Apologies for the delay! As detailed in the blog, my mouse broke the other day. If you can donate even just a dollar to help cover the cost of a new one, it would be hugely appreciated.
Park: Let’s get this over with. I challenge you.
Walker: I accept! Why do you make it sound like a chore?
Ah, there we go.
I always feel so refreshed after the transition to Meggido, don’t you? It’s quieter. And especially when you’re coming from a city, you can taste the difference in the air.
Meggido?! That’s…not good. A dozen kinds of not good. It means Ann may think this is hastening the Apocalypse.
On the contrary – that’s AWESOME.
They’re so elegant. Polar bear with a pocket- pretty cool. Meggido, huh? Well that’s rather alarming…
Could someone please explain to me the significance of the name Meggido?
Meggido – it was a city mentioned a couple of times in the Old Testimate/Torah. It is also considered to be the base word from whence comes Armageddon. In the New Testament, Armaggedon is the city, the plains, or mountain (which doesn’t actually exist at the moment) near said city, where the rulers of the world will come together and probably fight as part of the END TIMES! *cracka-thoom!*
What the beloved readership is worried about, if Walker has named the place aptly, is that these fights are the fights mentioned above, with the Masters being the afore mentioned Rulers. Thankfully, only two Masters are ever in a fight at a given time, so its not like its the massed group fight so described.
I mean, you’d need at least three humans present to even consider it a group, wouldn’t you? And that’s never…darn it Sparrow…
Sparrow is the Anti-Christ. That TOTALLY works.
Meggido. Cool beans. My husband went there once. I assume Ann means it metaphorically and not the actual place.
Yeah I am also assuming that is just what this individual calls this mysterious land and not its actual name. After all Timothy thinks its a reflection of the Garden of Eden.
But having seen the actual Meggiddo (not in person) it kind of ruins the whole forest paradise feel

Apparently the final battle is supposed to be around that hill there for some reason.
Totally unbased guessing: The Beings are fighting for the title of the Beast. There hasn’t been a winner yet, though.
Well THAT’S a deeply horrifying concept that is all too easy to believe.
