Ergo the vision in Isaiah CLEARLY includes the seraphim pooping everywhere like pigeons.
Great gifts for Him! What do you give the young man in your life this Christmas? Why not give [the magical sword Rhindon]? Pairs well with [a shield bearing the crimson figure of a lion]!
Gift ideas for Her! Why not try [healing cordial made from the flowers that grow in the—]
