On Inheritances in the Golden City
While it seemed that on that path of ascension with violence one would inherit fully the golden key and mansion owned by they who they slew, it seems now that some mansion have a second key, given to those who owned the mansion once to those who they trusted in case of their death. Then they shall fight over that mansion until the day they die- who owns it, the slayer or the lover?
But more interestingly let us ponder those born with one foot in and one foot out of the celestial city. Let us ponder those who are born of the sanguine mausoleums of the golden city and those endless obsidian tombs far below the earths, the tombs that rot beneath the corpsestars.
How can one undergo the funeral procession when they breathe in the celestial city? When they already live there? When their fall means that endless fall into the obsidian tomb of their fathers? How can one slay who they meet on the golden road? How can they even rise up the courage when see those looming eyes of he born beneath the corpsestars? How can they make one suffer the same suffering they have felt from their father's slaying?
No, there could be one way- to make one's soul bloom, the path that no person and everything has trod, though her flower is nourished by the bees of reality and she never suffers the hunger pains of the toothed gate. But their flower is half-bloomed and stopped. From both parents it inherited its form, but it did not receive enough vital nutrient to grow, nor to hunger. How then shall their soul bloom? Will it be a challenge as difficult as the blooming of any mortal soul, or will this flower only need the slightest drop of celestial dew to blossom? We do not know.
Author's Note. A sequel to the Esoteric Religious Text that's once again about Godhood.
Note that being a living god is associated with death and blood and hunger and gold, and being a dead god is associated with death and rotting and the underworld and obsidian.
