The Gospel according to Luke is the first part of a two-volume work that continues the biblical history of God’s dealings with humanity found in the Old Testament, showing how God’s promises to Israel have been fulfilled in Jesus and how the salvation promised to Israel and accomplished by Jesus has been extended to the Gentiles. The stated purpose of the two volumes is to provide Theophilus and others like him with certainty—assurance—about earlier instruction they have received. To accomplish his purpose, Luke shows that the preaching and teaching of the representatives of the early church are grounded in the preaching and teaching of Jesus, who during his historical ministry prepared his specially chosen followers and commissioned them to be witnesses to his resurrection and to all else that he did. This continuity between the historical ministry of Jesus and the ministry of the apostles is Luke’s way of guaranteeing the fidelity of the Church’s teaching to the teaching of Jesus. Luke’s story of Jesus and the church is dominated by a historical perspective. This history is first of all salvation history. God’s divine plan for human salvation was accomplished during the period of Jesus, who through the events of his life fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies, and this salvation is now extended to all humanity in the period of the church. This salvation history, moreover, is a part of human history. Luke relates the story of Jesus and the church to events in contemporary Palestinian history for, as Paul says, “this was not done in a corner.” Finally, Luke relates the story of Jesus and the church to contemporaneous church history. Luke is concerned with presenting Christianity as a legitimate form of worship in the Roman world, a religion that is capable of meeting the spiritual needs of a world empire like that of Rome. To this end, Luke depicts the Roman governor Pilate declaring Jesus innocent of any wrongdoing three times. At the same time Luke argues in Acts that Christianity is the logical development and proper fulfillment of Judaism and is therefore deserving of the same toleration and freedom traditionally accorded Judaism by Rome. The prominence given to the period of the church in the story has important consequences for Luke’s interpretation of the teachings of Jesus. By presenting the time of the church as a distinct phase of salvation history, Luke accordingly shifts the early Christian emphasis away from the expectation of an imminent parousia to the day-to-day concerns of the Christian community in the world. He does this in the gospel by regularly emphasizing the words “each day” in the sayings of Jesus. Although Luke still believes the parousia to be a reality that will come unexpectedly, he is more concerned with presenting the words and deeds of Jesus as guides for the conduct of Christian disciples in the interim period between the ascension and the parousia and with presenting Jesus himself as the model of Christian life and piety. Throughout the gospel, Luke calls upon the Christian disciple to identify with the master Jesus, who is caring and tender toward the poor and lowly, the outcast, the sinner, and the afflicted, toward all those who recognize their dependence on God, but who is severe toward the proud and self-righteous, and particularly toward those who place their material wealth before the service of God and his people. No gospel writer is more concerned than Luke with the mercy and compassion of Jesus. No gospel writer is more concerned with the role of the Spirit in the life of Jesus and the Christian disciple, with the importance of prayer, or with Jesus’ concern for women. While Jesus calls all humanity to repent, he is particularly demanding of those who would be his disciples. Of them he demands absolute and total detachment from family and material possessions. To all who respond in faith and repentance to the word Jesus preaches, he brings salvation and peace and life.

They fought each other for their country. They shed blood everywhere just for peace. They died and disappeared and their bodies were respected by the people of their respective countries for what they had given. A war involving two men who have the rank of Major in the army, who are enemies, from different countries, must end with the harsh reality that the war they are participating in is not for the peace of their country. They were betrayed, betrayed by the superiors of their own country, then died in that rotten war and were reborn in another world at the same time and became twin brothers.

“Tell me you want me as badly as I want you,” his breath came out hot and heavy on my face was so close to mine. I could smell him. “No, I d-don’t want you. Leave me alone.” I tried to say but my voice came out choked and breathy. He pulled back and my eyes immediately flew open. His eyes bored into me with such intensity that I could feel it in my core. “I’ll make you admit it one day and then you will be mine,” he said huskily and then pulled himself back from me, turned on his heels and walked away.

For generations, the islands of Tilbara lived in fragile harmony. Amakatsu, Harama, Shinganatsu, Evalia and Durama believed themselves safe beneath the silent guardianship of forgotten myths—Rudhana the Seer of Roots, Nagalira the Mirror-Serpent, and the unnamed echoes said to exist inside the Dreamscape, a realm between memory and reality. But peace ends the moment strange creatures—half-dream, half-flesh—spill into Harama. These are no mere beasts; they are Dream-Born, abominations leaking from a fractured rift deep beneath the world. Kabe Hiroki and his younger brother Ken, two academy youths with simple expectations, are dragged into the unfolding disaster when the Rift Beneath Harama erupts. Students vanish into echo storms. Some return… rewritten. Others never return at all. Harama barely survives the catastrophe, saved only through the desperate sacrifice of Tina-sensei, whose forbidden “Falling Orchid Seal” halts the collapse—but costs her life and fractures the island’s stability. As Trails flicker across the sky and Anchors awaken for the first time in centuries, Ken and Kabe become tied to forgotten history. The brothers discover that the Dreamscape is not a myth—it is the birthplace of the first memories, of the Five Pillars, and of ancient sins concealed by time. Through shifting maps, rewritten names, and ghostly echoes, the truth emerges: someone is altering the world itself. This manipulator is revealed to be Arcana, the First Upper Rank of the Memory Theater—a master of rewritten histories, guided by unseen powers in Kurogane. As Durama falls, the Trails ignite and a catastrophic Memory Storm tears across Tilbara, erasing, rewriting, and reshaping reality. With the Fifth Trail opening above them, Ken and Kabe cling to each other as the world fractures.
