Weakened by her trials Brittany faints. She awakens tied to the stone altar of the Fates Temple with the Shoscar speaking to her in Kaldorian's voice. The Shoscar gathers blood from a wound on her wrist while attempting the Rigual of Unification. Demond bursts into the room, battles and defeats the undead Ifricante creature.
From her perch on the northern mountains of Airin, Ryia views the Temple of Fates being surrounded by Merninok's. The Red Prests discover their magical connection to the Silver Spire has been severed and question Ryia's reasons for traveling north. Ryia then speaks with the Red Priest Commander, Rhys. Revealing her power of Foresight she directs his attention to the Merninok's formation below explaining that had they gone in any other direction they would have been captured. Seeing reason in her arguement Rhys explains to his men that they owe the High Priestess their lives. Desperate to escape and knowing the Merninok's have surrounded the Fates Temple Demond sacrifices a magical relic given to him by the child like Fate Linksia. The destroyed relic transports them to a duplicate relic hidden in his horses pack in a camp on the edge of the Endless Forest of Atrium. They resume their journey to the Valley of Souls as Brittany struggles to remain conscious. She falls into a deep slumber after spewing a string of gibberish. Demond begins to worry. Prior to the Shoscar's death, Kaldorian told Demond that if the Rigual of Unification was unfinished Brittany would lose her mind. Demond, however, carries a terrible secret. As a child he entered the Temple of Fates and did not experience the trials but walked straight to the heart of the Temple. The Priestess that oversaw the Trials swore him to secrecy without mentioning the Ritual of Unification. Demond worries that Kaldorian's taunting words may be true.

Brittany enters the Silver Spire with Ryia. There is magic in the Spire and only those of it can see it. She goes inside and she is inspected by an elderly male priest accompanied by two younger novice priestesses. When his inspection is finished she gives her a white robe she will use when she enters the ceremony that they have begun. She progresses through the priestess and priestesses that have gathered to witness the ceremony.
She enters the temple where the statue of the Triple Fates, Elhari of the Harves who has gone missing, Tempest of the Crescent Moon, and Linksia the child is held. There before their alter Ryia conducts the ceremony asking the two remaining Fates to accept Brittany as an Azkath. The ceremony goes terribly wrong as Brittany feels a terrible agonizing pain upon her back. The pain is so great that she faints. When she awakens she his in a room hours later. The elderly priest that had performed the inspection earlier is in the room as well. He realizes that the tattoo that has been literally gouged into Brittany's back is that of Elhari, the missing Fate of the Harvest but the symbol has been changed so that it resembles that of the Dark Mother of the Ifricante. She is also told that she must enter the temple within twelve hours and if she does not complete the trials by earth, air, water and fire she will surely die. Despite the foreboding evidence that one of the Fates have been corrupted by Kaldorian the Council of Elders informs Brittany that she must enter the Fates Temple and complete the trial within twelve hours or she will surely die. Ryia, although the Silver Spire is about to change locations, insists on escorting Brittany to the Temple of Fates and covertly gives her the precious long sword relic, RavensWing. As Brittany begins the trials within the Fates Temple Ryia is reunited with Demond. Ryia forbids Demond from entering the Temple as it could kill Brittany. They speak of their childhood and Ryia's mysterious enterance into the Silver Spire befoere the rest of the family was murdered in the Bloody Forest. They part ways as Brittany completes the trials and one of Ryia's Red Priests spy Merninok's in the distance. Ryia leads her battalion of Red Priestes north into the mountains of Airin as Demond enters the temple. During the trials Brittany experiences memories of the deceased. With each new life she discovers abilities to heal, breathe underwater, fight with RavensWing and wield magic. She stumbles into the main chamber of the temple at the end of the trials, overcome by the memories of the dead and exhausted. In her weariness she does not notice a nearby pile of bones wrapped in rags. The Shoscar, an undead Ifricante creature, suprises her and she is knocked unconscious. Zepher discovers Demond in a tavern of the labyrinthine bridge city of Mirage. He speaks to Demond of his exploits and the witty Azkath (Guardians) immediately realizes that the High Priestess is taking Brittany to the Temple of Fates. Knowing that a High Priestess has not left the Silver Spire in nearly a millennium, reeling from the fact that she may be his sister, and knowing that the Temple of Fates is inhabited by an Ifricante abomination he rushes with Zepher from the city. Traveling the Merchants Road.
While traveling along the Merchants road with Jareon (Zepher) the two take a nap. While they are taking a nap a group of robbers show up and attempt to steal their horses. However, they had picked out a camp in midst a thicket of poisonous shrubs similar to tumble weeds. All those who passed into the circle that were mortal would die of the poison from the thorns. Although neither Demond nor Jareon are hurt by the thorns the boys that had attempted to steal their horses die painfully within moments of the poison. Demond feels terrible for the sacrifice of the boys but he can do nothing. Jareon and Demond bury the dead and then join a Merchant Caravan traveling North. Crystal is in the Merchant Caravan. Her love for Demond blinds her and she admits she is carrying the White Shield of legend that the first Guardian, Nezra, once carried. There is a bit of obsidian in the shield and another precious metal as well. She has it in a chest that she watches over. Demond then reminds Jareon of a trick they once used before, indicating they should steal the shield. They steal the shield by telling Crystal, who has always been a lazy spoiled brat, that they will stable the horses. They then head off with the chest. Jareon turns into a ox and carries the chest to Kenya as Demond carries on to find Brittany. Ryia does not intend to take Brittany to Kenya in the Valley of Souls despite a hurried promise amidst the the battle to Zepher. Instead she leads Brittany north towards the Fates Temple where the Azkath long ago consummated their Fates Pact in the mountainous land of Airin.
In the city of Winette where the first Azkath, Nezra, was born Brittany and Ryia are captured by Kaldorian's consort, the beautiful Azkath Sephia. Sephia does not realize her captive may be the Lost One and sends words of the prisoners to Kaldorian hoping to gain his favor. Brittany and Ryia escape into the Whispering Woods north of the city just as Kaldorian's Lancer appears upon the horizon. The Whispering Woods are decorated with bones by the children of the forest. Rumor suggests the last Forest Guardian lurks within the Forests Lake. As they travel along the lake High Priestess Ryia and Brittany are thrown from their horse. Brittany discovers the High Priestess is knocked unconscious. They are being pulled towards the lake's edge by the leafy tentacles of the Forest Guardian when a strange figure emerges from the water. Ryo, wise woman of the Children of the Forest has fur and horns of a fawn with hair of blossoming vine. Ryo sensing that Brittany may be the Lost One creates a litter to carry the unconscious High Priestess and leads Brittany through the enchanted forest as her tribe pursues them. Alright, our synopsis continues...
+ + + Brittany Ravener, an ordinary college student from Earth, stumbles into Merosis walking to work. She is summoned to the world of her origin by Kaldorian's magic and subsequently snatched from his grasp by a Shadow Man. After narrowly escapbing Merininok's in a forest she begins an unlikely journey with the Shadow Man as protector. The Shadow Man reveals himself as Demond; a Fallen Azkath that keeps the Fates Pact and he only saved her life to thwart Kaldorian. Demond takes her to his home city of Azuel. There she discoveres that he has created a refuge for people liberated from Kaldorian's cruel clutches. Brittany is introduced to a hostile Azkath named Crystal. Brittany then falls ill after an exotic dinner and a priestess from the Silver Spire is summoned. She determines that Brittany is changing into an Azkath and that she might even be the Lost One. Demond announces he intends to discover if the Priestess findings are true. Consumed by Jealousy Crystal leaves the city. Demond takes Brittany somewhere Kaldorian would never search for her, the Labor City of Ashton. There Demond seeks Zepher, an Azkath who once rebelled against Kaldorian, but ceased upon falling in love with the beautiful engineer that designed and built Ashton. As his love had died long ago Zepher joins Demond and Brittany. Zepher and Demond seek out the wise Azkath, Kenya, hoping to prove that Brittany is the Lost One. For nearly a millenium Kenya has protected the magic wielding citizens of his land within the secretive Valley of Souls. Upon Escaping Ashton, Demond parts ways with Brittany and Zepher to find motivation for Kaldoriance recent actions in the desert land of Iblu. He promises to rejoin them shortly in the Valley of Souls after Kenan has confirmed Brittany's lineage. Ryia (the High Priestess of the Order) has a vision deep within the wandering tower known as the Silver Spire. The vision prompts her to leave the tower and find the Lost One. She fears she will encounter her brother, Demond, who believes she is dead. As Zepher and Brittany enter the Endless Forest of Atrium their horse stumbles into a trap set by the wicked winged female creatures, that weave webs similar to spiders called Sidhe. They discover that the High Priestesss of the Silver Spire has been captured by the Queen Sidhe who resides upon a throne of human skulls. The Queen, Kaldorian's creation, intends to deliver the High Priestess to her master. The strange memories of a long dead warrior flood Brittany's mind. The knowledge she gains allows her to escape bondage using a holy dagger Demond had given her and then frees a bewildered Zepher. She and Zepher join Kenya's Forest Knights in a battle against the gathered Sidhe. As Kaldorian's aerodynamic sting ray shaped craft, a Lancer, appears over the forest and Zepher engages the Queen Sidhe Brittany escapes with the High Priestess. The Queen Sidhe escapes, Kaldorian's Lancer retreats, and Zepher aids the Forest Knights in burning the bodies of the Sidhe. Discovering that he cannot find a trace of the High Priestess within the forest he sets off to find Demond in Iblu. I've decided I will share the synopsis of my story for free on the internet since Merosis can't seem to get published. They are always publishing his stories but mine, I suppose are not good enough. Although, at the very least Star Wars did a fantastic job, Hunger Games to some extent did so as well, and Twilight...well it's ok, but Interview With A Vampire did a far better job in that game.
_____________________________________________________________ Synopsis Part I Brittany Ravener sits in a business office wearing a bloody hospital gown while questioning her sanity. Her dilemma isn't the current bizarre situation, but a persistent belief in a world called Merosis. Once long ago, according to ancient texts the Goddesses of Merosis, called Fates, walked the world. They would appear to aide the lost or smite the wicked. They set great monsters called Guardians in the sacred forests of the world to protect them. According to the teaches The Fates eventually tired of Merosis's people and scorned them. In the Fates absence fie Wandering Towers of Magic appeared to those with magic in their blood allowing Merossis' people to unearth their innate power. The students in the Toweres, however, became bored with their scholarly pursuits. There was great strive in the land as they used their powers to enslave. The Fates seeing the people of Merosis suffering chose Nezra (the first of the Azkath) to challenge the powerful magical wielders. They ordained Nezra (and his consorts, the protectors of the eight lands) to honor a pact upon aquiring the great powers of the Azkath. First, the Fates forbade rule over the people of Merosis as Kings or Queens. Second, only one Azkath child would be allowed per generation. Third they protect the Fates religion (The Order). Fourth, a marriage between Azkath was forbidden. Fifth, Azkath may become versed in only one Magic of a Wandering Tower. The world once again knew peace, but doubt of the Fates brewed within the Azkath as Merosis entered a Gold Age of Technology. In their bliss, the Azkath experienced the miraculous birth of twin Azkath boys- Eclipse, also known as Kaldorian and Demond. was celebrated as they unwittingly broke the Fates pact. Soon, each Azkath was blessed with or expecting a second Azkath child. A terrible calamity struck as the pregnant Azkath of Chrysalis was found dead, her second unborn Azkakth daughter absent from her womb. Before the waning of that day the High Priestess of the Silver Spire received a vision and Prophecy of the Lost One. The sonnet, in which the Silver Spire foresaw their doom, was born. Many Years later the Day of Bloodshed struck. Kaldorian lead the first born Azkath in slaughtering most of their kin. Few of their siblings escaped the slaughter, for Kaldoian possessed unrivaled power. In secret he had entered and learned the magic of all five Wandering Towers. He declared himself ruler of the world and immediately began to ration technology in all of its forms claiming that resources were low. Only a few handpicked capitals were allowed tehcnology. He created what would be known as Labor Cities to replace the commoner's dependence on technology and promised to feed and fulfill every desire of the people entering his cities. People soon learned his promises were empty and the drug laced sustenance he provided befuddled their minds while it rendered them sterile. The few surviving Azkath along with a band of humans rebelled against Kaldorian, but the mad Azkath was too powerful. Kaldorian clandestinely created an army of heavily armored bipedal biological machines called Merninoks. The Merninoks quelled the rebellion and when the flood of citizens entering the Labor Cities began to dwindle used them to recruit people by force. Kaldorian dissolved the Temples of the Order, citiing that they encouraged the rebellions and slaughtered the Priests and Priesstesses. He erected temples devoted to the Ifricante religion and it's host of demons ruled by the Mysterious Dark Mother. Soon a calling to the Wandering Towers became rare and magic faded from Merosis as the remaining Azkath keeping the Fates Pact fell into obscurity. The Greatest Love Story Ever Told In A Thousand Ways
Once long ago there was a little ball of energy. She was innocent, so pure, and she was just so excited to go and create. She thought she knew everything about creating, she'd been taught the ins and the outs. She was ready. She forgot her male counter part and started creating without him. On one level, she tried to hide her creation. She thought it was ugly and that no one would like it so she even hid it from herself. On another level, she created a mirror. She looked into that mirror and saw the most wonderful things so that she became entranced. She became like death. She became like Ice. No one could seem to wake her. Not knowing what to do, her other half broke the mirror. Little did he know that her Essence had gone into the mirror. By breaking the mirror he broke her into thousands of little shards. Putting those shards back together has been a long and arduous process of ages, times and half times. The paradoxical nature of the mirror was the problem. ____________________________________________________________ Life After Life So, she descended into the underworld. The favorite daughter. Wherever she went, he went but rarely did they know or recognize one another for what they truly were. Again and again, he sacrificed himself on her Alter thinking that would wake the frozen heart. Surely, if anything could make her heart pound it would be his split blood. The blood of her love split on the battleground. Still, she did not waken. He even came embodied and fully awoke in male flesh- Yeshua. He glimpsed her in the eyes of a young Egyptian Girl for but a moment and it hardened his resolve. He had to let himself be crucified for her, as an example to her, to call her attention to him in that life. He was acting out the divine play on a sophisticated level. Deeper and deeper they went into the Darkness...she would flee and he would follow. ____________________________________________________________________ Language Problem The problem somewhere, somehow was about language. She spoke in symbols. To reach her and wake her up in the right way he had to develop a system. Really it hasn't been until the invention of the modern computer that he could do so and the early awakening she was forced into (THANKS RUSSIA) nearly made her insane. So, he could see WAY WAY WAY up at the top of the tree what was happening and kind of guide things along the way down but he didn't know where she was going. He didn't know where she was really. I think the language problem should be fixed or he should be in the process of fixing it now. Maybe. I"m not sure. ____________________________________________________________________ Final Thoughts I'm not sure that I will write another blog for a bit. Absorbing all of this has been a bit much. The magic left because she was dying...I don't know if it was up there or down here where death started. The endless cycle stops it so that death doesn't happen. That was the only way to keep everyone, all the children, all of creation alive until he could find her. An never ending SOS loop that he would some day pick up and...I don't know. I really don't know. This life has been cruel. I have been very much alone. No one seems to understand the language or passions I share. No one seems to care. No one is into symbols as I am in the life that I know. I'm just a silly Starbucks Barrista. When I reached for more at Hertz I lost my daughter. Even my life has been one big allegory. I've been running from the golden fish of Pisces for years now. I never thought Aquarius was a woman, let alone the triple Goddesses. Well, I guess, happy birthday. We've moved from one age to another, one entire cycle completed by the happy couple. I am not one to share dreams normally. This dream however was so mind blowingly beyond anything I have ever dreamed of before...I thought it was enough with having a dream of "winning the game of life," "awakening by meeting my higher self", "Storming the throne of Yahweh" and "The River of Grain" dreams
In the first dream, I was looking at how some vehicles worked...what gave them power. What I saw was that there were three little pyramids or in a circle, then there was a long shaft, a grid of eight and then it continued on to what looked like a globe. I understood that it was those three triangles in a circle that gave the fuel to the system. Then I was in the desert. I was standing in front of a structure like a dome. It was dimpled like a golf ball. This was the same dome in which the three Goddesses were hidden (the granary shrine that's all over Earth in every culture). Someone was telling me the significance of it (Doc Ptah from the website http://www.halexandria.org/ strangely, website I discovered back in 2005) and explained that it housed the the Shakti Goddesses. Then he said, "Oh this is mine but I never even noticed this before..." There were hexagonal screw heads holding the two sides of the dome together. On those screw heads were a series of letters running vertically. This was a metal structure painted white. Innocent. Accept The Bull. Then I heard a doorbell noise. I woke up because Angel Korns needed to go potty. Then I wondered if Accept The Bull was a play on the word, "Acceptable." I found that interesting. Plus, there is the whole Bull of Heaven guarding the place demi-gods need to go to "live forever" or whatever. So I was like, no one knows what the bull of heaven was but...well heck. Maybe it's the God Enki. Why not? Sure, I'll Accept The Bull. Alright, so then I went back to sleep and I had another dream. This one was weirder. Only I could see two people. A man and a woman. They were carrying paperwork with URGENT stamped in big bold red. They were here to investigate me for some strange reason. They wore outdated clothes. I tried to show Ross but he couldn't see them. I even pointed to the mirror in the bathroom and said, "See them? Can't you see the people reflected there?" He only saw his own reflection. Yet, at the same time I was trying to show them to Ross in the mirror I was interacting with them in the same room. I thought it best not to tell Ross I was seeing people (in the dream, mind you). Then these two people told me that I was going to have to past some tests. I didn't know what the tests were for but this seemed like serious business so I thought I would try. I was supposed to race this woman, at this time I had the impression she was a goddess. I would equate her to Sif (Thor's wife) right out of the Marvel Thor flicks. Her companion who was heading up this expedition kind of looked like Thor from Marvel. Ross opened up the garage for some reason and went back inside the house. We started to run and I was like, nope and I explained I have asthma I didn't know why I was even trying that. Besides, Apollo and Angel had run across the street with me and I needed to get them back home, off their leashes, and do so safely. Then "Thor" asked me if I could do any other tests. Somehow, endurance came up but then we were interrupted. Ross's friend John had showed up to pick up something. I cried out, "Hello John!" as a bright light shone at me from the east (the direction our Garage faces). There was a sarcophagus of an Egyptian Pharaoh that had been hidden in the garage. I explained with a shrug to the two "gods" that the sarcophagus was stolen by Ross' grandfather and that we had found it underneath his tools. I also explained that John was going to return it via helicopter. I said all of this nonchalantly but with a lot of disgust. (I have no idea what this means and no, as far as I know Ross' grandfather didn't steal a sarcophagus nor have I seen one in actual life). Sif said to Thor, "What is the chance of this coincidence?" He replied, "This is not very likely a coincidence." The next scene began with me entering a Colosseum. There was a great council of people in the seats. They were all "gods." There were hundreds of these people. I was being questioned about things. There was an off hand comment, "This much....(something I don't remember)....hasn't happened since we investigated Houdini." I asked, "What happened to Houdini?" Then I realized they meant the trial and my thought was what the heck do I do that's even remotely like Houdini? They asked me if there was anything else I might add. I wound up mentioning the crescent shaped symbol on my forehead, "I don't know where it's from but my therapists said that it's a symbol of protection in Egypt." They brought on what looked like a video of a Dwarf, that's the best I can describe it right out of Lord of the Rings. He stamped himself in the head with the crescent symbol on the left side like me and then put a stamp on his right cheek that looked like a periscope target from a gun. He was speaking in a different language I couldn't understand but what I got was this... "Better this symbol of the crescent then a big target on her head for ISIS." I laughed with the 'gods' but really it wasn't that funny. By this time I realized they were evaluating if I was a demi-god. I was a wee bit horrified. Those people die on this planet a lot. No one likes them. They get murdered. Then it was time to leave and I was walking with someone, I don't know who. He shook the hand of another god who he then tossed up into the sky. That God was looking down at us as we were looking up like an upside down mirror image. Then the god said, "I am the grinder of grain not of gods." That was the end of the dream. However, the impression was that mankind, humans, are the grain of the Earth- the fruit of the Earth- that are being ground for some reason.... I have no idea what the heck it all meant but it was strange indeed! *I will note that I have stumbled upon the symbol of the system that runs the universe and it is in the key in Rome. (https://mackquigley.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/vatican-key.png?w=594). The three goddess of the Shakti cult are held in the dome pictured on the far left, the eight cells are the Bascillica of St. Peter- a grid that somehow runs the device, Plaza San Pedro is the Projection. Those are the only parts that I remember of the so called "engine". **Preceding the part where I saw the three pyramid goddesses within the dome, I was working for my parents. I was on a higher plane. I was driving a truck with a trailer and trying to back up to put it in position. My brother was attempting to direct me. Three "cars" fell. When I went to check the cars on the lower level I looked inside and saw the engine. I don't know what the heck that means either. |
