Have you ever seen an angel?

05/18/2012 Posted by mindsinger

What would you do if you were accidentally set down on a world of magnificent innocence?    What if angels were as common as people?  What would they look like?  How would they interact with humans?

That is exactly what happened to Zach Thomas.  Through what he considered to be an accident, he was suddenly thrust into just such a world; a world that had never known sin or the warped minds of sin’s consequence.  No thorns on roses, no poisonous snakes, spiders or plants, a world of perfection pure and simple.

And the angels?  Oh there were angels.  Only here they were called Alari or winged ones, and their average height was around seven feet.  Capable of changing size from miniscule to gigantic and with the gift of flight, they were truly a puzzlement to Zach.

Windfallow, sister world to earth, exists in a different dimension; not Heaven, but much nearer to the eternal plane than Earth.  Since Fallowfolk had never sinned, their world was still in a state of perfection, and its citizens retained their full brain capacity.

THE GREAT BELL OF FELLOWSHIP

Chapter six PP 4

Zach pulled on his clothes and joined the others at the breakfast table. His brother, Jake, had come in after they had gone to sleep and had been told a little of what was happening. Zach saw Angari sitting on top of the refrigerator, downsized to two feet. It was almost impossible to think of him as the glorious creature revealed to them the night before. He saw Angari wink and knew he had read his thoughts.

Zach, Sparrow, Stilts and Angari returned to earth to ask Zach’s dad, Pastor John Thomas for help in finding and reclaiming the Bell of Fellowship.  Now they were eating a quick breakfast.

As they had talked with Zach’s dad the evening before Zach had mentioned Angari who at this time was invisible to the Thomas’s.  When asked who he was, Zach obtained permission to let his folks see the Alari.  But no one, including Zach and company,  was prepared for the creature that materialized in John Thomas’ study.  Angari had slowly transformed into his celestial form and before them appeared a magnificent creature, seven feet tall, with face and hands like burnished bronze, shining white garments and golden wings.  Most astonished of all was Stilts when he realized this was the same creature he ordered around with impunity back on Windfallow.

Now Zach looked up and saw Angari in his regular garb,  sized down to two feet and sitting on top of the refrigerator. The Alari could assume any size they wished and had done so on occasion while Zach was with them.  Zach vacillated between awe and deep friendship with the Windfallow angels.

The group, on the advice of Zach’s father, was going to fly to the spot where the Bell had been rung, setting off a time warp in a 6 or 7 hundred mile radius.  Angari would carry them and Zach’s folks would drive to the spot behind them.  They had listened to the morning news and knew the unusual earthquake in Oklahoma pinpointed the location where the Bell had been rung.

(The full account of this adventure may be found in the first book of the double trilogy, THE CHRONICLES OF WINDFALLOW, soon to be published on Amazon.com both as a paperback and a Kindle ebook.)

THE GREAT BELL OF FELLOWSHIP

Chapter five  PP 5

Zach could not speak until the hold on his face was eased slightly. “I fell into a tunnel and came out in this land. I don’t know who those others are. I just ran into them when I was trying to find my way back. Please, sir, do you know the way? My folks will be worried sick.” He could see the shock on Angari’s face as the Alari heard his first lie. “Get used to it, Angari, you’ll hear a lot of them!” he thought to his newfound friend.

Zach and his three companions have fallen into another section of the tunnels under the Barrier Wood while tracking those who stole the Great Bell of Fellowship.   They are immediately captured in a net although Angari, being invisible has been able to slip through and is watching from a distance. Stilts and Sparrow are left alone but Zach has been recognized as an earthling by the crooks and is being questioned.

Trying to confuse the crooks, Zach pretends not to know the others.  The fact that he is lying shocks Angari and Zach uses mindspeak to apologize to the Alari.  Mindspeak is used by the fallowfolk to communicate without speech and Zach discovered it as the group began using it in the tunnel.  The fallowfolk also use it to communicate with Zach as they speak since the earthling would not understand their normal speech.

The crooks have been shown another gateway into Windfallow by the demon who controls them and they have made a crude camp in the tunnel under the Barrier Wood.  They are completely unaware of the Alari since the windfallow angels are invisible to all but those who have the ‘Spirit of the Creator’ within them.  Angari must be careful however not to come into contact with the demon for those fallen angels are able to see the Alari.

We are midway through the first book and there is more adventure and more surprises to come.
