“Imagine an adversary that hates you, your family, and friends? Now what if that enmity was from the day you are born till your last breath? And this enemy of yours sees you from places where you can’t see him?
Satan has taken a vow to get us all off the straight path and along with his cohorts he goes about that task relentlessly. The only thing Satan wants is to fill Hellfire with us all and the guidance of our faith is the biggest deterrent to the calls of Satan, and just as he is relentless in taking people off the path, we need to be more relentless in staying on it!
My name is Candace and this is my story."

~ Scene from inside Saint Louis Cemetery - Silhouettes of birds flew home across a sky that is now magenta; and the sun is half into the water, but its reflection in a small pond near Candace's room, made it look complete. The mauve of the dusky sky intensified, and in just a while, the biggest star had set, giving way to a thousand others ~
Candace: I seek refuge in the Lord of daybreak. From the evil of that which He created. And from the evil of darkness when it settles. And from the evil of the blowers in knots. And from the evil of an envier when he envies.
~ Sitting on a rug of prayer, she slowly stood up and made a prayer before blowing an air on her both palms and places it over her face ~
Candace: We have told that when the wings of the night spread – keep your children in, for the devils come out at that time. Close the doors and mention the name of God, for the devil does not open a closed door. And tie up your waterskins and mention the name of God, and cover your vessels and mention the name of God, even if you only put something over them, and extinguish your lamps.
~ She puts the rugs to its place and blows out the extra lamps at the outside before getting back into her room ~
Candace: The wise men always said that one of the differences between the nature of God and the nature of Satan is that; God wants us to believe in His existence while Satan doesn't. To some extinct it is very true. The second greatest trick that he comes up with to those who confidently believes in his existence, is to convince them that he is just another good guy.
~ The breezy wind coming out of her windows right into her room, waving her loose dark brown outfit ~
Candace: Our imaginations are subjective. People tend to think about so many things because they are exposed to extreme weird stuff. Some stuff that might not even exist which ends up hallucinating them to create a paradigm of their own and live in that reality. Dreams are solely a spiritual experience and cannot be observable. There is no room for empiricism for that and you cannot scientifically verify it. However, no one can deny their occurrence in our REM sleep. Because we all have got this ability to dream and narrate it to others. Just to clarify everything that some people have developed this whole idea that I started a new trend of calling people crazy for their personal experiences with the devil. Rejection of the devil? Bad call, because the Magnificent will never do that. As I said earlier, the greatest trick of the devil is to persuade you that he does not exist. And if I happened to believe that than I will be in a huge error.
~ A tiny cup in her hand and a hot kettle in another indicating that she is about to pour some tea into that small container ~
Candace: People throughout the history have been claiming so many things over the name of spirituality. Some said that they talked to God while other said that it was the devil. How do you reconcile that? In fact, there are more people who made fraudulent claims to gain the worldly powers and they failed miserably. Religion is man-made tool to control the world - ever heard that line before? The question isn't whether devil influenced you or not. The question is...
WHAT KIND OF GOLDEN FEATHERS YOU'VE GOT, THAT GOD OR DEVIL WILL TRY TO GET IN TOUCH WITH YOU?
~ Uttering that she stares at the camera with her eyebrows raised and a smirk, asking question through her expression ~
Candace: But the most important question is, how do you change the landscape of the history with the message that has been delivered to you regardless of whether it is from God or the Devil?
~ Raising the cup right near her pink lips, taking the first sip of the tea she made ~
Candace: Imagine if your daughter walks up to you and says, "Dad, I was hearing some random voices in my head and now I am pregnant with a child who's name is the Messiah." How would you respond to that? I am sure the very first task you will execute is to first call a psychiatrist and then do your best to find out who's the biological father. Right? This is exactly how Mary was treated by her own when she brought baby Jesus to them - except that God was really with her. People say, God works in a mysterious ways. Partially He does but I say that the devil works more in mysterious ways. When he wanted Adam and Eve to disobey in the Garden of Eden, he had to disguise himself as a serpent. He loves tricking people, he loves to hallucinate them and whisper things that don't really matter or have any worldly benefits to either you or your fellow men. He promises us, and stirs up vain desires within them; but know that the devil promises nothing but deception.
~ Taking a few more sips of the tea, she leans to the wall where her Intercontinental championship is hanging ~
Candace: Twlight, I don't know what made you a number one contender for .. MY ... Intercontinental championship. I found you sitting on the sidelines for past few weeks while I am getting some hardwork done in both SFT and ICW. But since you are now number one in the queue already then I must wish you a Congratulations. However, this expression is only restricted to the fact that you are awarded a match for the Intercontinental title at Titans 90. Because it is very unhealthy for you to expect another 'Congratulations', in case you are dreaming about taking this title away from me. I am sorry if I was not clear but I did tell Cypher too that it is not happening anytime soon and I really meant it. Look what happened at LL finale? He miserably failed, and so will you. I don't see it as a bad idea that you can refurbished your skills with me in the ring and I am sure that I can learn some good moves from you too. But hoping that you are going to walk out with IC title after the match, will easily cause you a heavy stress after you get to know that you couldn't do that. So my advice for you is this.
~ Finishes her tea, she puts the cup to the side table and unhooks the SFT IC title from the wall and puts right over her shoulder ~
Candace: Feel free to enter the ring with me but once the bell rings you gotta keep your wishful thoughts restricted and imagine that it is going to be a one on one match with no championship on the line whatsoever. Put your index fingers right inside your ears when the ring announcer will do the match's announcement. I know that can distract, deceive and later dismantle your physical as well as mental health. Because once the match is over, you will be leaving the ring empty handed and that's not a prediction but a SPOILER! So do your body, your health, your brain a favor by not imagining more than you deserve. Maybe later this year, or on Christmas or in 2021 you get an opportunity to hold the IC title. But at Titans 90? No, this is very uncanny.
~ She is watching the sunset at the horizon, spreading its largess into a grateful sky. Rich hues of red blended with oranges, purples, crimsons. Her spirit soared at the sight as she gets herself ready to fall into a timeless existence, ready for the protective blanket of night and new dreams ~
