I'd be impressed! I wonder if it's a short application process.

I don't really know you much at all, but I know good news when I hear it. Congratulations!

I might have found some next to our money tree in the back yard.

The first miner to find one picks it up and the heat from his hand starts a reaction and it begins to glow and become intensely hot. The miner calls it a handstar. Or perhaps handnova

The engineers that work on them can be called starlords (I could only find Star-Lords on the net). Novalord has been used.

Let me suggest:
Fusolite (I have a hard time leaving fusion behind)
Helio-gen (go a notch up on hydrogen) Heliogen is taken
Heliofuse
Tritarium (no long i's, long a, and emphasis on second syllable)

It also harkens back to Custer's Last Stand, which might be good. There's a mysterious aspect to it. People might ask what does that mean? So my vote is for Satan's Last Stand.

But I also like Satan's Last Gambit. Or Satan's Last Gamble.

A few thoughts:
Lord of the Earth - helps a little bit with shortening it
Earth's Lord - seems too abbreviated.
Earth's Supreme Lord
Final Gambit (gambit means calculated move)

Too bad! Wasn't Return of the King from LOTR?

How about The End War?

Well written stuff, Dirk. Some thoughts:

>>Satan and sinning humans, change your ways or Revelation is what will happen to you. It's God's final warning.>> From what I understand, Satan cannot turn back to the light. It's all over for him and his demons. But this is the quandary because why make the bet if there is no hope anyway? Therefore, I have to wonder if Satan has decayed over the millennia or very long ages ago. Hitler by the end of his life was probably in bad shape. I've heard he was drugged up and under some intense pressure. So perhaps Satan has degraded mentally and is beyond purely logical thinking. He doesn't care if God is omniscient. He is the great and awesome Satan and knows he'll win. This is just a thought...

God can't always say what might happen because where does faith and obedience come in? He basically tells Abraham to sacrifice Isaac and that's it. Abraham trusted in His promises, so he almost killed Isaac. Also, they had a covenant with each other which was very serious.

I did find this: Catholics interpret this final book of the Bible far differently than some of our Christian brethren in that we see its meaning as symbolic, rather than literal.

>>Humans, being smart too, have enough intelligence that they can figure this out as well (hell, I did, and my brain's not exactly firing on all thrusters, lol). It's just that most humans suck at interpreting the Bible correctly (45,000 denominations and counting), so most Christians think Revelation is literally what will happen.>> OUCH! So true that we Protestants have made denominational splitting into an art form. However, just as a minor note, I think most Christians think that Revelations is figurative or symbolic since many Christians are Catholic, Orthodox, and some protestants might agree with them.

Good comments K. But surely omission CAN be a deception.

Dirk:
If God is omniscient then He should know the outcome. So, He won't bet against Himself. Satan is desperate and will try anything.

If there are gaps in Revelations, then can your story fit into those gaps? The Chosen does stuff like that. Ultimately, Revelations states that God wins. We'll see the details as they unfold.

I'm trying to be somewhat theological... I hope this helps.

Satan rebelled and started the whole conflict. He is already condemned to hell (Matthew 25:41). Fogging his mind doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

I don't know if it's needed but I've also read that Satan cannot read our minds.

Ya gotta make room for Leonardo and his taxi. Create some story around him. That guy is a good idea.
