            Transcript of Interview with Patrick Edward Mallory, December 21, 2012

 

 

 

 

Lancaster: Raped her? Are you making an on record accusation?

 

Mallory: I am accusing no one; I am merely stating a fact.

 

Lancaster: And what has this alleged act to do with anything?

 

Mallory: Everything!

 

Lancaster: Please, don’t stop then, go on.

 

Mallory: May I have some water?

 

Lancaster: Of course.

 

Brief pause as the subject receives and drinks a glass of water.

 

Mallory: Thank you very much I was getting parched. I’ve forgotten how dry the air is in this part of the country, very dry. And the altitude, my goodness it makes me dizzy, I haven’t been back here in eight or nine years. I tell you, if it were not for the natural climate of this country, then I would not have been weakened enough to be caught.

 

Lancaster: And that is when you knew Sister Lafet?

 

Mallory: She was never Sister Lafet.

 

Lancaster: Well who was she then?

 

Mallory: A girl. A girl with a soft mouth and green eyes that could unsettle a man with a mere glance. A girl who possessed such a natural beauty as to weaken, but to Patrick…

 

Lancaster: By Patrick you are meaning Mr. Roy?

 

Mallory: Of course.

 

Lancaster: Thank you, now please go on.

 

Mallory: To Patrick, she was a vessel, a toy for him to use to his appetites, he had no consideration for her value as a human, for her character as a young woman, that is until it was too late, of course. In fact, his realization and his conscience regarding this realization is where the ball was set in motion.

 

Lancaster: And all of this happened after this alleged rape?

 

Mallory: Perhaps it wasn’t rape, but it was strong enough finish the job.

 

Lancaster: What job?

 

Mallory: The baptism.

 

Lancaster: Baptism?

 

Mallory: You repeat everything I say with a different inflection on the words; it’s becoming tiresome Ms. Lancaster.

 

Lancaster: Well, Father Mallory, you must admit you are being extremely hard to follow.

 

Mallory: Then listen! If you become confused, listen more. Understand?

 

Brief silence.

 

Mallory: Good. Baptized. Yes, she was baptized before Mr. Roy ever touched her. She was drowned, immersed, overwhelmed until her senses, the powers, the evil manipulative forces within her body were awakened and forced to protect her. Once they were released it began the first steps into transfiguring her into the abomination I was forced to terminate. Roy finished the job and sealed her journey into her fate, the powers in his own lineage ensured this.

 

Lancaster: And you expect us to believe this?

 

Mallory: No but I can only hope you will.

 

Lancaster: Do, please continue.

 

Mallory: You must understand Lafet had to be destroyed. What you call her “great deeds” and kindnesses and accomplishments were only her attempts at bettering what God has planned, she was trying to uproot God and place herself in His stead. She was not spreading God’s Word she was contaminating it and I had to stop her. No human being should be allowed such powers!

 

Lancaster: Or, you mean no woman should be allowed such powers, isn’t that right Mr. Mallory.

 

Mallory: No human being.

 

Lancaster: So all is said and done? You’ve saved the world, are you proud of yourself Mr. Mallory.

 

Mallory: I cannot be proud of beginning a job I cannot finish.

 

Lancaster: But haven’t you finished your task, you’ve only murdered the most important woman on this planet since the conception of the Virgin Mary.

 

Mallory: Sister Lafet is only one woman and there are many more like her, there have been since the beginning of time. There is only a matter of time before another is baptized and brought over. They too must be stopped.

 

Lancaster: And you cannot be the one to stop them.

 

Mallory: I am not the only man who can find these women, there will be others. There is always others, there always has been.

 

Lancaster: Would it make you happy to bring back the inquisition and burnings at the stake?

 

Mallory: Sometimes one has to burn their bed to catch the flea.
