Ezri Dax on Rigel VII narrowly escapes PAX Universal forces at a loyalty enforcement center. Ezri managed to sneak a couple of tribulation saints out of the center before they were subjected to a lethal level of the Mind Sifter device for refusing to take the mark of loyalty. "And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name." Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write;'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them."
