Failed Schemes

Jaldabaoth believed his plan was perfect.

As a god of destruction and creation, he lives for the sole purpose of devouring worlds and reshaping the fragments into his own perverse image.

So when the wife of Yahweh herself declared that she desired to create a new world with as little interference from the gods as possible, he could not resist the allure of what he was certain would be his greatest meal yet.

Because the gods are not allowed to interfere in worlds without sufficient influence, he needed an apostle, a mortal to spread his name and tales of his power throughout the world of Dola.

But how was he too accomplish such a task with a limited amount of power to exert and no idea where to begin?

Surprisingly, the answer was not found in that world but another.

As Yaldabaoth was absentmindedly observing the original world created by Yahweh, he found a fragmented soul that was somehow functioning perfectly.

He wasn't comatose, nor was he mad.
