Magnus Lorenzi inherits 70-year-old writings of a religious nature from his long-deceased grandfather: messages from the apostles of Christ from the beyond, which he transcribed during nights of intense writing. His grandfather's written legacy contains the truth about Jesus Christ, his life and work, and the original revelation that Christ allowed John the Seer to witness on Patmos. However, followers of the community symbolized by the owl seek to stage the end times as described in the biblical apocalypse. They aim to destroy everything that stands in the way of their plan. Paintings by Hieronymus Bosch are being destroyed, and the owner of the original revelation of John the Seer is being pursued. Assassination plans against the Pope become known. Ultimately, the conspirators even entertain the reckless idea of making Christ appear on Earth.
