BLADE OF TRUTH EXCERPTS BY LALI A. LOVE

Run! The voices in her head thundered as panic took over her entire being. She could barely feel her legs. The weight of the metal fringe bore its cold, jagged claws into her shoulders. Without her sword, Roma was doomed.
The putrid stench of the Draco Lizzies assaulted her senses. She squeezed her eyes shut as forceful arms dragged her battered body along the lush island shrubs. Her powers were weakened by their dark crystals.
These ancient extraterrestrial entities represented the Dark Forces and had finally found her on the Earth plane, proving she could never outrun them. The vicious onslaught by the cold-blooded Lizzies on her beloved planet, Avalon, still haunted her Soul from a parallel timeline.
Welcome to your galactic initiation. Roma had waited lifetimes for this epic battle. As she pondered her past existence on Lemuria, Roma was determined to attract a much favorable outcome in this timeline, to change Goddess Gaia’s fate. She would not allow the vile Lizzies to continue their assault on Mother Earth.
The Galactic Council had summoned Roma to help humanity evolve through the density of the fourth-dimensional astral plane, launching the mighty StarSeed Quest.
The Sacred Light had activated millions of enlightened beings known as StarSeeds on Earth, dispensing them with their secret missions. These humans awoke at specific times around the world to remember their higher vibrational Galactic roots.
Each of them lit up with their encoded missions that originated from parallel Universes, star systems, and other planes of existence. Their rise in this timeline was to eradicate the unseen, sinister entity that plagued Mother Earth, and loomed in the shadows, feasting on humanity's negative thoughts, emotional anguish, and rancorous behavior.
Roma knew that the Lizzies were desperate to maintain their dominance over humans—especially after the demise of the Lord of Darkness. Their determination to enslave Gaia and drain her supreme plasma life source was a priority that exceeded all other nefarious agendas.
The aftermath of the Lyran-Draconis Galactic War served to be the largest catastrophic event that had occurred in this galaxy—possibly even the entire Universe.
Using the vigorous galactic loopholes, these malicious entities time-traveled to the present-moment reality on Earth in the calendar year twenty nineteen.
Feasting on the trauma-based reincarnation cycles, and karmic looping of perpetual conflict, the Lizzies controlled the collective thought patterns of the fourth-dimensional astral plane with psychic manipulation.
Roma understood the Lizzies were behind the fear-based belief systems, blood rituals, human trafficking, intergalactic slave trade, and childhood-wounding programming matrices. The chemical compound adrenochrome, released during mass human suffering, provided these entities with enhanced psychic capabilities upon consumption. Since they were missing this organic life force energy, the invaluable external source was crucial for their endurance.
As such, the Lizzies were determined to prevent Gaia and humanity to shift and cross over the ethereal bridge, into the fifth-dimensional love-consciousness existence of Sacred Light, where their powers would become futile.
Roma vowed to never allow the same horrific history of her beloved home to repeat itself, not in this timeline. She was summoned by the Lemurian High Council to drive out the dark shadows and protect sacred Goddess Gaia from extinction.
After all, she was a celestial delegate of the higher intelligence quantum Source energy—a cosmic survivor, a Warrior of Light, a Custodian of the Galaxy, and the defender of StarSeeds.
In captivity, Roma commenced the light code activation, a beacon, that would reach the Lyran High Council. Without her Blade of Truth, she had no choice but to surrender to her destiny and began channeling her location telepathically to the StarSeeds, Indigo Children, and Celestial Earth Angels.
Roma prayed to all that was pure and holy that the high-pitched sound waves were undetected by the demonic, callous Lizzies and their evil leader, Ciakar, the Wizard of Bondage.
This will not be the end, so help me Ka-ha-lee!
