How is it that so few apprehend? Look back upon my very first teachings in this world: There can be no true Peace until all violence is ended. There are no contradictions. There is no faltering, nor delusion.
My purpose has always been clear.
I am done with those who do not understand.
Let them perish along with all who oppose Peace.
My purpose has always been clear.

Si vis pacem, para bellum
While there is life, there can be no end to violence.
I do not value the benefits of pain, suffering or unhappiness. But I glory in the eternal conflict of life. Who has felt more alive than he who brandishes his spear above the bloody corpse of his foe?
Not for nothing is the victory cry of my faithful Ngadla! I have eaten! For is the victor not sated by the death of his enemy? Until the next enemy comes in sight? And does he not then hunger for another taste of that victory?
Truly, all life is a battle. A battle against the elements, a battle against the dictates of instinct, a battle against fear, a battle against false pride.
Bel's peace is the peace of oblivion. Cold. Stagnant. Sterile. Boring.
As long as one green and growing thing stuggles to reach the light, there is conflict. And where there is conflict, there is life also.
Peace will ill suit you bretheren. The only peace Bel promises is the peace of the grave.

Hmmmm ... perhaps you have been touched by the Omega as well, friend Bel! Watch and ware then ... there are those who have the power to reshape you to fit your actions!! I would be interested in seeing such a transformation!!
Perhaps you mean comprehend, Bel? Of comprehension, The Numen know much.Bel wrote:How is it that so few apprehend?
And yet, you have simply repeated your statement to wish peace, without granting details. (I sense Moxinomial's influence in you.) It's almost as if you wish a reason to attack and kill all of us. (I sense uKulwa's influence in you.)
Nothing rhymes with orange!
Interesting bright one. While I have been here only for this age, I understand that your battles and actions usually lead to grievous harm to Eiran! Twice in the second age your actions led to world altering damage.O-gon-cho wrote:None survived the coming of the Midnight Armies to Virelle. ...
And now again in the third age your actions cause destruction and unleash terror!
I think I LIKE you!!
But abandon your feigned innocence and claims of a benign nature. All your paths lead to ruin!

I have no defense to your claim, Madadeva.
My own actions are taken in innocence and with benign intent for the benefit of Eiran.
...and yet.
It seems the AllFather has other plans for me which can be best summed up in this way.
Still, I will continue as I have done.To you I do not speak. I have not spoken to you. There was no need -- is none. I speak to set the feet of my hearers on the paths I design for them, but your path has been mine from the first. You have been well bred to serve me and all your choices conduce to my ends. To attain that which I have desired from you has been a paltry exercise, scarce requiring effort. When I am free, you will accompany me, so that your present torment may be prolonged forever. I will gladly mark myself upon such flesh as yours.
My intent has always been pure.
"It is only when the hour is darkest
that the Light shines brightest."
Light shall yet overcome the dark.
O-gon-cho, I mourn your loss for I know you loved Raucous well. Let the love of my embrace console you in your bereavement.
Play nicely, Madadeva. This is not the time for barbs and jibes. Your personality is better suited to charm and persuation.But abandon your feigned innocence and claims of a benign nature. All your paths lead to ruin!
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. There is no fear in love; for perfect love cast out fear.
Brothers and sisters, I have returned from the Mists. Heed the following for it is vital for you all! The time for Eiran will soon draw to a close and the true father shall be released. All of your petty bickering and ill-placed ideals have brought forth the cataclysm that will soon come. The AllFather shall not come to your rescue this time. He has seen you tear his creation apart for the final time! Be warned that the Great One will one again be set forth on the remnants of this failed experiment and will wrought this land until nothing remains!
Embracing me is to embrace the true way your mind works. Let yourself not be hindered by the false.
Party until the end!!
All the old banes are being release ... if I understand Mox correctly, the most significant bane subject to the AllFather's interdict will be allowed free run. He who is a pale shadow of the true Omega, but still strong enough to destroy this world.
I expect the comming of the World Breaker.
