Abstract:
Meet Jared of El, a roguish, long-lived adventurer who wanders through the Old, New, and Lost Testaments. His story begins on First Earth. There is conflict between the Lands of El and Nod. First Earth is a wild, wonderful, violent place. Jared loves it, God does not. Jared and his Sethite brethren build farms, cities, ships and pyramids; battle Cainites, giants, halflings and Nephilim. Myth springs from some ancient source, the most ancient being the lost world recorded in Genesis 6 where “The Sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them,” where there were “Heroes of Old, Men of Renown.” Jared, brother of Methuselah, is one.
