PART ONE

TH FOLLOWERS

Some things that have been created by the mind and hand of God have been placed in the most inaccessible places on our world for a reason. Do not search them out, for one day they may be unleashed upon the world of men, and the minimal and horrible mistakes of our Lord God will become the inheritors of the earth.

—FATHER EMANUEL D’AMATO,

ARCHBISHOP OF MADRID, 1875
