Episode 535: The Lord of the World - Book 3 - The Victory: Chapter 5, Part 3

Oliver, England’s secretive envoy, departs early Saturday morning from a deserted stage on Wimbledon Common, burdened by doubts about his missing wife and the morality of euthanasia. After a hot, oppressive trek up the steps, he boards a government‑run vessel bound for the Mediterranean, joining three fellow delegates—Maxwell, Snowford, and Cartwright—in a tightly guarded mission to launch the “volar” toward Palestine, coordinating with France and Spain under precise signal protocols. As the boat accelerates, Oliver watches London recede beneath a hazy, muted sky, feeling the surreal weight of the impending global operation and the personal turmoil that drives him onward.

From the book The Lord of the World by Reverend Robert Hugh Benson
