STORY
 
Mary Magdalene a little after dawn, in a simple road in the roman empire, recalls her life, and her love.

She remembers being the daughter of a craftsman, who was also a successful merchant. People from Egypt to Phrygia sought the wares of Magdala. But while most Jewish girls with her fortune thought of marriage. She sought betterment, she sought activity, she sought a better world.

And then her awakening when mercury, the ancient spirit of messages was furthest from the sun in the sky or closest to humanity, she went into the synagogue and proclaimed to the men, standing where women do not, breaking the mechitza barrier. The men felt humiliated, felt belittled, felt they had been dirtied by her presence. The men did not try to listen to her words, try to listen to her wisdom. They only saw a woman who was wrong, and cast her out of the synagogue and threw stones. But she did not die. She was not killed.

Some did not throw stones because they knew her father, some did not throw stones because they knew her, and a strong body was enough to crawl back to her home. Her father was worried. He knew the village will look on her suspiciously and will want to control her life. He told her she must go, to be free, from the eventual persecutions that will come toward her. He knew fully well; he could not protect her when he was away from all harms. And so, she left Magdala. On the road, she met another Mary, many jewish women were named Mary, but this woman was quiet. Her husband was a craftsman and she was delivering a craft to a friend. She saw the Mary from Magdala and her spirit seemed familiar. The older Mary went over to the younger and they talked. The younger Mary talked about a vision she had of a future without boundaries, absent the shackles that bind humanity. The elder Mary asked the younger Mary if she wants to talk to others who may listen. The younger Mary said yes, as they embraced.

The elder Mary spoke to the inn keep who knew her husband and said to tell her husband she will not be back, but she is safe. Over the next few weeks, Mary Magdalene became well known amongst the disenfranchised or abused women of Palestine. She even was able to communicate to her father who supported her quietly. One day a woman asked, what will all this talk do when we have to go back to the men who abuse us. Mary Magdalene asked elder Mary, is it possible, these women can go to her home on the way south, free from the Jewish rules, in Egypt or beyond. The elder Mary agreed. When the two Mary arrived at the elder Mary's home, they were accompanied by forty women, and a sunlight. A sunlight that can waken anyone from any sleep. Mary bathed in the light, still, and saw a man.
https://www.deviantart.com/springergirl07/art/Mary-Magdalene-172730760
He did not need to speak, but his walk seemed so gentle. The elder Mary told Mary Magdalene, this man is her son, Jesus. Mary Magdalene knew this man's calling. She realized what he can do. In a world where men cannot accept leadership from a woman, she saw a man who can, while giving men the face they need to be led a better way. And she gathered the woman in the sunlight with Jesus as the elder Mary watched, and her husband, Joseph, beamed with pride. From town to town, the women of Mary Magdalene spread the gospel or good news of Jesus. Where lepers were isolated, Mary and her women healed or comforted and Jesus was said to do it. Where people were said to be dead, Mary and her women tended them back to life and Jesus was said to do it. When men did not fish properly, Mary and her women, worked the nearby seas aiding the fisherman, and Jesus was said to do it. Mary had watched her movement grow. From one woman, to two women, to a group that threatened the order of things for the Jewish priests. Over time, men like Judas, became part of Mary's apostles, telling the other women, let those without sin cast the first stone. But other men came, at the behest of the jewish priest. Twelve of them came, who knew Jesus was not the miracle worker gossiped or rumored, but it was Mary Magdalene who needed to be stopped. Mary spoke with Jesus and told him, if he rejects these men it will destroy his image and all the work they have done. Thus, Jesus accepted these new apostles and though they tried to corrupt Jesus with gold or positions, he never wavered from the path Mary gave him, for he and Mary were already one in spirit, done beyond a temple/synagogue or place of worship. A simple ceremony under the sun. In desperation the twelve agents of the Jewish Priest, abducted Jesus and put him in the position of a Jewish murderer paying the roman guard to allow the switch. Mary tried to find him; her network unable to access the roman prisons. And then she heard a rumor that a jewish murderer had boasted he was freed for Jesus in a bar. Mary then realized what had happened. But it was too late. When she saw Jesus crucified for another man's crimes, she knew it was a sign.

She thought a caring, honest, loving man could be the face of a movement of women. But as she watched his bleeding body, she knew, that asked too much of him. Her father's kindness saved her from stoning the first time. Jesus's love saved her from death the second time. She must have cried all night. The next morning, Jesus's mother woke her. She wanted to know where her son was buried. The two Mary's went to the tomb and Mary Magdalene held her stomach and touched the stone covering the tomb. Suddenly, she had a feeling. And when she turned, she saw her husband. It was like the first time she met him. His mother cried and Mary Magdalene hand embraced his, and she had an epiphany.
https://www.deviantart.com/eldidechabo/art/Jesus-Mary-Magdalene-MSPaint-135772731
The two Mary's went back to Nazareth and spread the final gospel, that Jesus was resurrected. The twelve spies weeks later, checked to see if the tomb was empty... and it was. They went to Nazareth to confront either Mary or Joseph but none were there. They had left. The twelve searched and searched and eventually found the male member Judas. He tried to find a woman like Mary to start a new group, with him in the role of Jesus, but was unsuccessful. The twelve tortured Judas but he either did not know or was strong enough to not say the location to any member of Mary Magdalene's sect. The twelve eventually became the originators of Christianity, using remnants of what they experienced, pieces of a true movement to create another, all the while in awe to what they knew.
... while Mary seeing the child between her and Jesus running to her end her remembering
https://www.deviantart.com/tlacuilopilo/art/Mary-Magdalene-portrait-Maria-Magdalena-333225591
And, she smiles, in a new town, far from palestine, or the twelve spies, in the outskirts of the roman empire.
... today, few know the truth of Mary Magdalene, the movement she started, or its times. But, the children of her enemies cannot even deny, she was gifted, she had spirit. And, for now, that is enough, for tomorrow will be brighter, and it will shatter all lies with truth.

Title: SALVADORE'S SALTY SEA SHANTY

Three year have passed since Salvadore spoke his Ahabian plea and he is sailing the South Pacific at sunrise on the hunt for the Zeus Shark. The first incident was a year ago from a shark with an electric beard, some say look like jellyfish tentacles; Salvadore does not know where it came from; in his simple while strong passion, he does not need to know or want to know; he has two crew mates. The young Kathy, an oceanic biologist, want the body of the Zeus Shark to study. Micah, a Polynesian sailor, lost his siblings in an attack from the Zeus Shark; he alone can challenge the bloodlust from Salvadore. The early sunlight skates powerfully on the water pushing the slow morning shadows. Salvadore studied his prey, he knows it hunt at these hours. The quiet of the sea does not mask the tension between the hunters and the hunter. Salvadore think of Mr. Quint, and a song they made together he sing.

Farewell and a-dieu
To you pe-can wa-hi-ne
Farewell and a-dieu
To you wa-hi-ne beams
For we embrace hatred
through vendetta, in the sea
And soon, ever more
Shall you be our last see

And, a motion alert from Kathy's monitor...

from @HDdeviant
It is astronomical twilight. Seagulls crying danger in the least light. No horizontal boundary between sky over sea. Just glints from stars above an old fisherman ,in an sturdy old boat muttering to himself as he drink or wait, see.


Salvadore: Mr. Quint, you wa crazy Mr. Quint! You knew betta. Da shark came for your soul. You know, sea forget nodin Mr. Quint. You


A bump from something in the water alert a drowsy Salvadore.


S: Tha ain't no catfish, my net wa get one


Salvadore nearly rock to sleep and another bump, and he look over the side. He notice in the dark sea, shine. The shine rise or grow and he cognize a coin and another and more. A brilliant illumination made of coins float under Salvadore's ship. Before he can grab his net his mobile timer begin playing DDD from EXID. Salvadore lean back to eye it and cut it off. And while he operate the device, a shimmering set of coins interwoven in a net in the twilight encapsulate him plus his mobile phone and his boat like a shark jumping out the water to catch fur seals. In the morning, only DDD was found on the shore, and the fisherman made a song.


Ol' Salvadore, he ran from Quint
To save his lore, from a shark bent
And he did swore, forget no rent
But Ran seek more, than punishment
She like em poor, an' innocent
