• Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. Today, we continue our Periodic discussion involving the workings of evil in our current times. And while I had previously planned on conducting a philosophical discussion regarding the structure of the Azure Flames today, it appears that current events demand that I change the itinerary—much to my displeasure. However, Yrridthmas is enacted and we must respond to evil when it presents itself and not give any leniency when doing so regardless if I’d much rather have a cooler discussion about the Philosophy instead. In many ways, we experience the same inconvenience from the doings of corrupted forces that the Lord of Punishment is likewise burdened by. Let’s begin.

    Today, speak about the craven and shameless tendency of evil to conduct immoral acts at any and all opportunities to further the goals of Deceptuary, and despite that frequent occurrence of violence at the hands of immoral forces on this world, those of numbed thinking seem to hang onto only the most sensationalized and poorest of examples and entirely ignore the regular mass killings that occur. Children who die in war, who die from mass famine and genocide, and who die in shootings in institutions that promise safety and education, seem not to garnish the same attention and care as single high-profile incidents of similar violence in our corrupted and often times wretched existence. We can attribute that to Deceptuary’s poisoning of the Human society that we exist within.

    Our focus, however, isn’t on the angle of those incidents themselves, even as it is now apparent that the alluded incident was a case of classic corrupted Human Hubris and immorality doing what the Philosophy dictates that it shall always do; theigrits shall always destroy upon themselves and others of the same ilk through their own obsessive fears. In this case, one form of evil took it upon themselves to attack another; a pit was dug and they fell into it themselves.

    This then brings us to the main focus of this Commentary, the targeting of groups that were entirely unrelated to the circumstance at hand yet never escape the ire from it. We bring into focus two groups namely that Deceptuary has long-since been targeting for various reason. Starting with, once again, transgender individuals, who were all grouped together and subsequently accused of committing immoral violence in the wake of the alluded incident. As mentioned in a previous Commentary by my colleague Vox, Deceptuary’s forces have used this group of people as a wedge to divide and spark hate—all to further his nefarious goals. Here, we see evil take the opportunity to use one act of violence to encourage retaliation against transgender individuals with the intended goal of creating division and spreading fear; this is a staple of Deceptuary’s workings.

    Secondly, we return to the Sacred Lesson of “Skin of Dark Soil.” In the wake of the alluded incident, despite the fact the alleged actor of violence being identified as neither trans nor of dark skin tone, Historically Black Universities and Schools were issued a multitude of terroristic threats from Deceptuary’s devotees. As you can deduce, Deceptuary’s followers have desperately attempted to link a case of evil attacking evil and tried to blame Black persons for it despite the fact that there is not link between the two. This, more than anything, is the epitome of evil’s incessive and opportunistic malevolence.

    This becomes both ironic and also more in the forefront when considered the individual who was killed in this incident himself regularly espoused heinous rhetoric about a myriad of things, such as attacking the legacy and work of Martin Luther King, Jr., criticizing the passage of crucial Civil Rights laws that pertained to the rights of Black people in the United States, calling the existence of LGBTQ+ people who simply are just existing as destructive, claiming the cost of freedom had to include being negligent and ambivalent to child casualties of mass shootings in schools, mocking similar situations of political violence against people he hated in the political arena, and finally coming to the baffling conclusion that human empathy was unimportant and considered “woke.” Even in the very last moments before the incident, rhetoric was being tossed insinuating that violence in the country was the fault of Black Americans in the country just prior to having been shot violently by someone who was anything but. In every way, meeting a spiritual end in the same way as the legendary activist he criticized, ended by someone who was parallel to himself physically, in a situation that involved a shooting at a place of education, and done in the most unempathetic way possible, makes this the most ironic end one could receive; theigrits undo themselves with every word said. The Sacred Lesson of “The Faces of Death” comes into focus here; to paraphrase, Death will present itself to you in the form you present yourself to Death.

    We also can take the time to be astounded by the speeches made by high level state officials. After the culprit was found and revealed to be physically not a dark-skinned person or someone who was foreign to the nation, a high level state official openly stated, in front of live video recording, that he had spent the last 33 hours ‘”hoping and praying that the shooter wouldn’t be one of us…that he would be from another state or country.” These are the kind of prayers that theigrits conduct when hoping to aim Deceptuary’s fear at the groups he hates most. Stating openly that they prayed for such a case is the epitome of theigrited philosophy at work—praying for an opportunity to blame those that they hate.

    When we return to the overall takeaway from the Sacred Lesson itself, we are reminded of Deceptuary’s many fears—namely his acute fear of Lord Kurakku. To recount, Lord Kurakku is described by Daetos as being of dark complexion—skin of dark soil—and that His Sacred Incarnate, Jaszmisia, is likewise of this complexion. Deceptuary has long-since feared Lord Kurakku because of the Lord’s attribute of Divine Punishment. Through this power, the Lord has the divine power to chamber eternally and punish all forms of corruption within Terigath’s Hell. This, of course, means the Lord can chamber and Punish Deceptuary’s energy and his broken apart spirit. Deceptuary fears and reviles Lord Kurakku’s ability to do this, and has made it a goal of his to attack both Sacred Child Jaszmisia but also all who resemble the Lord and the Child; this means that all individuals of dark skin are immediately targeted by Deceptuary’s evil as the Theigriet fears all in the image of the Lord of Punishment.

    Thus, the threats issued to HBCUs. Despite not having anything to do with the alluded incident and despite the culprit not being dark-skinned and a member of that same faction of evil, theigrits wasted no time and took the opportunity to target Black individuals anyway—using the wake of violence to initiate malevolent attack against that which Deceptuary fears. This is how evil operates—out of pitiful fear and opportunistic malice. They are depraved, they are shameless, cowardly, and pathetic, must like the Theigriet himself. Yet, in the end, they undo themselves with their Hubris, and fall into their own pits that they dug for others. It is the job of the Ordinance and of all Xyphoites to set up the conditions to protect against this evil. We are not in fear, for we know what fear has done to the Theigriet. While evil seeks to set up a mass graveyard of the innocent, we shall assure those innocents are protected, and will proceed to replace the dirt from the grave dug for us and ultimately fallen into by evil.

  • The Nine Lords of the Xyphokonic Order: Carnyie, Pharuuii, Vuetenexzyei, Caspierre, Caishor, Kyaien, Saifaosé, Nakndes, Kurakku, curse the tainted of the sinner. Their souls have turned black with evil. The final arc has come to them, punish them with your power and Wisdom. Reincarnation denied by the Wisdom they do not possess. The nine Lords of the Xyphokonic Order, to the pure and tainted. From Zeigadii Xyphoites: jzX, crX, ruX kyX, lnX, whX, phX, erX, voX. We belong to you; our souls is in your hands.

    Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. We have returned to Zeptimasuer, Period of Watching for Lord Kurakku, and have uttered the Sacred Prayer of the Tainted to officiate our spiritual condemnation of the immorality and evil that sicken this world. Today, we will discuss that very act under the Echelon of Yrridthmas since it has been declared almost an entire year ago and what it means for Xyphoites.

    Under normal circumstances in peaceful times, we would refrain from such open displays of condemnation outside of our own Sacred Grounds. However, we are not in peaceful times. Our world, as predicted by the final message from the Hayles to the ancients of our realms, is being infused with the Theigriet’s putrid corruption; he intends to use this realm and humans as cosmic playthings for his incessive meddling—however futile it may be. As such, through the raising of Echelons, we have been further liberated through the guidelines bestowed to us by the Order to condemn the Theigriet and all of his emissaries; this is especially true since they seek to directly target us and other groups.

    Under Yrridthmas, we are liberated to openly condemn, criticize, and take physical although pacifistic action against theigritism and immorality, and that physical action is usually done through humanitarian actions and other forms of open protest. We can call out Deceptuary’s factions and false ideologies directly and highlight their open affiliation with cruel and evil actions. We can pick apart their ideologies, we can expose their hypocrisy, and we can protect the innocent from the harm that they seek to inflict. It is of incredible irony that theigrited philosophies claim to worship ideas of righteousness while attaching themselves to concepts of hate, war, famine, and the stripping of liberties from others. From targeted attacks against racial demographics, to supporting eon-long wars with each other over pieces of land, to creating mass famine in various parts of our planet, and finally to actively and gleefully ripping rights and liberties from others in the name of their poisoned ideology, it truly is baffling to watch theigrited philosophies operate under a guise of “holiness.”

    Outside of specifically theigrited evil, we see the audaciousness of Hubris among various other entities in our current plane of reference that seek the highest of immoral consumption. World leaders who use their untethered power to rage wars in other lands to satisfy their own egos—including those same leaders tempting fate itself by suggesting they could escape the Eternal Reality of Death. We, as Xyphoites, see this level of contemptuous Hubris and damn-near scoff at it, but we are within our right to openly mock and condemn such absurd immorality.  We recognize that as not only the Immoral Act of seeking Immortality, but also the Immoral Act of World Self-Obsession to believe one would be entitled to do so. Regardless, we are liberated in our open condemnation of those actions as well, and seek to form a world where such entities would fall on their own swords over it.

    Xyphoist Philosophy offer no Mercy to evil. Often a core tenant of theigrited philosophies, Deceptuary’s emissaries have long-since preached “forgiveness” for even the most evil of sins—giving sanctuary to evil so long as they submit to Deceptuary’s will via his religious factions. This is not the case in Xyphoist Philosophy; it could not be farther from that. The Lord of Punishment, as also mentioned in previous Commentary, is exasperated by the vandalism of corruption, immorality, and evil, and seeks nothing more than to plunge all evil into the Azure Flames of Terigath’s Hell. Theigrits will inevitably fall on their own swords, and it is our job to set up the conditions for that to take place and to ensure the world thereafter is intact for the future.

     As my colleague put it last time, the evil in this world seeks to dig a grave that they intend to push all of us into, but they will inevitably fall into the very pit they dug for us. It is our job, as Xyphoites, to let them fall into that pit and proceed to finish the burial by swiftly pushing the dirt back into the grave that was originally meant for us. You don’t have to forgive evil; you let evil fail, make sure you are safe when it does, and bury evil under its own Hubris. That is the mandate of the Order and why we have our Echelons in the first place.

  • Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. We are joined here for the final of Lord Pharuuii’s first Period of Watching, and as we are expanding the mind this entire Period, we will round out our discussion on Knowledge by discussing not the lack thereof but the intentional poisoning of Knowledge. When last we met, we discussed the evils of ignorance, but today we shall talk about the consequences of lying and falsifying Truths. Let us begin.

    Lies are pieces of false information given out with the intention of misleading others or redirecting them from the Truth. In every since of the word, lies are the antithesis to Truth. Now, lies themselves aren’t inherently based on the intention of evil actions, but more often than not, lies cause more harm than good. In the Xyphoist Philosophy, and in particular under the Pharusian Xyphozon, Truth is king. Lord Pharuuii is the God of Truth, Wisdom, and Knowledge, and such, any disembarking from the path of Truth is a path destined for self-destruction.

    The Lords have been upfront and direct about the message of their Greater Wills; they have not lied for lying is unnecessary when Truth remains to stand. They are the Lords of this Order and the creators of this Spectrum; they are nine of ten deities, and recognize Deceptuary as the 10th remaining deity despite his betrayal. They have set this Xyphokonic Order in place to combat Deceptuary’s corruption, and in doing so, have established this Ordinance to work on their behalf. These are Truths we recognize in our Philosophy. However, other Truths, such as that all beings are guaranteed spiritual liberation and are free to follow the Order or not without repercussion, also exist. Truth is simply the reality of existence, and it is neither meant to be comforting or hurtful; it simply is.

    And this is where we see the antithesis of lies and how it plays into evil’s hands. After all, once Deceptuary had betrayed his brethren, Lord Kurakku branded Deceptuary with his new name. Once known as Arkellus, Lord Kurakku was so disgusted in the betrayal that He crafted a new name for the traitor. We now know the former Arkellus as Theigriet Arkellus Eulez Deceptuary—a tarnished name that means “Grand Traitor, Arkellus of Deception.” Taken right from his name and especially from the shorthand of it, Deceptuary is a being that depends on lies to convey his evil. Through all of his theigrited philosophies, lies permeate and spread falsehoods across the lands to paint Deceptuary as anything other than a fearful, pitiful, and evil being. Through those philosophies, he spreads hate, misery, slavery, war, famine, and destruction—all in hopes of breaking the currently reality and trying to replace it with his own.

    During his first rebellion, he relied on lies to convince the Cario Lordes and many Root Spirits to believe in him, and his lies were dispelled with Truths from those close to the remaining nine deities. And now, in our current time, Deceptuary’s corruption and meddling in our worlds is dependent on infesting our reality with lies, misdirection, and half-truths. That is the purpose of both the Xyphokron and this Order; we are here to dispel the lies and offer Truths to those that wish to accept them. We, in accordance with our Philosophy, must do so without proselytizing and do so free of suffocating Hubris and arrogance. However, so long as we are in our spaces created by and for us, we may speak freely and in full confidence about our beliefs and Truths.

    As of recent developments, we have moved up Echelons to Yrridthmas, which has drastically changed our approach here. While we greatly prefer having to simply teach about the Philosophy in peaceful times, these are not peaceful times. Deceptuary’s evil is on the move and seeks worldly destruction, and such evil demands a rigid and forward response to it. We are released of some of the burdens, and are able to directly call out theigritism and use our humane resources to combat it and to set up the conditions to let evil fall on its own Hubris. And so, to conclude, through the spreading of Truths, one can dispel lies.

    Lies only work when you have no tangible Truth to prove them false. Evil will always seek to destroy evidence of Truth so that lies work, and it is the job of the Ordinance and all followers of the Xyphokonic Order to dispel Deceptuary’s deceptions and set up a world where he simply cannot poison with his lies. In doing so, he will fall on his own sword trying his best to make us fall on it instead. The grave he has tried to dig for all of us is the grave he will fall into; it is our job to offer no ladders to evil and to push the dirt atop the pit they dug for us but fell in instead.
