Movie
Laurence : The Edge of Purity

by GR "Maya" Cogman
(Habbalite of the Media)

Yes, well, at this rate Hell will be running out of black feathers, real or ersatz.

Narrator : Long, long ago before he became Commander of the Host...

<scene>

Laurence, in full armour, standing in martial posture, wings outspread and sword drawn.

</scene>

Narrator : .. he was a Malakite like any other.

<scene>

A huge cave, full of marble ledges, dark-winged Malakim brooding on them like great birds of prey. Torches burn at various points, casting a bloody illumination across the scene.

</scene>

Narrator : The Malakim are deadly beings, bred for battle.

<scene>

Two Malakim embrace in a crevice: much suggestive writhing of bodies behind dark wings.

</scene>

Narrator : But some are exceptional.

<scene>

Young Laurence, sword brilliant in his hands and stained with blood, stands over the bloody corpses of several enemies, torso gleaming with sweat.

</scene>

Narrator : Such as Laurence.

<scene>

Laurence kneels before a brilliantly shining figure, too bright to be seen properly, and offers the hilt of his sword. "I swear myself to the service of Purity, now and always..."

</scene>

Narrator : But is any oath forever?

<scene>

Laurence, to a Seraphic companion, "We need to take the fight to the enemy! Out there in the Marches, and in Hell beyond, the pits of evil wait for us to bring the cleansing steel of purity to sear them clean. Whatever the price, whatever it may cost me..."

</scene>

Narrator : From pride...

<scene>

Laurence being nobly beaten to his knees, somewhere in the Far Marches, by hideous Ethereal creatures.

</scene>

Narrator : ... to a Fall.

<scene>

Somewhere in the dungeons of Lust, Laurence hangs in chains, several Servitors in bondage gear using whips on him while Lilims crawl around his feet whimpering.

</scene>

<scene>

More general orgy in the Halls of Lust, Laurence's dark-winged figure lost somewhere amid the squirming masses as the camera pulls back.

</scene>

Narrator : It's a long, hard way back to Purity.

<scene>

Laurence, supervising the bloody slaying of a number of endangered Ethereal species, and getting bloodily involved.

</scene>

<scene>

Harmless and well-endowed nymphs begging Malakim appealingly for mercy, and being brutally slain.

</scene>

<scene>

Laurence kneels in front of the cloaked Dominic, head bowed. "I confess my sins. I acknowledge my lack of purity. I beg for judgement, for punishment..."

</scene>

Narrator : Perhaps the past can be hidden. Or forgiven.

<scene>

Laurence, in armor, strides past ranks of angels, gaze on the middle distance and noble.

</scene>

<scene>

Novalis in her Glade, watching over a sleeping Laurence, who has the marks of tears on his cheeks. She murmurs, "It'll be all right, child, it'll be all right..."

</scene>

Narrator : But, in the end...

<scene>

A group of Malakim surround a female Malakite. One of them spits at her, "You shamed us. You defiled yourself."

</scene>

<scene>

A beautiful female Impudite embraces the chained Laurence from the Halls of Lust, body locked round him.

</scene>

<scene>

Dominic, backlit by a brazier, holding a length of iron with the tip glowing white-hot.

</scene>

Narrator : ... can one ever forget?

<scene>

Laurence bends his head to return the Impudite's kiss.

</scene>

Screen goes black.
