well as to direct the spirits towards the light.”

  A man slipped in the door, as if on cue, and handed Marian a glass of water from a tray he was carrying.

  “Thank you, Manolo. Just what I needed,” Marian said as she drank. Manolo slipped out the door again. Marian placed her glass on a side table, leaned back in the leather-sitting chair, and looked out the window. She seemed pensive.

  “What you’ll most need to be aware of are the demons. Their specific purpose is to cause destruction, pain, and chaos, and they do their jobs very effectively, trust me on that one.”

  Lena and Paolo did, and they nodded emphatically in response. They had no desire to learn any lesson the hard way if they could avoid it.

  “Demons work strategically, and they can also work together in concerted efforts when necessary. They can do their work through other human beings by possessing them. For example, say the demons are trying to get to you and can’t because your vibration is too high. You keep your thoughts positive and light and they can’t possess you. They might come in and possess your mother, sister, and brother, and cause damage that way, doing everything they can to bring you down to a place of despair. You can imagine the effect it would have on a person if his mother and sister were yelling and fighting all the time and his brother tried to commit suicide. Suddenly that person’s life could feel dark and terrible.

  “And once that person’s vibration drops because of those dark feelings, then the door is open, and a demon can sweep in and possesses the person directly. Now demons have hold of the entire family, and they feed off despair and dark emotions. You can only imagine what they could do in a situation like that. It happens all the time.”

  Lena and Paolo were listening, eyes wide. The world was a very intense place. Marian didn’t want to overwhelm them; she just wanted to prepare them.

  The tone of her voice softened. “I know that I’ve made all of this sound horrible, but it all depends on how you look at it. There’s a defense to the darkness and that’s the light. Demons can only come into a person if that individual’s frequency—vibration, energy, whatever you want to
call it—is vulnerable. Demons can come into a person who’s feeling despair, anguish, hate, jealousy, or any other dark sentiment. Any emotion that brings a person’s vibration down will open the door for a demon.

  “Once a demon grabs hold of someone, it hardly ever lets go. And because a demon can control the thoughts and feelings of its host, a human being cannot usually rid himself of a demon without help, though it is possible. Very strong and aware light beings may be able to banish a demon that has attached during an uncommon moment of weakness and lowered frequency.

  “Even after a demon has been removed, a person will stay clear only so long as his vibration stays high. As before, if his energy dips down into the lower frequencies, then a demon may possess the soul again. That’s why it’s mostly pointless to rid people of demons if they know no better afterward than to allow their vibration to sink to its original levels. It’s a waste of energy.

  “And since demons operate to keep light out of the world, they watch light workers like you closely. They wait patiently for their opportunity. Sometimes demons take humans that are destined to be great light workers when they are very young, before they are able to anchor their strength. Those that are powerful grow strong in the light despite the demons’ influence and eventually find their way to someone who knows exactly how to help them.

  “I suspect that’s what happened to both of you because you’re destined to do great things. Demons probably monitored you from the time you incarnated on earth. Angels that come into human bodies always are.”
