Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. Welcome back! Before we begin today’s commentary, we’d like to give a small update. The paperback version of the Xyphokron is now available, so if you which to read along with a physical copy but want a more economical version, we now have this option; naturally the kindle version is still available and the cheapest version, but if you’d like to have the hardcover, it’s live as well. With that said, let’s begin the Commentary.

As we left off, we were following the actions of Deceptuary, still exiled in Gheisialez, and his attempts to escape into Xyphojinami by breaking his spirit up into fragments and transplanting them into vessels on Earth. Along with this, the formation of multiple religious factions have spread corruption and theigritism across the Earth—causing those devote Xyphoites to scatter and take refuge as the world slowly fell into corruption.  In this next chapter, called “Prophecy” we’ll continue this timeline.

“They, the remaining, would call upon the Hayles for an answer, solution to the plague that had wiped out their brethren and prompted them to slower eliminate their proofs and trails less they be taken and changed to vilify. To their fortune, the Hayles would answer and give instruction, as well as a rare foresight into the next phase.”

The remaining Xyphoites would pray for answers to the Hayles, and to their fortune, would receive an answer back. The Hayles, with their direct communication with the Lords themselves, relayed a most important message back to the Xyphoites across Xyphojinami but especially the dwindling population on Earth—the targeted world that Deceptuary chose to start his second rebellion. This message, the final sent from the Hayles to the remaining Xyphoites on Earth at the time, has been known since as the Prophecy, and is one of the most crucial messages that we in the Ordinance take as the call to action for what we are here doing now.

“And they shall descend upon the Earth and purify it of the theigrits. The Nine Descendants of the Xyphokonic Order shall come and defeat Deceptuary’s power. In our Prayer, we’ve heard the prophecy bestowed upon the chosen Xyphoites remaining in this realm of Life. Through our spiritual connections in Death shall stay the Knowledge of the prophecy—even in Death, our souls shall be engraved with the prophecy, and it shall be passed on to the next mortal form to which our souls shall take in reincarnation. The nine incarnates shall, one day, descend upon the Earth and destroy the center points of Deceptuary’s power here. By doing this, they shall kill Deceptuary’s power eternally. He shall give full might to combat them, but he shall not be successful. The nine incarnates shall bring him to Terigath for eternity. We shall be saved by the Sacred Children and Live once again in a world pure and sacred.”

The Prophecy, posted above, given to the remaining Xyphoites on Earth, informed them of the existence of the Sacred Children in Kyurakuzin who would eventually travel to Nikconzin and to the Earth to destroy Deceptuary’s vessels there and eternally defeat his rebellion along with sending each piece of his soul to Hell; this action would essentially bring balance to the Spectrum by ending Deceptuary’s corruption while also returning his spirituality to the Sacred Realm, albeit in a broken form and chambered in Hell. Nevertheless, the final deity’s spirituality will once again be with the other deities and functioning as a source of the attributes that originate from it in the core of existence.

The Prophecy also instructed the remaining Xyphoites on Earth at the time that they must commit ritual suicide and become martyrs; this action would grant them Heightened Reincarnation and encode this very Prophecy into their Selves. Upon being reincarnated as Daetos Idols in the most dire of times, these Xyphoites would regroup, form an Ordinance, and begin the arduous task of preparing our Earth for what the Prophecy states. One of those main duties, aside from introducing Humanity once again to the Knowledge of the Order and of the threat of Deceptuary, is to mitigate the suffering caused by corruption by conducting humanitarian deeds. As it stands, that is why this Ordinance exists, why we are here chatting with you now, and why we are working to establish a humanitarian effort to lessen suffering caused by both Hubris and also Deceptuary’s corruption and meddling.

“This message was also not lost to the likes of the Theigriet, who had caught wind of the hints of his prophetic demise. A being comprised and ruled by fear, the words of the Order, kept in clandestine as they removed their presence with intention, would plague Deceptuary’s every thought.”

“Forbidden Realmly Truth, privy to the defected deity, would dictate the clear limitation of the Moraghorzaus Xycrugon in its use towards Deceptuary’s being. He, a deity, would be of deity Spirituality, akin to that of Sacred Spirituality as the Lords would too possess. This, in return, would mean no other Realmly force could inflict Deathly harm to his being sans the other Sacred Spiritualities. Deceptuary believed himself to be untouched by any, and his scheme perfect.”

Deceptuary, through his emissaries on Earth, caught wind of this Prophecy as well. He had originally thought  his plan to be as perfect as it could be. Being a deity, his spirituality is both senior and above all other spiritualities aside from those of the other deities. As such, transferring his spirit into Xyphojinami as vessels and therefore making them mortal would pose no threat to him as there was seemingly no entity that could possibly destroy or kill his soul there.

“But the Lords had once again outdone him, and masterfully so. The Lords had denied Deceptuary privilege to a full incarnate, and while they could not eradicate him for his deity status offered ultimate protection, the movement of his vessels, now parts of his partial Mortality, seemingly protected by his deity Spirituality, would be acutely vulnerable to that of Sacred Spirituality.“

“And who had the Lords sent to the New Realm, realm or mortals, to which Deceptuary had been systematically transferring himself into, thus becoming part mortal himself? The Children, born directly of the Spirituality of the Lords, and therefore the only mortals in possession of Sacred Spirituality; the only mortals capable of touching the Theigriet’s vessels. Beyond just the touch, they could destroy parts of his soul and cast it to the Hell, chambered in eternal nightmare and Punishment.”

But upon hearing hints of the Prophecy, Deceptuary quickly realized he had been outplayed long before he even crafted his scheme in the first place. Whilst granting themselves the power to create direct mortal Incarnates and requiring an incarnate to have two divine spiritualities to take form, the Lords of the Xyphokonic Order had denied Deceptuary the ability to create his own direct Incarnate as he was both exiled in Gheisialez and no other deity would ever combine their spirituality with his to create an incarnate.

Along with that, each of the nine Sacred Incarnates of the Lords, being directly descended from them, would mean each Incarnate possessed Sacred Spirituality—the only type of spirituality that can destroy and kill Deceptuary’s vessels in Xyphojinami. And of course, Lord Kurakku had long-ago established all spiritual entities, upon Death, that are embedded with Great Theigritism would immediately be sent straight to Terigath’s Hell for all eternity—chambered and tortured. This meant that all of the vessels Deceptuary had already sent to Xyphojinami were acutely vulnerable to Death so long as they were destroyed or killed by one of the nine Sacred Children. Deceptuary had foolishly placed half of his spirituality in immediate harm’s way without even realizing it, and it was impossible to retrieve the fragments of his soul and transport them back to Gheisialez; they were now vessels in Xyphojinami until the point in which they would be destroyed and sent to Hell.

“Time would come soon when the Children would locate and destroy his vessels, and in haste, Deceptuary would need to fully move his being into Xyphojinami and inflict Deathly injury to the Children himself if his scheme were to have any means of fruition. The remnants of his deity being, withered and greened, a rotting corpse, would only need yet three or so transfers to complete his mortal formation, and so Deceptuary would need to act in haste to find more vessels.”

Deceptuary was consumed with fear and obsession with trying to hinder the possibility of his own Death, but he soon would realize his only option now was to hasten his full transfer into Xyphojinami as a fragmented mortal, locate the nine Sacred Children, and immobilize or kill them before they successfully destroyed all parts of his soul.

“The rare find, an aimless FaLelle in the outer reaches of Gheisialez, was the key. Along with a rotting soul with intact heart, acts of abhorrent Nature committed, he would transfer his Will of desperation into the FaLelle, and create a new being, cognizant and aware, a Living vessel.”

“The vessel, of which Deceptuary would name Zrabrevogue, would be sent to Xyphojinami and act in a new destiny. The captured FaLelle would be tasked with finding a strong Shianiki mortal and to bifurcate their soul in two, spawning two entities capable of accepting the final of Deceptuary’s Spirituality, and completing his transfer into Xyphojinami.”

Searching all of Gheisialez, Deceptuary stumbled upon a wandering FaLelle, and in an act of desperation, once again transferred part of his spirit into the blank entity. For the first time, Deceptuary created a living vessel that imprinted his most craven and desperate parts of his personality. The living vessel would be named Zrabrevogue and would be sent to Xyphojinami and specifically to Kyurakuzin to aid Deceptuary in finding more living vessels to hasten his escape.

“The locale, Kyurakuzin, would be the scene of Zrabrevogue’s ill-deeds. Directly, on the world of Xyanei, home to the Nine Children. Guile in his scheme, Deceptuary, acting through Zrabrevogue’s being, would seek a Shianiki close to the Nine Children and aim to corrupt the mortal, splitting them in two.”

Zrabrevogue was tasked with finding a Shianiki close to the Sacred Children with a strong enough heart and soul that they could be split in two, led down a path of destruction, and killed so that their souls would be cast to Gheisialez as partial beings capable of hosting a portion of Deceptuary soul each; he would then resend them back into Xyphojinami as powerful living vessels to do his bidding. By this point, Deceptuary’s body in Gheisialez had grown frail and withered as most of his soul had been transferred into Xyphojinami, so he estimated only two more vessels would be necessary to fully escape his exile.

“Of the ruling empire, the powerful and wealthy families of Shianiki that would surround themselves in the Children’s divine energy, would Zrabrevogue find the noble family by the surname of Orgiaku. He would descend upon them one unfortunate night as a dark being of torment, and demand they provide him with the first born of the family head’s offspring.”

Zrabrevogue would spend his time cursing and terrorizing a wealthy and powerful clan of Shianiki close to the Sacred Children known as the Orgiaku. After several generations of failed offerings, a child was finally born that met the requires giving to Zrabrevogue: a strong heart and soul.

“...In her brave and pure heart, the young Sanrui would defy the clan and offer her soul in sacrifice to provide a charm of Unconditional Love that would save her son, the babied Orgiaku. In the pact, she would openly declare that this sacrifice would rid the Orgiaku clan of Zrabrevogue’s curse, and she gave her Life. Unknown to the Theigriet vessel, the charm worked in secret too. Her charm has placed her own heart into the child. The desperate Zrabrevogue split the young Orgiaku into twin boys. In the process, Sanrui would die as per the pact of her charm. Thus, two Orgiaku sons would be, with one holding full heart blessed by his mother Sanrui, and the other, partial-hearted and ripe for Deceptuary’s toying.

As he demanded the sacrifice of the child. Unknown to Zrabrevogue, who was blinded by Deceptuary’s desperate conquest, the mother of the child offering had also outplayed the Theigrit. By sacrificing herself in an attempt to protect her child from Zrabrevogue’s dubious desires and to lift the curse on the Orgiaku family, she had placed a powerful charm on her child before said child was offered to Zrabrevogue. The child was then split into two separate living persons—twins with one holding a Terigath Pathan and one Holding an Aerigeth Pathan. The twin holding the Aerigeth Pathan, however, held within him the sacrificed heart of his mother. This charm effected protected this twin from ever falling into the hands of Deceptuary. Unfortunately, the other twin was still in Deceptuary’s hands and would very much fall into that fate.

“As planned, the broken and disheveled soul would find itself awaking in the rotting Existence far into the deep reaches of Gheisialez, where Deceptuary waited eagerly for yet another opportunity. To his great frustration, the motherly Sanrui’s charm had left the broken Karaka with only partial heart, as the true heart of the son was with the imprisoned Heaven-bound twin. This meant the horrid transfer would still be ineffective to moving the final parts of Deceptuary into the mortal realms. However, the fear of the Children destroying his soul would break the Theigriet, and he would use the rotting soul as is. Once again, transferring his Will of Pride into the broken soul, and in committing of the abhorrent acts, would Deceptuary weakly send the infiltrated Karaka, now a vessel of the Theigriet, back to Xyphojinami. The weakness of the transfer would still see a plague on Deceptuary’s scheme, as while his soul would be implanted in Karaka’s new mortal Self, the Will of the Theigriet was not strong enough to control the Self of Karaka, and Karaka was free to move as he wished, often being a defiant and bothersome piece to the puzzle. Still one last vessel was needed to move the feeble deity into the mortal realms.”

The clan, ashamed by the results of the curse and the sudden deaths of the mother and eventually the father of the cursed twins due to grief-stricken suicide, eventually decided to cast away one of the twins and raise the other. The son(s), named Karaka, would spiritually be linked but physically separated. To the misfortune of the clan, they had disowned the twin carrying his mother’s heart and had decided to raise the twin destined to be Deceptuary’s next vessel. After a life of great chaos, adversity, criminality, and eventually Death, the cursed twin would be cast out into Gheisialez and into Deceptuary’s hands

However, Deceptuary would soon discover the results of Karaka’s mother and her charm to protect her child. Her love not only denied Deceptuary both twins as his last two vessels, but because her heart was tied to the entire entity known as Karaka, Deceptuary would be prevented from fully controlling Karaka even after transferring his soul into Karaka’s body. Infuriated by this yet still filled with fear and Hubris, Deceptuary carried on with the horrid heart transfer anyway—inflicting Karaka with his greatest Will of Pride. As Karaka was tied to his other half and his mother’s heart, he retained his own Free Will to defy Deceptuary’s direct control, and prompted Deceptuary to earn his service rather than command it.

“The Time was dwindling before the Children would task themselves with fully locating and destroying his soul, so Deceptuary would bargain to the vessel Karaka, free of Will, to aid him in the grand scheme in exchange for immeasurable power. He would request of Karaka to breach the barriers of Time, and grant him the power to do so, and to task him with assembling all the greatest followers of Deceptuary’s legion, the mortals Deceptuary had used as anchors for all his vessels. He would ask Karaka to assemble them on Earth, the site of his coming, and for them to bring the vessels, to one place.”

Frustrated but running low on time, Deceptuary would promise Karaka great power and anything he could possibly desire for his future cooperation and then tasked him to return to Xyphojinami and assemble all of Deceptuary’s emissaries and vessels throughout time to one place. There, Deceptuary would conduct the final transfer and fully escape into Xyphojinami as a fragmented mortal.

And that concludes this chapter of “Prophecy.” As it stands, Deceptuary has transferred most of his soul into Xyphojinami out of fear of the Sacred Children and their ongoing operation of sourcing out his vessels and destroying them. We were introduced to the Prophecy and the existence of Human Daetos Idols that have joined together to form this very Ordinance. Next week we’ll go over the final chapter of the Xyphokron’s first book “Xykozheiz.” Until then, have a Sacred Day.

—AHG et al.

Greetings from the Xyphokonic Order and Ordinance. Welcome back, readers and followers. Today, we jump into another heavy portion of the Xyphokron, and the section that explains the current state of Cosmic affairs that we live in today regarding the destabilized realms we live in now due to Deceptuary’s scheming. In this next chapter, entitled “Conflict,” we will discuss Deceptuary’s nefarious actions whilst exiled in Gheisialez, the use of abhorrent spellcast to prolong his powers, the gathering of loyal servants to carry out his plans, and the establishment of his corrupted visions among mortal Humans on Earth. In this chapter we will be speaking of the creation of theigrited philosophies—those either hijacked by Deceptuary’s Will or created by his meddling—and how said philosophies worked to spread corruption across the mortal Human world on Earth. Let us begin.

“The Theigriet would not be dissuaded, as the Lords expected, and would see the Laws of Reality be crafted to keep him caged in the outer realms of Gheisialez. That obsession in fear would be of the greatest motivator of his chaos. The deity status would keep Deceptuary at his place in the fading nothingness, far too vast of Spirituality to move freely. Yet, the Gate of Zeiga and the fragility of Mortality’s vacuous vessels would give open to a means of influence, and he would Willingly so partake.”

Deceptuary, exiled in the outer regions of Gheisialez, feared his fading existence above all else, and spent his time concocting a scheme to free himself and continue his rebellion against the Xyphokonic Order—still filled with the desire to become a supreme god of all worlds despite its futility. As a deity, Deceptuary could still influence the realms through cracks in Reality created by his own corruption. Human Souls moving through the Gate of Zeiga—the passage between Xykopsysomi and Xyphojinami—were vulnerable to corruption moreso than those souls of Shianiki, and Deceptuary took advantage of this weakness.

“While those in the Kyurakuzin, natural Shianiki, would be of the standing to fight off the influence in most case, the Humans would see to it a plague be drowned in segmented forms among the mortals of Nikconzin. So that, Deceptuary would take a hold of worlds and blind the Humans of their sense in the Order. A festering of broken code, of corruption, and of strayed philosophy, though not unexpected or disallowed, would see the spawning of Humans in rebellion of Reality.”

Using his corrupt spirituality, Deceptuary would leak his corruption into the Gate and infect souls coming into Xyphojinami. In doing so, mortals with weak constitutions would fall victim to his dubious divergence and lose sense in the resonance of the Xyphokonic Order. Instead, many humans would diverge and form their own philosophies disconnected from the Order. This action alone was nothing of concern, as natural divergence in philosophy was expected and very much fine; Deceptuary’s divergence, however, would lead several ancient tribes of Humans, particularly on the planet Earth, to create a new philosophy very much mirroring the ideals that Deceptuary hoped to impose on all of existence.

“Yet the intention was not of reform nor of Mercy, but of Self-preservation and of rebellion. The strayed philosophies, ones of direct lineage to the image of his godhood, Birthed for the means of forming an army in defiance of Reality. For this he sought stronger aid, that his slow seeping influence would not be sufficient to breed such a rebellion.”

In what is considered now to be the middle east, several religious movements would eventually spawn from this region of Earth, with three major movements leading the charge. The most senior and initial philosophy, initially established by the ancient Hebrews, would eventually center itself as Judaism. This philosophy originally spawned from a combination of natural divergence and the dubious divergence caused by Deceptuary. The philosophy itself created the image of a monotheistic god, all-powerful and unquestioned, who had tested humanity’s loyalty to itself. And while the original philosophy itself was not created intentionally by Deceptuary, he would eventually notice this divergence and attempt to influence and communicate with these new human followers—hoping to assert himself as the image of the god the ancient Semites worshipped. In doing so, Deceptuary hoped these followers would succumb fully to his influence, head his every command, and eventually become corrupted enough to become his warriors in the rebellion by killing all who remained connected to the Order and all other faiths that strayed from worshipping him solely. To his misfortune, the ancient Semitic tribes following this philosophy lacked the malice and petulance to morph into the blood warriors Deceptuary hoped for, and would continue to follow their philosophy without the need to conquer and kill on his behalf.

“The disheveled Nature of castaway souls in Gheisialez would play the role, as one would see its way to the Theigriet’s grips. Once a mortal of Earth, now a broken mangled Soul in Gheisialez, the sickened Detarc Revelius Krighe, would be the first of the grand victims of his evils. Lost of Core and begging for a chance again, Deceptuary would see opportunity.”

In the interim, Deceptuary stumbled upon several broken souls cast to Gheisialez to rot for their immoral actions in their previous lives as humans. The first was a man named Detarc Revelius Krighe. Krighe, a broken soul with no heart remaining, was the perfect being for Deceptuary to manipulate. Offering to rebuild Krighe’s body and send him back to Earth, Deceptuary would grant Detarc a second chance on Earth as an emissary. However, Krighe would only be given place back on Earth again under the conditions that Krighe serve him indefinitely, and that Krighe aid in the creation of artifacts of pure evil on Deceptuary’s behalf.

“Deceptuary, a deity, privy to forbidden Truth, would see the opportunity to move himself into the New Realm in pieces, to ensure an immoral Mortality through such means, and to move freely among the mortals and spread corruption in great form. For this, the forbidden Knowledge of the Moraghorzaus Xycrugon would be in use.”

Deceptuary, having the knowledge privy to only those of high level as a deity, knew of and was able to conduct a forbidden spell known as the Moraghorzaus Xycrugon, or the “Horrid Heart Transfer.” In doing this forbidden spell, a being of incredible power can transfer their heart and strongest Will across realms or into other empty vessels as a means of staving off Death in an attempt to gain immortality. In Deceptuary’s case, as a being of deity status, his spirituality was so vast that he could theoretically conduct this process multiple times until, eventually, his entire spirit would be transferred out of Gheisialez and into Xyphojinami within multiple vessels. Once completed, Deceptuary hoped to gather a legion of mortals to take over Xyphojinami,  use the realm to clash with Xykopsysomi, and eventually conquer both to attack the Sacred Realm and the Lords.

“…The Heart, required in first transfer, would be embedded in the flask. Instructed to hide the flask from all sight, Krighe would be called on again to be of ill-use, as the contract was written.”

Without much hesitation, Deceptuary granted Krighe his body back in Earth, now branded with Deceptuary’s essence and servitude. Deceptuary then called upon Krighe to stand on Earth as an anchor for Deceptuary to transfer his Heart to. Requesting Krighe find an obscure glass flask as the first vessel—one that be hard to determine as anything remarkable—Deceptuary performed the Horrid Heart Transfer and transferred his Heart into the flask along with his greatest Will of Fear. This Flask of Fear was then hidden.

“The taking of Life from yet more innocence, Krighe called upon yet again to use the horrid transfer to move more of Deceptuary’s being into the mortal realms. In the form of a sword of future legend, embedded with Deceptuary’s Will of Malice for the Order, formed into the Sword of Malice, aptly, and then dropped into the hands of men of many eras, causing misfortune, Death, and bloodshed for eons.”

But Deceptuary was not close to being finished. Next he commanded Krighe to find a magnificent sword, one of legend, and use it for the same nefarious horrid process. As before, with Krighe as an anchor, Deceptuary would transfer another part of his soul into the sword and embed it with his Will of Malice against the Lords.

“Among the disheveled souls of Gheisialez came three, all of composition found suited, and in wish to be returned. A stable of his normal operative, would Deceptuary craft new destiny for these three broken souls and weave a world of chaos to humanity within the grander scheme. The first, patriarch of an elder village of strayed believers of Earth, Ranz Jzudahzeilz, Death spawned from the murder by a lowly robbery. The second, Gheisuhz dej Trinte, a mortal of Earth killed by the lover of his brother, for whom he had murdered for lying with another man. And the third, Izlaye Macus, a man who had been betrayed by his tribe for a divergence of belief, and in retaliation, had slaughtered the men in their sleep in had forced himself upon their women, yet was overwhelmed and captured, aptly hung in response. These three would be used as tools to initiate a new spawning of disbelief and incitement in war of philosophy to craft the perfect warrior of rebellion…”

However, Deceptuary was not lost to the failed attempt to goad the original human tribes to do his bidding on Earth, and found their lack of bloodlust unsatisfactory. As such, he saw fit to create his own philosophical legions using the suffering of the original divergence tribes as a stepping stone. In doing so, Deceptuary directly orchestrated the spawning of two major religious factions on Earth among humans and pitted the two against each other and the original Semites in order to create a grand struggle to create the most loyal and vicious warriors he could. Finding three more broken souls in Gheisialez, Deceptuary made their acquaintance and once again offered the three their bodies on Earth back in exchange for their servitude.

These three men, named Ranz Jzudahzeilz, Gheisuhz dej Trinte, and Izlaye Macus, were each brought back to Earth as servants of Deceptuary both to create more vessels for him and also to orchestrate more religious factions on his behalf. Deceptuary concocted a grand scheme to use Jzudehzeilz and Trinte as the key factors to spawn the new religious movement that would become Christianity. Ranz would be reborn as Judas Iscariot while Gheisuhz would be reborn as the figure Jesus Christ. The mythology of these individuals, as orchestrated by Deceptuary, would be that one would betray the other, who would be propped up as a prophet and of immaculate origin. Gheisuhz, playing the role as said alleged prophet, would be executed after his betrayal by Ranz. His followers would see this moment as a pivotal moment in their philosophy, already subscribing to the idea of him being immaculate and the messiah alleged in previous iterations; therefore, his sacrifice was one to their god itself and it would subsequently absolve them of their sins. This tale would spawn the creation of the Christian faith, one of immense proselytizing and of eventual crusades and conquest of lands and people with the intention of spreading their influence across the Earth.

For Macus’s case, he was sent back to Earth as the figure Mohammad, meant to foresee a single, ultimate god and proclaiming said vision was the only truth of the world. In response, he would spread his vision regionally and orchestrate a bloody rebellion and conquest of many lands in an attempt to impose his new philosophy across the world. This rebellious conquest would naturally come into conflict with the other faction of Christianity  and, of course, the old world philosophy followed by those of Jewish origin. On the part of the class between the Christians and Macus’s new legion of Islam, this was by design. Deceptuary hoped the conflict between the two would sharpen both and create a single legion of religious warriors who would corrupt the Earth with his influence, regardless of which faction would be victorious.

However, in terms of the conflict’s effect on the Jews, Deceptuary found their existence distasteful for their lack of loyalty to his demands and hoped that the various factions he spawned directly would wipe them out for their disobedience. Much to his frustration, he seemingly is unable to successfully orchestrate their destruction, nor was he fully able to string about the other two factions to successfully create his warriors, at least as we currently stand. All three of these religious movements are theigrited in nature as it stands now; however, it’s important to note that the initial Jewish followers have rejected Deceptuary’s Will and weren’t created by his direct action (and have been targeted for this action), Christians have largely strayed and broken themselves into so many demonization that the original intention has been diluted and often times in opposition to Deceptuary’s direct Will, (mostly regarding less fundamental denominations) and the Muslims have largely preoccupied themselves with regional conquest and infighting among their own sects to form a cohesive global rebellion (although, of the three, they have been the closest to the level of rebellion Deceptuary had envisioned yet failed to manifest).

“…An amulet encrusted in cerulean gem, one of the greatest temptations, was Willingly taken. And in use of his heart, and with Willing commitment of the abhorrent acts, would once again allow Deceptuary to transfer the horrid Will of temptation of ultimate power into the amulet. As with others, the amulet would be placed in the path of many others, causing corruption and great misfortune.”

Regardless of the influence spread by these religious movements, Deceptuary also had other intentions with the servants responsible for much of this chaos. For Ranz, an old amulet from his previous life, one of tempting status, was used as the next vessel for Deceptuary’s soul and greatest will of Temptation naturally.

“…the toiling of written evils, old scrolls, and scripture of unholy lies. In using his heart, and with Willing commitment of the abhorrent acts, would again give Deceptuary privilege to transfer his Will of hate into the scrolls, lacing each word with hatred of the Lords. The scripture, hidden soon thereafter, was deemed too damning to let circulate wildly among humankind.”

Trinte would spend his time while alive toiling away in ancient scrolls filled with the hate and anger that Deceptuary had for the Lords, and these archives were used as the next vessel for Deceptuary’s greatest Will of Hate for the Lords. These Archives were then hidden prior to Trinte’s Death.

“…given untold material riches in the conquering under the new philosophy, would take upon a staff, one to demonstrate the rebellion of the Truth and the replacement with falsehood. With the sacrifice of heart, the ritual of abhorrent act on the innocent committed, Deceptuary would transfer yet again the Will of rebellion against the Order into the staff…”

Finally, a staff won in the vast conquests of the middle regions, and brandished by Macus himself, was the next vessel for Deceptuary’s greatest Will of Rebellion. Through the combination of the multiple vessels now circulating in Nikconzin and the establishment of religious movements working on behalf of his Will, Deceptuary spread corruption all across the Human world of Earth—hoping to make this planet the landing point for his entrance into Xyphojinami while trying to escape obscurity in Gheisialez.

“Significant Time would pass, before Deceptuary would once again gain opportunity to move. Yet his influence strengthened in many ways upon the sickly Earth. In simple chance of Cosmic malfeasance, the opportunity would come in the form of a wealthy son of a merchant, Benavuer Talakaizin.”

The level of corruption has reached such a height that Humans on Earth would succumb to it by their own Hubris alone. An individual named Benavuer Talakaizin would be the next victim to fall to Deceptuary’s servitude through the sheer power of his own Hubris and corruption alone.  

“A tempting drink, and alluring grasp, of disabling accord, the intoxication of the mind let to addiction. Sickeningly so, the grip on Benavuer would be relentless. Secret sips, taken in the night under no watch, stolen from the church and from whenever else, sunken in sorrow, would suffocate the young man.”

Having ran from his home and an arranged marriage by his parents, Talakaizin escaped to France and fell in love with a woman by the name of Maria. Maria, a Catholic, invited Talakaizin into her Church for worship and communion. The young man, originally Muslim, eagerly disavowed his family’s faith for Maria’s, and in doing so opened the door to the consumption of alcohol—wine in particular. The severity of his taste for drinking was the catalyst that would change the once sound mind into a corrupted nightmare. Talakaizin would often claim to hear demons in his head when intoxicated asking of him to commit bizarre actions. Little known to him, Deceptuary’s influence had spread so far that even his corrupted resonance was enough to speak to Benavuer and to manipulate him so far as to create a full vessel on Deceptuary’s behalf.

“Ill in all ways, body and mind and soul and heart, and turned to his captive, the one claimed of Love now turned into sickening obsession and of disgusting authority over. Taking full advantage, violating, and breaking all humanity, would Benavuer, totally lost in madness, then place his hands around her neck. Once again uttering the praising of Deceptuary, would he then murder his beloved Maria, and drag her vessel into the darkened church.”

“…with abhorrent acts already committed, while Benavuer as the anchor, Deceptuary would take his Will of intoxicated power and transfer the Will into the goblet…”

On one fated night, after a long-standing bout of drinking, Talakaizin would burn the village he and Maria lived in, kidnap her and drag her to the town’s cathedral before shouting his praise of Deceptuary directly. Following, he would take the life of his beloved Maria, brandish the goblet used in the sampling of “the blood of Christ” from the alter, and be fully possessed by Deceptuary’s Will on that fated night. Acting as an anchor, with abhorrent acts already committed, Talakaizin would be used to turn said goblet into a new vessel for Deceptuary’s greatest Will of intoxication with power. Talakaizin would pour in yet another glass of wine into the now perverted goblet, drink from it, and consummate his full marriage to the corrupted forces before deserting the body of his lover and disappearing with the goblet in hand.

From there, the progression of corruption within the Human planet of Earth continued, with nearly all corners of Earth overtaken by some form of corrupted influence. This is where the chapter “Conflict” ends, but the schemes of Deceptuary have not yet finished, and the Lords of the Xyphokonic Order were very much aware of the moves Deceptuary had been making on Earth as they had already anticipated he would exploit the Gate of Zeiga and the Hubris of Humanity to his ill gain. We’ll continue next week on this journey what we know as present day. Until then, we make a brief reminder that this is Sacred Ground, we speak our Xyphoist views here without limit as this is a space we created for such purpose, and that we hope you all have a Sacred Day.
