Believers Born

"The African, i.e., the Black Mab (Woman) is a believer born. He did not wait for the Books revealed to be convinced of the existence of a Force; a Power Source of existence and motor actions and movements of people. But for him, that force is not outside of creatures. It is in every being. She gives life to ensure its development and, possibly, its reproduction."
