Author's Note: In the vein of the master, C.S. Lewis, I have become a "supposer." So, what I'm writing here is not an allegory, it's a supposal. There are many points that are in a sense right, but not exactly representing the real Christian story in symbol. I'm supposing there's a wise and powerful godlike being called Bereshis, and a satellite that communicates similarly to the Holy Spirit, but not. I'm also supposing that planets represent our views and golden rings our values. This delightful tale cleverly involves C.S. Lewis and magical Apricus Jars, which preserve and transform the smoke of his untold stories lost in a blazing fire. You'll meet Bochord, the Polar Bear librarian and his elfin assistants Lux and Libby, as Jack reads his latest story to the Younglins in the Netzach Library. You'll discover that much of the symbolism revolves around discovering and forming your worldview. That is dependent upon how you view the concepts of origins, meaning, morality, and destiny. Also, much is ascribed to Francis schaeffer's work on the upper and lower stories of "how we cope" with religious and non-religious ideas or truths-and discover unifying principles. The Kings, their attitudes, and where they dwell symbolize this. You'll read it once as a children's story, but then you'll need to go back and reread it to fully appreciate the significance of the planets, kings, golden rings, and the new Capitol of Skopos.
