    Drop of Genesis

    Aldin the Great has said to all:
    That the world is fermentable,
    Know this : that at the end of all
    Aldin will distillate our souls.
    In His Celestial Alambic,
    He will blend our spirits and mix
    To create bubbles, worlds anew
    Sparkling with joy and life renewed

    En vérité, Aldin le Grand a révélé,
    Que toutes choses en ce monde sont fermentables,
    Sachez donc qu’à la fin de l’éternité
    Il collectera et distilera nos âmes
    Dans son immense et grand alambic céleste
    Il brassera nos esprits d’un geste leste
    Pour créer tels des bulles, des nouveaux mondes
    Sautillants, remplis de vie, que la joie inonde.

  • Sacrifice to Atlach-Nacha

    Sacrifice to Atlach-Nacha

    “In hellward realms wherein all hope expire
    Beyond the reach of noontide’s brightest ray,
    In caverns carved by ancient igneous fires
    Beneath Eiglophian mountains bleak and grim,
    The ebon-bodied Spider-God holds sway
    And spins from rim to rim,
    Athwart a chasm vast and bottomless,
    His endless web of raddled bands
    Like to the tangled woof of dooms decreed
    For all who moil in mortal pointlessness
    And clutching, mundane greed.
    […]”
    – Richard L. Tierney, “To Atlach-Nacha”

    “Si proche des enfers que l’espoir expire
    Hors de portée des traits du soleil,
    Au fond de cavernes creusées par le prime pyre,
    Sous les monts Eiglophiens sinistres et cruels,
    Le Dieu-Arachnide tressaute et vacille
    Se balancant, tournoyant de gouffre en abîme
    Traversants de vastes abysses sans fond
    Sur sa toile infinie, bond après bond,
    Se moquant des mortels au temps compté
    Qu’il dévorera sans qu’ils s’en inquietent
    Trop préoccupés par leur futile avidité
    Ne verrons que trop tard le Dieu qui guette
    […]”

  • Kieran (Commission)

    Kiran, determined, fierce eyes fixed on his future, filled with absolute resolutions. Is he thinking of Phila ?
    Nemesis, wearing its appearance of the three-eyed old man is waiting, as always.
    Yaldomnu faces it, giant, monstrous.. fixed forms are an just options for a god.
    Above all is Father Yahweh, God of the universe, Creator of everything, yet is everything.
