Summary
God does not console us at the moment of death, Hannibal. He revels in it.
The distance between their fingers narrows.
Three centimeters.
Two.
One.
And then nothing.The bluff is eroding.
He had said once that he did not hide from God. This was not swagger. It was indictment. The stable door had not opened when small hands clawed at it. The prayer had been a child’s scream. If God delights in innocence, then God had eaten well that winter. Hannibal’s ethics—curated, exacting, merciless—were not a rebellion against morality but against divine hypocrisy. He would be kinder than God by being honest in his cruelty. He would be truer than God by loving without disguise.Series
