 It is our purpose in setting forth this history to provide the Faithful with a true understanding of the history of Christendom, and with hope for the future. The Empire may lie in ashes, but it was always from the ashes that the Phoenix rose again in glory.- Seldon’s Imperial History, “Preface”.

Seldon's IMPERIAL HISTORY

Scan of the Tittle-page of Cardinal Seldon’s IMPERIAL HISTORY, 1918 English Edition

An important and rare book, Cardinal Seldon’s Imperial History, is one of the few writings which preserves the enigmatic verses:

Wolves with the hair of Ermine
Crows that are crowned as Kings
Though these things be many as vermin
ONE shall outlast these things

In the mountains an EAGLE shall rise
The Flag of the Desert shall burn
Renewed forever shall be old allies
And the Knight Twice Crowned shall return

These verses are found elsewhere in fragmentary forms, the first verse often being misattributed to the revolutionary poet Swinburne (see: Hercule F. Duroc on the History of Heiligwaldenstein), and the second attributed (rightly or wrongly) to Tyrolean folklore. It is rumored that a third verse once existed beginning A SWORD shall be his token, but if this is so, the verse is lost.

John Lorran, The War for Christendom, Tower of Ivory, UN

The InterNational Academy is the United Nations’ advanced officer training facility for cadets in the Conscriptee Program. Located on an uncharted nearly inaccessible rocky isle in the North Atlantic, the main base is a ivory octagonal tower, heavily guarded. The facility’s current commander is a certain Colonel Branden, a high rankly UN official who reports directly to the President of the Security Council, Gen. Tervagan Eisengrimm. Strangely enough, the INA is a point of international tension between the UN and its allies, the Golden Caliphate and the Gòngchǎn Sphere, who press Eisengrimm to disband it.

Hero, John Lorran, The War for Christendom, Tower of Ivory

The old fairy tale makes the hero a normal human boy; it is his adventures that are startling; they startle him because he is normal.– G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy

John Lorran is a fifteen year old boy an inch or so taller than average height, with a slight (but not prominent) elongation of nose and chin, brown hair, and intelligent brown eyes, born in Innsbruck, Tyrol on the fifth of April. Well trained with firearms, he is also an expert swordsman, and excels at horseback-riding. A cautious lad, but a natural leader (though often abstracted in thought), his past is as secret as his real name, which is Sorry (no that’s not his name), but you have to buy the book to find  out what his name really is. Do you think I would put spoilers like this on the web?!*.

Catholic Encyclopedia, John Lorran, Tower of Ivory, UN

Tower of Ivory–

When a fifteen year old boy named “John Lorran” is forced into the United Nations’ International Academy, he has no idea what he is doing there other than becoming a good soldier. But when he discovers the UN’s secret agenda and his training comes into conflict with his childhood faith and ancient heritage, it is up to him to decide what to do with his life.

To be published soon!
