Crane in the Field of Heaven

By Cerys Mansi

Crane in the Field of Heaven is the second book in the Counterfeit Wine series.

"Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers?" (Jeremiah 14:22).

Yes.

Why do so many terrible things happen to good people? These texts examine this question differently from the Judeo-Christian narrative that "It's God's will" or how "God works in mysterious ways." If the first image of God is the world, and it's in such a appalling state, what does that say of its creator? The protagonist allegorizes the life of Jesus Christ, and he's despised as the latter is described in Isaiah 53. His mother doesn't believe in him. The world is a finely decorated, materialist prison of sorts, and his soul is in slavery, trapped in his physical body. His salvation is ultimately dependent on turning away from a world that rejects him. In addition, he discovers that the existing, known "God" is the devil, a murderous liar, merciless, and worshipped by many; angels are slave masters; and demons are powerful but subjugate spirits from other cultures who themselves are interested in ascension and provide the protagonist with knowledge of future events and the internal development necessary to free himself from bondage and unite his soul with the angelic spirit from whence he descended. The true Supreme Being, the one Jesus refers to as his father, and the kingdom of Heaven await those able to remember through wisdom their eternal nature and transcend mortality.

Great lengths were taken to combine numerous elements of spiritual thought and reveal an entirely new story. If understood and administered correctly, the lessons may result in being able to make the "two become one" and "move mountains" as Jesus did. Not figuratively overcoming obstacles through faith, but by adhering to and applying his teachings readers can perform his works and more, including resurrection, just as he said we could. Ultimately, this story is about love and caring for something or someone more than yourself. May it serve as an exposition on the potential for tyranny when advocates are guided by a set of beliefs that encourages cruelty, chaos, and war, and also seeks to correct those historical fallacies with reinterpretations of prevailing views and hidden truths unveiled through deep, metaphysical interpolation and connecting with the unknown.

Seven years after surviving a near-death experience, a magician journeys into the abyss to chronicle the fallen angels. Crane in the Field of Heaven is the healing process undergone by one seeking renewal and examined through extended metaphor and narration, as the rebellious spirits topple corrupt religious institutions and liberate humankind from their oppressive creator.

The following pages in the Counterfeit Wine series were completed while the author was under the influence and advice of various spirits, benevolent or otherwise receptive, which include predictions that have come or are yet to pass and provide additional source materials to guide the reader throughout the story's progression. Predictions include the events in the Middle East and the mass immigration raids in the United States. Research for the project began in March 2023 and was first documented in September of the same year.
