I was told by the little birds that the shadows are moving lately. They inch from side to side, pressing forward. They devour the energy of others, because they have no energy of their own. 
"We don't play games with dark forces," the sage warned the white wolf.
But the white wolf didn't seek the shadows. The white wolf could not escape the shadows if she wanted to. She could not get away...
So she didn't try to get away.
She didn't try to beat the game.
She wanted to break it completely.

All the players of the shadow game dwindled away, cursed by the overseers. This group had preserved occult power for generations.
 But they could not control the flow of time. A small collection of families could not account for everything, they could not account for the anomalous. This infuriated the overseers...  And the overseers declared a purge. Before these new energies could fully emerge and change the world behind the veil, they were snuffed out - coerced into joining the clan, or destroyed with insanity before they could learn how to Travel.  The overseers rejoiced. They had taken their crown and preserved it. Nothing anomalous would emerge anymore to destroy them. They'd ground the protest into dust...  Until Eventually, even the souls they had thought they'd destroyed did something Spectacular....  They rose from the ashes into something even more powerful, even more beautiful than the first...  They'd made no contracts and called for no hexes. They only let their power shine.  |

This war was waged in a place beyond time, and thus it had been fought for all of eternity, outside the realm of paradise, at the Gate of paradise.
The chapter here is only a small vision into the whole - one tiny sector of consciousness illuminating the deep structure of The Shadow Game...
It took such a long, long, time, for them all to learn that shadows cannot be fought with shadows.
That shadows could only be fought with Truth, the immortal sword.
And as this battle roared into the infinite aether, they fought over the world that was to be built in the expanse of time.
They fought for control of the future.

The reaper stands among Man now; he is seeking to take his promised goods: the Apocalypse.  Most of the Travelers are already gone. They want nothing to do with this war, or the outcome. There are better places to live...better fights to pick than this one.  When the "anomalies" woke up from slumber...they were already prisoners.  They had to learn the hard way...how to navigate these two worlds.  ...While all the while, forces pursued them, the overseers and their minions, the hive.  The "anomalies" had no knowledge of what they were up against...and for some, the result was atrocious.

The anomalies soon came to learn that great spiritual power meant coping with great suffering and sacrifice.  Awakening was a painful process, like coming out of the body, coming out of the skin.  Those who could not cope with the process of awakening were doomed to become Shades, wandering the dusk of the Otherworld in confusion.  Those who made it through this trial were give "EYES"    When their eyes were opened, they saw for the first time the extent of the overseers' power.  But now that they'd awakened, they each knew they embodied something priceless  ....hope.

It was now time for the anomalies to learn to use their eyes in the world of the uninitiated.   They saw past the ordinary layer of our reality - the harmonization of energy, and the geometry of being - and what they saw, others could not see...  When they spoke about this to others, communication broke down. The general population could not understand, no matter how skilled the messenger... This dimension of reality was simply outside of ordinary perceptual capabilities.   Eventually, the anomalies that did not learn how to recognize the "Others", were culled through energetic predators, or sent to asylums. The dichotomy of living in two worlds, and not understanding what was real, was too much for their minds to handle.  But somehow, a few stumbled into each other. Was it fate? Or perhaps there was something else.... Necessity, magnetism that drew them together. An encounter that was enforced by the universe itself.

The anomalies began to find each other. But not all were friendly...  And even of the ones who were friendly, many would get caught up struggling in a bid for power...for the astral "crown"...  As the competing forces ravaged each other to emerge victorious, the overseers continued to expand their influence...  Human consciousness increasingly directed itself towards the overseers' desires....  But a few anomalies remained, who would not get caught up in fighting one another at the expense of human consciousness...  Together, they had even more power - power to change the structure of time and space....  Power to access the field of human consciousness, and embed new ideas in it...  Soon, new seeds were arising in art, politics, music, and entertainment all over the world...  Synchronicities in the material world begun to align with their story in the astral realm...  It was the powers of the allied anomalies, altering the fabric of our reality and perception:  |

What did it feel like to be initiated into the secret world where the anomalies dwelt?  Some notice the energy first. It touches your skin and gives you tingles - Sometimes the pleasure encompassed all:  Other times, there was nothing but endless hell:  Some notice the visions first, visions from the starry heavens, the planets, the skies - Like celestial whispers:  They all noticed the patterns, now. Patterns in everything.  Some spoke to entities.... They spoke to Angels, and heard from them how to pursue a purer heart. But Angels are no trifle... Godly as they are, still very dangerous.  Others spoke to Demons, and asked these demons to do them favors, such as making them more powerful... Or spying on "competition"... Even bringing other anomalies down, or rendering them helplessly psychotic....  But it would be useless to classify these anomalies as "Good" versus "Evil"...  The most "Evil" had plenty of "Good"  And the most "Good" had plenty of "Evil"  But some fought for all of humanity. They embraced Love.  And others fought for only themselves. They actively embraced Destruction.  |

Can't believe I'm online-friends with one of the most acclaimed Anomaly-Prophets of the 21st century. Did you see the article that came out 2033 about Cay? Impressive.  |
