In an apocalyptic afterlife, where scripture is perverted by the morally corrupt, a young woman becomes the eighth wife to the prophet of a celestial family. Following the marriage ceremony, she gains entry to the family's homestead where its high stone walls and wards protect them from the waste. But, by taking her to be his wife, the prophet invites someone unexpected into his loving embrace. Celebrate the Everlasting, for there the righteous find tranquility and love. And to those undeserving belongs the Wrath.
