The Witnesses Chapter 2: Echoes of Eden

As Fidel and Vera continue their journey through the sacred pages of Genesis, they find themselves drawn into the Garden of Eden—not as distant readers, but as present witnesses. There, in a realm of beauty and stillness, they encounter the serpent—Lucifer—who tempts them with promises of safety, riches, and subtle lies wrapped in half-truths. But Malak, the angel who watches in silence, reminds them through his stillness of the divine gift of agency.

This episode explores the quiet power of choice, the weight of temptation, and the echoes of a truth that still calls out from Eden. Through their resistance, the children come to understand the cost of faith and the courage it takes to walk away from the comfort of illusions. As they leave Eden behind, they are drawn into a new revelation—Adam and Eve have given birth, and Fidel and Vera stand face to face with Cain and Abel.
