December 1960 and star cruiser ‘Deliverance’ manoeuvres into earth orbit.
“Remember! Lead them not into temptation, deliver everyone from evil, no trespassing, and plenty of bread.”
“And no wine trickery. We wouldn’t need second comings if you lot did the job properly first time,” the captain gestured at Messiah 109’s scarred palms. “You won’t be called Jesus this time either, that’s asking for trouble.”
The captain pushed the ‘DESCENSION’ button and Messiah dematerialised. At that exact moment in the back of an Austin A40 somewhere in Wales, a surprise child was born unto Keith and Olwen Evans; the baby Martin.
