Most of the research done for this short story comes directly from the Book of Revelation. Some insights into the opening of the Seven Seals can be found here at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_seals.
For inspiration for the prophetic nature of signs, I took mostly from the Futurist and Idealist models. They gave me most of the leeway in constructing a believable plotline. Some context was also taken from the Historicist viewpoint as well, with names and dates changed to be more relatable to the reader.
I would also like to honor the sources I borrowed material from, including:
The Pixies - Here Comes Your Man
Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit
Thin Lizzy - The Boys Are Back In Town
The Pixies - Monkey Gone To Heaven
The films Alfie, Star Wars, The Silence of the Lambs, Cool Hand Luke
The TV show That Mitchell and Webb Look
As well as Shakespeare's Macbeth, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky, and George Bush's 2002 State of the Union Address
Finally, a special thanks to Wattpad user 22ZaynisBeautiful, for the cover art.
Thank you for reading .
