"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Iblis, pleased with his efforts but unsettled nonetheless
by some creeping, nagging sense of uncertainty, orders five souls
like lookouts to ascend the reaching hand of the citadel.
Crouched like unholy gargoyles, senses stretched into the Void
they quest outwards in eternal vigilance, ever watchful.
The unrelieved grey of the Void a background into which they blend.
And all the while Iblis searches for the source of his unease.

Now because You have led me astray, I shall surely sit in ambush for them on Your straight path.
