However, in contrast to Knoth Val eventually decided to forsake God and to actively worship the coming of the antichrist. Val was the highest-ranking Deacon of the Testament of the New Ezekiel and a close confidant to Sullivan Knoth. When Lynn's husband Blake invaded the mines to free Lynn, Val and their men tried to intervene but were presumably killed when Knoth's fanatics raided the mines. When a pregnant Lynn Langermann was found by the Testament and was believed to be carrying the anti-christ inside her, Val freed her from the Testament and brought her to the mines in order to make sure that she indeed birthed her baby. This led to a schism in the Testament and Val, leader of the defectors now known as the Heretics, fled into the mines near Temple Gate with the rest of the Heretics. Val is a former deacon of the Testament of the New Ezekiel, Val eventually betrayed Knoth and decided to spite Knoth by bringing forth the apocalypse and assisting in the birth of the anti-christ. Val is one of the two main antagonists (along with Sullivan Knoth) of the 2017 survival horror video game Outlast 2. I welcome our infant lord, naked, hiding nothing. ~ Val voicing her contempt about Knoth's actions. I watched my father f-ck your God to death!
