I was inspired by a book called October Skies (The end of it is similar to this Ficly) and Mormonism, a religion.

Brutal and very dark. Makes one wonder if it’s madness or divinity. Either way not a very happy ending.

Sometimes the future can look grim, indeed, but God is real, and is reported
to have intervened in things, even as God intervened when the obedient Abraham was going to obediently sacrifice his son, Isaak, and because Abraham was obedient to love, IT intervened, and manifest a goat to sacrifice, instead,
and God was well pleased in Abraham,
and promised to give him a new land in the future.
