The text, An Answer: Pagan Mythology in the Shur by Matthew Sawyer is a creative transcript of a speech given by the clerical layman, Mr. BInger, This work underlies the religions practiced by the Chosen, Unchosen and heathens of the Shur desert. Here is proof the ancient pagan knew about alien gods, discovered carved into crumbling sandstone tablets. What comes after the pagan clans of the Shur have gone extinct is told in the two volumes of The Waste and the story entitled Gaunt Rainbow.
