"Als wir in der Halle der Wahrheit standen, unfähig, unsere Aufmerksamkeit von der Faszination des sich aufbauenden Licht-Doms zu nehmen, wurde uns bewusst, dass der Moment nun gekommen war, auf den sich die Menschheit seit ihrer Entstehung zuentwickelt hatte: Sie stand vor der Entscheidung, den Kosmos als siegreicher Herrscher zu betreten - oder von ihm wie ein zaghafter Feigling vernichtet zu werden."

"Manchmal glaubt man, daß es nicht mehr schlimmer kommen kann, wenn Hoffnungslosigkeit und Todesangst zur puren Realität werden. Doch wer wirklich den Pfad des Erwachens zu gehen wagt, der wird sich damit abfinden müssen, daß die lehrreichen finsteren Täler von Mal zu Mal dunkler werden. Irgendwann wird die ultimative Prüfung ins Leben treten. Spätestens dann weiß man, wozu all die vorherigen Hindernisse gut waren und welch immense Vorbereitung sie brachten, um das Unmögliche eines Tages wagen zu können.

Der grüne Hüter erzählt: "Nach der großen, verlorenen Schlacht um Ailons Seele tauchte Sodon in seine Urheimat ein, um sich den lichten Blicken Ailons vollständig zu entziehen. Dorthin, wohin nicht einmal eines Menschen Vorstellung hineinreicht. Man sagt, Gedanken seien frei! Aber hier müssen selbst Gedanken erfrieren." Die Fortsetzung des Gral-Epos nimmt im zweiten Band an Dramatik zu, denn Sodon, das Lügen-Wesen der Finsternis, will nun einen lange vorbereiteten Plan in die Tat umsetzen, den er als letzten Schritt zur "Endlösung der Menschheitsfrage" bezeichnet.

Der dritte Band des Epos "Die Suche nach dem kosmischen Gral" führt uns sowohl in die Tiefen von Sodons Höllen-Welten, worin dessen destruktiv wirkendes Magisches Tor zerstört werden muss, als auch in die Höhen des kosmischen Friedens-Tempels.
