Anguish Lorrene Desbien

Scarlet Fever almost killed Deuteronomy when he was a baby. It was in his mother's arms that he had his first vision, one he largely forgot, but one that will come back to him at the end of his life...and the end of the world. He carries in his drunken, old mind the secrets of eternity. As he becomes weaker and his dreams become more prophetic in nature (signalling a cataclysmic end to the world), he melds his conscious self with his dream-world self. Despite a looming deadline ticking (unbeknownst to humanity) people continue to chase behavior lacking redemption, possessions instead of substance, and indifference over commitment.
