"The Coming Race", Chapter VIII, by Edward Bulwer-Lytton

Will you look at that - the author put a pronunciation guide in the text for the name Taee!! Hallelujah!

Also: the author is really going back and forth now between longer and shorter chapters. Expect that trend to continue at least for a while still.

The picture used is "The Body of Christ Anointed by Two Angels" by Alessandro Allori.

I mean, it's a dude on a bed with two winged beings about him. So our narrator, Taee, and Zee. Amirite? I'm not doing very well coming up with images for these chapters :-/
