No doubt this is true, but I'm having trouble reconciling it with a couple of quotes from Greg:
> Some practioners of Solace believe that there is a Judge and yes,
> some also believe it is the Prophet Malkion, the Embodied Truth,
> who weighs your nasty soul for purity.

Is the entity identified as Malkion in the Garden of Revelation simply one of those "magical images or resonances" of important figures found in the Malkioni otherworld?
