"When the thousand years are completed, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—and gather them for battle..." Number Zero looked at the ceiling, chanting softly. "...Their number is like the sand of the sea."
"Lunatic, spouting crazy nonsense again!" the Head Nurse spat out viciously.
The Head Nurse had no idea what Number Zero meant by "erroneous history" and "the gears of destiny." The passage he had just recited was from the Book of Revelation, and since the Head Nurse was Russian, her Orthodox faith was one of the three major branches of Christianity.
Nor could she understand why this madman was suddenly reciting an important passage about a "holy war" from the Book of Revelation, who the "older brother" he kept mentioning was, or what any of this had to do with wanting to see the Doctor. She only felt that this lunatic was impossible to reason with.
