On each full moon, the madness in me will be strengthened. I can’t control it and can only constantly call for help.

 — Mr. Door to Fors Wall
on *Lord of Mysteries*, Chapter 1294

**Bethel Abraham**, also known as **Mr. Door**, was the ancestor of the Abraham Family who was banished to an isolated space of storms and darkness by the Evernight Goddess and the Lord of Storms in the War of Four Emperors.

**Mr. Door** had been driving members of "His" family to insanity through "His" pleas for help. The whispers of an Angel were enough to cause Beyonders of Abraham Family members to go berserk and lose control.

"He" was a King of Angels of Door Pathway, owning all 3 of the  Beyonder characteristics and the corresponding Uniqueness. It was said that in the Warring Era, "He" was recognized as the Angel who had the highest possibility to become a Deity. "He" was known as Mr. Door instead of "His" real name, and only a few powerful Beyonders own this privilege.

The Yellow Light, Venithan pointed out that ‘*the Abraham Family's curse would be removed by an Apprentice who had the help of a hidden existence and the day that the curse was lifted was the beginning of the Abraham family’s true doom*.’

This prophecy was manifested near the end of 1352, where "He" was released back to reality. After "He" was released back to reality, "He" was able to immediately start promoting to .

"He" later gave up and got replaced by Amon, who promoted to  in the process.

## Honorific Name

"Great Door of All Doors;

Guide of Endless Cosmos;

Key to all Mysterious Worlds"

— Honorific Name of **Bethel Abraham**
## Appearance

"He" appears to be middle-aged from the first impression. "His" facial features are very "old-fashioned" and "prim". "His" hair exerts a blackness that rivals the Void with a small amount of white hairs mixed in.

"His" eyes are cerulean blue with the irises looking like layers upon layers of rippling cerulean waves stacked upon each other.

## History

"He" had seen the Second Blasphemy Slate during the Warring Era with Primordial Demoness and God of Steam and Machinery. It was said that in the Warring Era, "He" was recognized as the Angel who had the highest possibility to become a Deity. Mobet Zoroast also said that Bethel Abraham was very strong, that even Medici and Ouroboros feared "Him". However, at that time, both "He" and Amon were unwilling to consider becoming the Lord of the Mysteries because they wished to make all sorts of preparations, hoping to make the attempt when the apocalypse was approaching.

In the Fourth Epoch, "He", along with the Abraham Family, was one of the highest nobles in the Solomon Empire and turned to Tudor after Black Emperor Solomon's death. In the War of the Four Emperors, "He" and the Half-Fool Antigonus killed Zaratul (Senior).

### Contamination

Around the time before or during the War of the Four Emperor, "He" got corrupted by the Mother Goddess of Depravity, likely from one of "His" advancement rituals. The corruption awoke a new identity inside "Him", which took control of "His" body most of the time. "He" was then banished from the world by the Evernight Goddess and the Lord of Storms in the War of Four Emperors, for which Roselle suspected was when "He" attempted to advance to .

"He" then started sending cries for help which can only be heard by Abraham Family members. The content of the cries changes as "He" struggled between the corrupted identity and "His" own. Abraham Family members can hear "His" cries most clearly during the Blood Moon, however, that was also when the influence of the Mother Goddess of Depravity becomes the strongest. So the true Mr. Door was never able to deliver any message to "His" descendants. In order to prevent Abraham Family from releasing "Him" back to earth, the ravings have driven most of the High-Sequence Beyonders of the family mad and stopped them from promoting to High-Sequence Beyonders.

### Attempts of Returning

Roselle Gustav got in contact with "Him" later in "His" life because of the contamination from the Mother Goddess of Depravity. Mr. Door was hoping that Roselle could help release "Him", though Roselle refused. "He" was the one who suggested Roselle go to the moon and said that the moon contained all the answers to this world.

In November 1350, Trissy got in contact with him. She asked "Him" the way to open the mausoleums for the advancement ritual to . She also asked "Him" the way to free the Abraham Family from their curse, for which "He" replied that "He" needed the beyonder characterisitcs of a Demigod from each of the Lord of the Mysteries Pathway group.

After the world war in the year 1352, Fors Wall managed to become a Saint, she briefly got in contact with "Him" during her advancement ritual. "He" told her that there are two ways to set "Him" free; the first was the one "He" mentioned to Trissy, the second was to use the blood of 99 members of Abraham Family. "He" kept enticing her to release "Him" during all the conversations "He" had with her.

When Klein heard "His" cries inside the Sefirah Castle, instead of pleading for help, "His" cries were telling people not to help "Him". This made Klein suspect that Mr. Door was indeed half-mad but the mad part was the one talking to people as usual. Klein also suspected that "His" sane part deliberately sent the cries so that none of "His" family members could advance to a higher level and learn of the easy way to release "Him". This will effectively protect them at the cost of declining the Abraham Family status.

Don’t save me… Don’t save me…

### The Death of Bethel Abraham

"He" was finally released by Verdu Garcia who got help from Medici and Amon in Fall of the year 1352. In this way, the prophecy was manifested. When "He" returned, "He" automatically started the process of promoting to . However, due to "Her" contamination, the Mother Goddess of Depravity also tried to breach the barrier and enter Earth. In order to stop this, "He" willingly gave up "His" life to Amon, who became subsequently promoted to  and shut Mother Goddess of Depravity out of Earth with the First Blasphemy Slate.

## Trivia

* According to Mobet Zoroast, "He" didn't believe in any deity, and only believes in "Himself".
* According to Roselle's Diary, he despises Zaratul, and he has zero respect for the various true gods.
* When Fors Wall ended the first conversation with Mr. Door, she (and Klein) saw the pyramid-like buildings on the vast crimson land, behind the building was deep darkness and twinkling stars. Assumed it was a building related to one of "His" advancement rituals on the moon.
