There are two sides for everything in the universe. The side we see and accept as fact and the other side of speculation and faith. Proving or disproving faith with cold hard fact was what Millie Hamilton had spent her whole life doing. Her goal was to answer the unanswerable questions of life. Who we are, who we’ve been and of course where are we going, but none of those occupied her mind more than this one: Is there a God?

She’d spent twenty years off and on trying to construct a mathematical formula to scientifically prove or disprove the existence of God and the heavens. Late one night Millie finally found her correlation but not exactly the one she was looking for. She accidentally found she was very close to proving the existence of God’s counterpart, the Devil. Millie figured that with the right number combinations she could actually catch a brief glimpse of Hell.

The problem was Millie was right. When the numbers lined up the window to Hell opened up, releasing Satan into our world. Millie never stopped to think if she could close it or not.

Before she hanged herself, Millie wrote a simple note: I’m sorry.

So began two million years of darkness.

Good going, Millie. Thanks a lot.
