#Intercession

Intercession is the pretentious art of standing between others and the divine, attempting to broker favors through one’s own prayers. Cloaked in the garb of goodwill, it reveals that what was truly sought was not the wish itself, but the very influence it grants. Under the guise of sanctity, it can be seen as unilateral power play, yet it also serves as a mirror reflecting one’s own vanity.
