Abigail: The Princess of a Princess

“Asilas was involved in black ops government projects that crossbred humans with the alien Drax race to produce hybrid humanoids that could survive in the realm of the Drax and essentially be blood factories.”

Abigail Sierra was on track to become the most powerful Spartan in Asilas’s army. So powerful, in fact, that she could have been the one to overthrow Asilas himself. He figured this out through a series of dreams, omens, and probing the young girl’s mind over the course of her training as a Spartan soldier. He forgo his plans to make her the premier Knight Spartan and savior of humanity –even as he held out hope she would change her perspectives and align herself with spiritual philosophies he subscribed to. However, she never showed any interest in religion and was too headstrong to be convinced there was a divine being, a God, a creator, and overseer of humankind, and thus she limited herself in particular areas of training that involved heightened consciousness and awareness in the universe. Abigail never wanted to be a “believer” in God or divine creation, and no amount of discourse with the king would or could change her mind.

Asilas’s plans for Abigail began from her birth. Her conception was part of a secret hybrid project that began long before Asilas became king. As a General in the army and a high ranking member of the Ordo, a very secret and powerful group of elitists that participated in occult rituals, Asilas stood with members of the Ordo as representatives of mankind as they hashed out alliances with alien races and manipulated governments around the world. Asilas was involved in black ops government projects that crossbred humans with the alien Drax race to produce hybrid humanoids that could survive in the realm of the Drax and essentially be “blood factories.” The Drax never paid much mind to Asilas, as he was seen as merely a human slave. However, some in the hierarchy of the Ordo were not immune to his abilities or persuasion and, over time, he was able to use his secret abilities to smuggle hybrid babies out of underground laboratories dotted around the United States. Each hybrid baby had human and Drax DNA, but were essentially human. The hybrids would later become his Spartan army because they were immensely more powerful both physically and mentally than pure humans. Asilas had a partner in this scheme –his former army comrade Quintin Capone, who had become a high ranking administrator in the New York City Public School System and eventually became its Chancellor. Capone used his position in the school system to place these hybrid children in schools with foster parents who were paid a monthly stipend to care for them and raise them as their own children.

The Lemuria Connection

Abigail was different than any other Spartan soldier. Her Drax DNA did not come from a Drax warrior; it came from Lemuria, a princess of the Drax High Order. Lemuria was the most powerful Drax on planet earth. Her Drax Lords seldom ventured to earth and preferred to reside in other interdimensional domains –leaving Lemuria as the sole ruler in the human domain. Lemuria used her own DNA to create clones of a special Drax warrior named “Russel” and created an elite guard to protect her while she dwelled on earth after the death of the Drax prince who proceeded her. With her DNA in the Russel clones, she could not only control each one, she could sense everything they sensed –so long she was within 99 miles of any of them.

Fortunately for Asilas and Abigail, Lemuria and the Drax tended to stay in cold regions, such as the northern and southern poles ,and remained as far from human activity as possible. Asilas was assigned to oversee the Drax elite guard cloning project out of sheer chance and had access to Lemuria’s DNA samples. He smuggled one sample out and created one hybrid baby from it. That baby was Abigail.

This was one of the reasons Abigail’s limitations frustrated Asilas to the point of exhaustion. Although he knew she held the key to become the greatest Spartan warrior on the entire planet, he also knew her unwillingness to receive God into her heart made her vulnerable to corruption and essentially make her a danger to his reign. In his original plans, Abigail would have lead the American Alliance to battle with the Drax after all nations on earth aligned with America for the Great Revolution and ultimately free humanity from the grip of the Monster Group. The only way Abigail would be able to remain strong enough to resist all temptations was to have a strong faith in God. This was how Asilas figured she could combat Lemuria’s control once she met the Drax on the battlefield. However, since she never accepted the notion of God, she would have eventually been commandeered by Lemuria and turn against America.

Abigail was merely a teenager when she began her training as a Spartan. From the onset, she demonstrated superior power over all other cadets. Asilas and Capone kept a very close eye on her development and determined Abigail would mature to become powerful enough to defeat whole platoons of Drax warriors. Her lack of spiritual enlightenment, however, sealed her doom and Asilas used his Ace card to destroy the Canadian government instead. She would naturally become too dangerous to him. The king mourned Abigail when she died in Ottawa, not so much because of his love for the girl, but because a major play in his master plan had to be scrapped. He reluctantly sent Abigail to her death prematurely simply because he had no other choice. This disruption in his plans presented a significant challenge and left a major void for the king and America’s Great Revolution that would come to an explosive eventuality in mankind’s greatest test in Antarctica.

Listen to Abigail’s final moments in season one’s finale.

Lemuria and the Drax High Order

The Drax were the most dangerous entities on earth and had been the secret human masters for thousands of years. Although Asilas was well aware of the Drax long before he was chosen by them to be King of America, there was much about them and their hierarchical system he simply did not know. As a member of The Ordo, Asilas had access to some of the most incredibly fascinating and horrifying realities about a system designed to keep human beings occupied with trivial matters and never seek to heighten their awareness or consciousness. If humans ever realized the true power of their minds, the Drax would never have been able to control them. Asilas knew this and was able to mask his true heart and intentions as he raised to the highest levels of The Ordo.

 

Lemuria was a Princess of the Drax High Order. Her role was to oversee and manage the affairs of people and delegate their human surrogates to create chaos, engage in senseless wars, use the military complex to develop high-tech machines of various types as disruptive apparatuses to manipulate mankind –even using weather modification technologies to keep humans in a constant state of fear. Lemuria, for all her thorough inclinations, was not a military strategist. It was never necessary for her to be this. However, when facing King Asilas and the encroaching American Allied forces, Lemuria would not heed any warnings from her advisors –not even from the Devil himself. She wanted to resolve the matter of ridding the world of Asilas on her own and take her victory back to the Drax High Order and stake her rightful claim to the line of succession and realize her ultimate goal of becoming the Queen of the Drax.

 

In King Asilas’s Revolution, there was one thing that was not quite clear: Why were the Drax not attacking humans out in the open? Asilas had hoped the taking of Europe, England and Africa would surely make the Drax face the American military in an open battlefield. He needed this to happen so the entire world would finally align with him and America. However, Lemuria continued to order the Drax to stay out of sight, as she was also aware of Asilas’s goal of uniting the world in his campaign to fight them. She did not want to make that unification happen easily for Asilas and decided to wait until he would have no choice but to fight them on their terms. This would ultimately lead Asilas’s Revolution to the ends of the earth –to the ultimate showdown between man and beast in the most inhospitable place on the face of the planet…Antarctica.

 

Lemuria believed if she stood her ground, the Drax warriors would destroy the human army. If successful, she would be hailed as the greatest Drax Princess in modern times and would surely be in line to be the next ruler of the Drax race. Her Drax warriors were the most insidious and powerful creatures this world had ever known, and it would take all of Asilas’s best military strategies to have a chance to win his Revolution and free humanity from their ultimate masters. Lemuria would defy even her most trusted and battle tested generals in her desire to defeat the American King in an epic war that would change the course of humanity for a thousand years. However, Asilas would lead his army into the belly of the beast and orchestrate the most dramatic assault the Drax had ever encountered.

The Importance of Quintin Capone

King Asilas is not a man who needs reassurances about the decisions he makes. He is the quintessential leader and does not rest until he completes his mission, and reflects on the costs once his objective is achieved. Which has mustered curiosity by some as to why Quintin Capone is such an important figure in Asilas’s inner circle. The easiest analogy to use when evaluating the situation and the people surrounding the king is the classic game of chess. The king has two bishops, two knights, two rooks, a queen, and two lines of pawns. By episode 4, we already know his queen and who his two bishops are: Quintin Capone and Dr. Ezekiel. These men give the king guidance and he trusts their points of view. Minister Jeremy Oreb falls into the category of a knight because Asilas sends him to meet combatants, terrorists, domestic rebels and other threats with the might of his guns.  President Jackson is a rook because he proves to be valuable to the king in terms of public opinion. He also maintains ties to the monster group. We also know who some of his pawns are: Abigail Sierra and Rachel Canaan, but Rachel was likely sacrificed in episode 4. When you look at the characters in the show through this lens, you begin to see how their maneuvering is determined. Each move is calculated with another anticipated by the king.

But how did Quintin Capone, a school chancellor for New York City Public Schools during the second civil war, become the most powerful “right-hand man” of the New Kingdom? The show does not give any clues as to how Capone became so trusted by Asilas. The novel does explain this in detail. Capone was once in the Army and served alongside of Asilas in their early years. Asilas ascended in rank and Capone left the Army due to an injury. They remained friends and stayed in touch over the years. To sum it up, during the war, the United States was in utter chaos -with battlefronts scattered across the entire country. The one place where the civil war was not felt so disruptively was New York City. School children continued to go to school and life was as normal as it could have been during such a tumultuous time. The establishment of Marshall Law at the conclusion of the war by General Asilas enabled school systems to be community hubs for dissemination of information, instructions, basic first aid, and a plethora of social services so people would not have to venture far from their homes during the transitionary period. In a large city like New York, this emergency system kept the enormous population from plunging into utter turmoil. Capone, along with the mayor, reassured everyone life can continue as normal as long as they followed the instructions given by Washington and General Asilas. While cities like Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles experienced great upheaval by a restless and paranoid population, New York was largely controlled and managed to stay peaceful during the government transition period. This decorum by New Yorkers on such a vast scale did not go unnoticed by Capone’s old friend, General Asilas.

When Asilas became king, the first person he asked to join his circle was Quintin Capone. For most, he was an enigmatic figure, but New Yorkers and people in the education field on the east coast knew Capone quite well. He was feared and despised by some, but respected by all. No one wished to cross him professionally or personally. So, to those who knew Capone, they were not nearly surprised to learn he would sit at the right hand of the king. The two men were very like-minded and always seemed to accomplish whatever they put their minds to. Their love and admiration for one another is evident in the way they converse. Capone, a brilliant man in his own right, was too smart to question the king when he knew his mind was made up. And whenever he spoke in contrast to the king’s ideas, he knew it to be wise to bow figuratively and literally. However, Asilas had no siblings and was not very close to many in his family since his days in the Army and Capone became his surrogate brother. He loved Capone for the figurative “brother” he was to him. But in the game of chess, Capone was his bishop and would sacrifice him only if absolutely necessary and only if he knew it would help him win the game.

The Homeland Defender’s Program

jvtorres Leave a comment

In Episode 7, Lord Joshua Jackson (the last president of the United States) enters King Asilas’s inner circle as a trusted member of the High Council. Lord Jackson references The Homeland Defenders Program when it is surmised people who’ve had the “fog lifted” from them engage in violent behavior and exhibit super human strengths. Jackson states certain measures should be limited to only those who need to have their “blood-thirst” quenched. But why exactly do people become “bloodthirsty” in the first place? No information or details about this program is discussed or revealed on the show, but it is clearly important enough to be a consideration as a counteraction of one of the most dangerous exploitations of human inhibitors on the planet.

What is alluded to by King Asilas and others is that the poison filter (code name Trishul -not mentioned in episode 7) removes inhibitors of the human brain and allows the brain’s capacity to be utilized to a much higher degree than normal. This increase in brain capacity results in humans becoming more powerful and seemingly more intelligent -drawing from some ancient knowledge source one struggles to interpret and apply in the modern world. Details of this reaction is discussed further in episode 8. Subjects acquire the ability to move objects with their minds and can communicate telepathically. These incredibly potent capabilities cause people to react violently when ancient knowledge surfaces and they realize their existence has essentially amounted to servitude.

In the early, experimental stages of the poison filter, Minister Oreb and his team of military scientists devised a contingency plan in case subjects became too powerful and violent to be contained. They discovered by turning their machine on and off at strategic times, they could tell who in their population of subjects would be prone to uncontrollable violence and super human strength, especially levitation and moving heavy objects with their minds. They called these individuals “Destroyers.” The Destroyers could be isolated and placed in special quarantine, where they could be studied further.

By sheer chance, one of their test subjects was a Satanist. Oreb and his team witnessed a group of Destroyers corner the Satanist and collectively decimated him by levitating him high up in the air and ripping his body apart while suspended in the air and then causing the pieces to go ablaze, incinerating him in midair. Then, they all levitated, encircling the ashes in a whirlwind. Later on, Oreb interviewed some of the subjects who remembered what they had done and asked them why they chose to kill one in their group the way they did. They all had the same answer; citing they just knew that individual was evil and partly responsible for their enslavement. They also revealed they simply could not stop themselves in this blood-thirst to eradicate anything touched by Satan.

Oreb and his team attempted to train these Destroyers as black op soldiers, but all endeavors to do so ended in failure. Oreb first took his wild ideas to turn these Destroyers into extensions of the military to the king, but Asilas understood the stark danger in releasing these people into the general public . There was simply no way of hindering them if they were out in the open. King Asilas instructed Oreb and his team to report only to him and not give details of their observations to anyone, not even other members of the High Council. Asilas wanted only a limited number of people in his inner circle to know the details of the Destroyers -still suspicious of a possible mole in his midst. So, they created the “Homeland Defender’s Program” as a means to code what they plan to do when they lift the fog on Americans.

King Asilas, Minister Oreb and Lord Roberts were the only members of the High Council who knew all the details of the Homeland Defender’s Program. Jackson mentioning it and Capone commenting on it was merely a way for King Asilas to make sure they were not the moles. After this test was completed, Asilas knew he could trust Jackson and Capone wholeheartedly. Originally, they wanted to test the poison filter on places like Las Vegas, a place surrounded by a desert in order to control the masses in case they needed to quarantine an entire city. But this idea was too risky. Instead, they used large underground bases and secret underground cities (Asilas only learned about these “cities” once he became king) to place and test the groups of Destroyers. Then, they would use the poison filter in increments in order to locate those individuals who could not be easily controlled and who would exhibit super human strength. What essentially amounted to private citizens suddenly being placed under arrest without breaking any laws would have created a public relations nightmare for the king. So, instead, he found creative ways to have these individuals register in the Homeland Defender’s Program. They received great benefits for their registration, but only under the stipulation they would have to report to undisclosed locations in times of a national emergency. This is how King Asilas was able to safeguard the quarantine of millions of Americans in the event the fog is lifted on citizens of the New Kingdom of America. The underground cities dotted across the kingdom were enormous and intricately connected through an elaborate tunnel system. Entire underground metropolitans (some as large as Houston) with hundred of thousands of people existed under everyone’s feet without ever even knowing it. So, Asilas realized it would be simpler to test people who were already underground and gave Lords Oreb and Roberts complete authority to carry out the tests on populations of people who were miles underground before trying it on people on the surface. Asilas also gave Lord Capone authority in this regard, as he relieved Oreb of is obligations with testing alongside Lord Roberts to complete the orchestrated actions pertaining to the occupation of Mexico.

The High Council was well aware of the program and knew eventually there would be millions of names on the list. They also knew the only thing that would keep them controlled long enough for their effects to wear off was the collective objective of destroying Satanists. King Asilas felt it was safe to let the High Council know the nuts and bolts of the program, but kept most of the minute details with Oreb and Roberts. The poison filter (Trishul) was such a powerful and useful weapon, King Asilas would one day became the most powerful man in the entire world because of it. The Monster Group became increasingly aware of Asilas’s weapon, but were not able to have someone close enough to the king to learn all the intricate details. For this reason, they had no choice but to keep a certain distance and hope Asilas would not send one of his own Destroyer infiltrators into their midst. However, their corner was shrinking and Asilas continued to close in on the Monster Group both on the surface and underground. Both the Monsters and Asilas proceeded with their respective plans and counter plans knowing the only resolve would be the complete annihilation of their opposition. Each were certain they would prevail.

Nabal: Wanted Dead or Alive

It tingled warm and strange, causing a sudden, faint shock down his spine which made the Spartan open his eyes and gasp. He realized a finger had been probing his brain and his body jerked to the pulse of his heart as a bloody hand pulled away and into view. It was King Asilas and he was looking closely at something. The Spartan slowed his rhythmic convulsions to a still.

Holding the small, pebble-like object between his index finger and thumb, the king asked the Spartan, “Do you know what this is?”

“I-I’m not sure.” He replied.

He held the tiny object up to the lights overhead and examined it closer as streams of blood ran down the backside of the king’s forearm. “It’s a bullet.” Asilas lowered it close to the Spartan’s face. “Do you see that it’s a bullet?”

“Yes. I see now, my king. It is indeed a bullet.” The Spartan spoke lucidly to the king’s delight. He was still breathing heavily, but otherwise appeared to be aware of everything around him. The Spartan moved his eyes throughout the room and back towards the king’s drilling stare.

“And do you know your name, Spartan?” The king leaned to the side of the Spartan’s head, evidently studying his wound.

“Yes, Your Majesty. I am Nabal…”
