Chapter 12

Post by Freakzilla »

These are illusions of popular history which a successful religion must promote:
Evil men never prosper; only the brave deserve the fair; honesty is the best
policy; actions speak louder than words; virtue always triumphs; a good deed is
its own reward; any bad human can be reformed; religious talismans protect one
from demon possession; only females understand the ancient mysteries; the rich
are doomed to unhappiness . . .

-From the Instruction Manual: Missionaria Protectiva

Muriz has six men bound in a cave, his son, Assan Tariq nearby. As a rite of manhood for the Cast Out of Shulock, Muriz has Assan kill the six men. They were pilgrams who stumbled upon Jacurutu while seeking the old ways. Muriz instructs Assan not to tell The Preacher of this.
They were destroyed because they lied pretentiously. Have no fear that my wrath
will fall upon you because of your innocent mistakes.

~Leto II, God Emperor
