Heaven's population had steadily been growing over the years. After another decade, God decided it was his turn for a little fun. There were many beautiful angels who were good candidates. But not just anyone would do. He needed someone who could stand as his equal and rule Heaven by his side. Eventually, he took a woman named Gloria. She was clever and sharp with a good sense of humor. And like him, she had multiple eyes. Not that it was a requirement to be his wife, but it was something they had in common. After spending some time with her, God invited her to stay by his side. Like anyone, Gloria happily accepted the offer. She helped him with all of Heaven's affairs.

But all wasn't as it seemed. Behind the curtains, trouble was brewing in Heaven's castle. God had many projects, some of which he couldn't (more like "wouldn't," to be honest) disclose. And Gloria was a liability. She was pretty keen and sure to catch on quickly. He couldn't afford to have her reveal his ulterior motives. But for now, God kept her around. She was useful and a delightful companion. The two remained married for a few years. Then she disappeared. It was soon concluded to be a "missing person" case, as the Humans called such situations. But the truth was buried deep. Gloria had been quite the pawn. And God had truly enjoyed his time with her. But that time was over. Her usefulness had run its course. And now she was gone. Nobody had any idea. And God aimed to keep it that way.
