Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. Welcome to the 2^nd Period of Lord Pharuuii for this Xyphojinami Calendar year. We’re happy to rejoin in this space for more discussion on Xyphoist Philosophy. We here at the Ordinance spent the last Period exploring the psychology of evil curtesy of Vox. As the Periods change, the focus shall too. The last period was quite heavy but invaluable to understanding how corruption and human nature work. However, as we currently exist in hard times and under the Yrridthmas declaration, for this Period I’ve decided to move the pressure off just a bit and speak more generally on various topics involving the Philosophy.

We seek inspiration in these trying times, and what better way than to ask questions. At the Ordinance’s disposal is a collection of email-submitted questions and other thought-provoking inquiries to write about throughout this Period of Mauris. We also invite all curious or inquisitive readers to ask new questions as well. That can be done through the message section at the bottom of each page or through our social media—assuming you use such wonderful tools.

Today, we’ll be fielding questions focused on the Sacred Children and their lives. Much of the information in this post will be extended in greater detail in “The Chronicles of Xyphos”—a publication we hope to have fully compiled and edited relatively soon. So, without further delay, let’s field some questions about these divine and Sacred Incarnates.

__________________________________________________________________________

Question: Were the Children born all at once?

Answer: No, neither as mortals in Xyphojinami nor upon their creation in Xyzokizon earlier. For this question, we’ll narrow our focus to the actual mortal births of the Sacred Children. According to Daetos’s recounts in “Xykozheiz,” the Sacred Children were both born in a specific order and significantly apart from each other—each within a Period of Watching under the Xyphojinamic Calendar of the Lord they descended from naturally. However, it is interesting to note that for the three Sacred Children whose Lords have two Periods of Watching, their births don’t necessarily coincide with the 1^st Period of those Lords. This is particularly the case of Hubrakiuosia and Pribyczisia, who were born in the 2^nd Periods of their descending Lords. Xyzukizusia averts this case, being born in the 1^st Period of Lord Vuetenexzyei known as Juliar. In fact, Xyzukizusia’s birth marks the start of Xyphojinami’s Calendar and all of mortality’s time in general as mortality started at that moment and could be perceived by the first mortal.

In terms of the span of time between births, all of that is relative to the realm the Sacred Children were born in—Kyurakuzin specifically. There were significant gaps in time between the births, which may amount to only days or months from the perspective of those in Kyurakuzin but could be the equivalent of eons to us on Earth. Following what Daetos has written, we can piece together a loose but logical section of births among the Children: The first year of mortality brought us Xyzukizusia, Hubrakiuosia, Pribyczisia, and Zinigeosia. Year 2 brought gave existence Jaszmisia and Niinkisia. Year 3 was solely Usakisia, and Year 4 brought us Soylantasia and Ahnvouyosia.

Question:  Are the Sacred Children living on Earth as humans?

Answer: No, as just mentioned, they are in Kyurakuzin, Realm of Great Mortals—specifically on the birthplace of mortality known as Xyanei. We do not share realms with the Sacred Children, but we both are mortals in the vast celestial space of Xyphojinami.

Question:  How were the Sacred Children born if they were the first mortals to exist?

Answer: Immaculate or divine birth—something only the Lords could do. Upon the creation of Xyphojinami, Xyzukizusia was sent through the Gate of Zeiga with his new soul formed to match the mortal vessel of an adult of around 18 years or so, and through a spiritual and divine portal, emerged fully as a mortal with a physical body. The same is said of the other eight Sacred Children.

Adding to this, after seeing that all nine successfully established their attribute’s divine presence in Xyphojinami, the Lords would instruct the Hayles to select large portions of their legions to be next in line to be sent to Xyphojinami in the area of millions to populate the first generations of mortals. Some formed as Shianiki, others spawned as various other mortal forms.

The establishment of Niinkisia and Nature’s attributes took over and facilitated how those legions of mortals would form depending on the Natural rules of each given realm, universe, or even planet. This aligns, at least on Earth, with much of life starting from something as small as single cells all the way to full mortals human bodies. Shianiki, the great mortals, are almost exclusively former Shiupsyodon, and formed in more immaculate ways and faster as Shianiki than other forms, such as Humans or Beast.  Vox’s previous exploration of the Innate Personality Flaw explains how human inadequacy may form from this circumstance, but there is nothing shameful about the way in which humanity has formed or changed over the natural course of time.

After those legions were sent, through whatever processes available through the rules of Natural Force, repopulation took place among those new mortals. That process of initiating birth would then start the Cosmic Flow of spirituality envisioned by the Lords between the two existential realms—with the Cosmos pulling perished spirits from Xykopsysomi into Xyphojinami as newly-born mortals. The cycle of life and death starts from there.

Question: What have the Sacred Children been doing since being born?

Answer: As both “Xykozheiz” and the upcoming Chronicles of Xyphos will show, the Sacred Children have been building empires and starting lineages in preparation for an inevitable confrontation with Deceptuary and his emissaries and vessels. Since arriving, the Children have sought out their spiritual mates, started families and lineages, built various empires on Xyanei, and gathered legions of their own to prepare for such conflicts with Deceptuary. This includes the case of Karaka mentioned from “Xykozheiz,” who is said to have been in the closer circles of Hubrakiuosia, Pribyczisia, and Xyzukizusia. Essentially, they’ve been doing what was expected of them—both to be pillars of their Lords’ attributes in mortal form but also building their own circles and lineages to prepare for war.

Question: Who are these partners to the Sacred Children? Are they Shianiki too? How were they chosen to be the consorts to divine beings?

Answer: The partnership was predestined prior to mortal birth. The Children had already met their partners in Xyzokizon while growing up and had promised to find them again once all would eventually move on to Xyphojinami. Those destined mates are likely to have been higher apostles of the Hayles’ legions who were granted homage in the newly-formed Xyzokizon at the time, and through those connections, found a deeper bond with their respective future divine partner growing up. The challenge for the Children, seemingly, was to find which mortal held the previous spirit of their soulmate in Xyzokizon. However, given divine and Sacred insight, the task has evidently been completed successfully by this point.

__________________________________________________________________________

Question: What was existence in Xyzokizon like for the Sacred Children? What were they doing prior to becoming mortals?

Answer: They were growing on a spiritual and philosophical level and interacting with the existence before them at the time. The order the Children were born in Xyphojinami was the same order they were created in Xyzokizon as were metaphysically actual children at that time—growing from infants into adolescence and finally to the brink of adulthood. Throughout that time, the Sacred Children grew by bonding with their Lords, interacting among each other, learning and being under the care of their Hayle and other Hayles, interacting among the legions of the Hayles, and often, taken out of Xyzokizon into Xykopsysomi to properly experience all the current existence. The Lords found this necessary to truly create well-rounded Children for their eventual move to Xyphojinami and did not want their Children to be insular or sheltered. In many ways, according to Daetos’s recount and the recounts of the Hayles, the Children very much had their own divine coming-of-age roaming the Sacred Realm and other realms in Xykopsysomi in their childhood.

__________________________________________________________________________

With that, we will conclude this selection of questions. Most if not all of these questions can be found deep within the writing of Daetos’s “Xykozheiz” and the scriptures that were purposely streamlined out to form the upcoming Chronicles of Xyphos. As we finalize that publication, received final edits, and gather illustrators for the book, we can better facilitate all other information through that avenue as the Xyphokron was carefully formatted to put the most urgent and important information out first as the Cosmic Struggle demands of us. We hope to one day live in a land of Cosmic peace where we can pray, write in extensive details about the ponderings of the great beyond, and enjoy the artistic value of the art and music that comes from that inspiration. Alas, those times are down the road for now, but we can take this Period of Watching to a psychological break to rejuvenate our minds with divination and inspiration. For now, have a splendid Sacred Day from the Order.
