    About this ebook

    A Reign of Blood Series Companion Story

    These are the journeys of Miel, the Keeper of the journal.

    The workings of heaven are shrouded in mystery and myth, leaving us to only theorize as to what awaits us when we pass.

    There are those among us however, that are special cases.

    These are good people that have committed a horrendous crime, such as murder.

    What makes their cases special however, is the fact that by committing these egregious acts, one could argue that they have made the world a better place.

    A heavenly court of Archangels is forced to consider these special cases, holding in their collective hands the fate of the souls that come before them, but only one among them, Rashnu, recognizes that these souls cannot be judged on just the outward details.

    Miel, the lowly angel assisting him is tasked with traveling the world to gather the real facts, facts that will hopefully lead to their salvation.

    The Miel Chronicles is a collaborative effort created by J.T. Lewis to work with other authors on a special project. Elijah, coauthored with Alexia Purdy is the second of these stories and can be read on their own.

      Mythos

      The workings of heaven are shrouded in mystery and myth, leaving us to only theorize as to what awaits us when we pass.

      Generally speaking, we like to think that we all fall into two distinct groups: those that live a good life and go to heaven, and those that don’t and are destined for another realm.

      There are those among us however, that are special cases.

      These are good people that have committed a horrendous crime, such as murder.

      What makes their cases special however, is the fact that by committing these egregious acts, one could argue that they have made the world a better place.

      The premise of The Miel Chronicles is that there is a heavenly court that is forced to consider these special cases, holding in their collective hands the fate of the souls that come before them.

      Three archangels make up the Court of Souls, but only one among them recognizes that these souls cannot be judged on just the outward facts.

      He alone will take it upon himself to dig into the sordid details surrounding the crimes in question. But he is a busy entity, and unable to traverse the world in search of evidence.

      Miel, a lowly angel that can walk among us, travels the world in his stead. Tasked as an investigator by the archangel, her job is to gather facts. But more than that, she must capture the emotions that led to the act in question, as well as any evidence of repentance.

      It is this recording of emotions in the Journal of Souls that will ultimately clear, or convict the soul.

      These are the journeys of Miel, the
