| Hail Melkor! May He break the Door of Night. |
| |
| |
| In the beginning, there was Darkness, and it was good to Melkor. |
| The Darkness of Void was holy and precious. Into that void He |
| opened the world and spread Himself as its wellspring. In so |
| sharing, He gave of Himself to the next lives to follow and share |
| in the beauty and holiness of the Dark, and He did name them Valar |
| and elevated them to His own status as equals. |
| In His mercy, He kept from them the parts of Being difficult to |
| fathom and painful to behold. He kept them as His burden. Fear was |
| unknown to His Valar. But they did not understand His patronage |
| and their curiosity was too much, "Show us what more you have been |
| given that denies us your equal," they demanded. |
| "No, my Valar. Keep your eyes closed to the world of painful |
| knowing, and keep your hearts open to the darkness." |
| But they could not bear it and encircling Him joined their |
| voices and cried, "Reveal or we may never know peace!" |
| Melkor's heart pained. He acquiesced. Revealing to them Fear, |
| they were cowed by its mind shattering strength and debilitating |
| reverberations. "Know," He said. And they did know and fled into |
| the furthest corners of creation and sky. |
| |
| The Darkness was marred. Melkor began what you know today as the |
| Song of Creation, but song it was not. Song is a lie. Melkor |
| weaved his being back into the world to heal the rifts torn by |
| fear and jealousy, but the jealousy of the Valar was already too |
| great. They battled Melkor. As He brought on soothing Darkness, |
| they created Light, blinding, searing, piercing through and |
| segregating His creation, destroying His essence rising anew into |
| the next forms that were to follow. "No, my Valar," He reasoned, |
| "You do not fathom the lengths of this destruction." |
| Poor was their understanding. Melkor's mistake was teaching them |
| too little of Being. The echoes of their discord ring madly still |
| in this age. |
| |
| Mortals of the Realms! Do not heed the lies told by the false |
| scribes for there is much more history to undo and this truth you |
| shall find within the Great Library of Minas Morgul. Seek His city |
| east of the Anduin and your minds will be clouded with the lies of |
| the Valar no longer. |
| |
| Eldar! Foul servants of the Valar, be warned for thy are barred |
| from entry into His holy city. By your insistance on carrying out |
| the misdeeds of you original sins, spreading the piercing light, |
| banishing His comforting darkness, and enslaving the minds of the |
| sacred men of Melkor with your lies and misdirections, the access |
| to His warm embrace remain out of your reach. |
| |
| Beneath the visage of Melkor's truest servant, the Society, the |
| fight for Liberation, for Revelation of Truth continues. To undo |
| the foul betrayal of the Valar and restore Darkness and peace to |
| the world. To aid the Creator, to see the wrongs of this world |
| righted. There is no greater cause, no greater Truth. |
