Order of the Heavens, Origin Myths

This therefore is the order of the Heavens.

The Creator is Father of All and through Him all things were made. He is the heart of the Garden of the Gods, and the sun is His, shining even past the seventh gate to light the outer darkness. Hallowed be the name of the Father, who knoweth all things and from whom all good things cometh, blessed be His name, forever and ever, Amen.

Closest to the Father is Ysue, Anu the Firstborn, whose face is always turned to the Father. Quick mercury is the sign of he who did submit himself to all things that he might redeem the children of Heaven, that all things might be renewed in him. Honored be Ysue the Redeemer, who did overcome Pain.

Isana the Brightest is eldest daughter of the Father. The Fair are her children and fair venus is her sign. Her children are immortal, but Isana waits for the bidding of the Father before using the fountains of Life which he did give her in the beginning. Blessed be Isana, fairest of the children of the Creator.

Maia the mother of all living and silver Sheshki, son of Tia stand next in order of the Heavens. They are bound forever together, never to be parted, as the earth and the moon. Maia loves Sheshki, and Sheshki will do all things for Maia his wife. Maia is mother of all the gods of the world, and from her the fountain of Life flows. Sheshki guards the remnants of Tiamat, that her peace be not disturbed until the ending times. In Maia and Sheshki are mortality and eternity, and their children are so bound to the cycles of death and life. Praises to mother Maia and to guardian Sheshki, who did sacrifice themselves nigh unto Death for the Heavens and the world.

The empty dwelling place of Lamnu lies at the door of the first gate, even mars the desolate.

Beyong the first gate and the first veil are the shattered coils of Tiamat who sleeps. Among her broken stones and dark places evil things are waiting.

Next is Kishar, giant among the children of the Creator, whose sign is jupiter. His eye ever burns inward and outward, and to him were given the Red Keys of the Second Gate. May Kishar ever guard us from evil.

The great brother of Kishar is Anshar, as the brother of jupiter is saturn. Anshar follows the strict path, and to him were given the Yellow Keys of the Third Gate. Many are the servants of Kishar and Anshar. May Anshar ever guard us from evil.

Desolate and empty is the abode of lost Enki, torn from her moorings. The sign of Enki is ouranos who lies on its side, and the Fourth Gate and the White Keys that pertain to it are broken, only to be recovered in the ending times. All mourn the passing of Enki, lost daughter of the Father.

Nodemi has lost her sister Enki. She has lost Lamnu, her favored brother, and her heart has grown cold. Who will bring himself near unto Nodemi, whose winds are ice and whose voice is colder than the stars? May Nodemi be blessed, who received the Blue Keys of the Fifth Gate, and may the sad daughter of the Creator be comforted. May Nodemi whose sign is neptune ever stand strong and guard us from evil.

The Spirit of the Dreamer, Mabar, lies in all places, ever vigilant. Mabar, Sheshki, and Ysue who is Anu, these three are the greatest warriors among the hosts of Heaven. Mabar it was who defeated Tiamat, when she was swollen with the power of the Evil One. Mabar it was who defeated two Abyssals, even Madness and Destruction. May Mabar never again return to madness, and may his protection always guard us from evil. Blessed be Mabar.

Among the children of the Creator are lesser beings: far Ex Machina, orderly Droan, the twilight crossroads of Kythri, and others born of Isana, Maia, Sheshki, and Ysue, of Nodemi and Anshar and Kishar. Among them are the last surviving children of Lamnu, of Tia and Enki. These too are the children of Heaven, who guard mortals and gods from the evil beyond the gates. May they be blessed, and the worlds which they hold. May all the Garden of the Gods be blessed with the Light of the Creator.

Beyond the Fifth Gate is the Sixth, and beyond the Sixth Gate is the Seventh and Final Gate that guards all the worlds of the Creator from the cold depredations of the children of Atrophy. Chained to the Final Gate, in torment until the ending times, is Lucifer the Betrayer, Father of Lies, that great satan, who even now harbors evil in his heart. Lucifer who was once Lamnu, favored child of the Creator, cast down into the outer darkness. May the Father ever keep us from the paths of the devils, who followed the son of perdition and were so cast out of Heaven.

Honored be the gods of heaven and their children.
