Thoheleth

Thoheleth is where the action begins for Siriad. Unlike Kesef, where the inhabitants have already strayed from God before the angels arrive, Siriad remains true to the Creator. In doing so, they win the Creator's protection. Now, we didn't want this to be too over the top, so most of the things God does in the book are like things today. You don't always know that God did it. Christians will see His hand, non-Christians will attribute it to "fate" or "luck" or "chance."

In our book, there are a few times when God makes his presence clear. Still, it is mainly the Iyr who see and recognize this. The place where this is most predominant is in the end of the book. It all takes place right at Thoheleth.

Thoheleth is also in the prophecy dreams that Enosh has. The interesting thing about prophecy is that just when you think you have it figured out something happens and you realize it was really that. Most prophecies in the Bible are two-fold. The prophecy can usually be interpreted in the immediate historical context and then they are interpreted again in the long-term (future) context. These prophecies tend to have more of a dreamlike quality to them. We will leave it to you to figure out if Enosh's prophecy is based in the time of the book or based in the future.
