Guardians of Prophecy
#8
Annoyed. The man was annoyed by John's comment. Annoyed but not offended. He almost appeared pleased that John had rightly assessed the situation, but displeased that John voiced it a loud. A many layered man indeed.

A prophetic writing that was over 10,000 years old? Armende was in possession of 'merely a translation of an older record easily ten thousand years old'
? He said it in such a matter-of-fact manner that John believed him. Even if this was the only piece known to be that old John was sure that Armande was in possession of many works older than the ones that John had uncovered. John wondered if Armande had the original pieces or just transcriptions. No, John wondered what else Armande might be willing to share. And at what cost.

Cuneiform script was the oldest writing system known to exist, but it is generally believed to be only 5500 years old or so. Sumerian being the oldest form commonly known to exist followed by Akkadian. "Was it originally in cuneiform script or something older?"
John had the feeling that Armande was baiting him, but it didn't matter. The hook was set.

"The Great Serpent. More accurately, it is ouroboros. The ouroboros is what is torn from his flesh. The first part of the translation you shared also seems to lead to Brandon. Evil Power? That seem to suggest a Good Power. Is it safe to assume that the Ascendancy can do... things?"
