The Testament of Sol Deus

Book 1

In the eternal darkness before our actuality, there existed nothing. Then, in an instant, CREATION. Mystic beings of great power sprang forth to dwell upon the ether, each attuned to a singular focus. Sol Deus, the Sun God, who shown brightly against his fellow beings, was immediately attacked from behind by the now forgotten archon of shadows, who attempted to use the radiance of our Lord God to conceal his cowardly act. Sensing the attack, Sol Deus quickly pivoted and used his spear Leviaculo to impale the shadowy being, and justly bound the power of shadow as his own.

The other beings, entities of pure chaos, in their own lust for power and fear of Our Lord’s new strength, fought against each other and Himself, unleashing a cosmic battle with beings slaying beings and feasting upon each other’s power. Often a victor would be slain before completing their consumption, and the essence of the slain would thus be lost across the ether.

Sol Deus, in his divine wisdom, fought only to defend himself and used the chaotic natures of his fellow beings to His advantage. In this manner, most of our God’s foes were slain, and His Might surpassed the mightiest of the other pretender gods. Opposed to our Great Lord remained but fifteen other beings, with the second mightiest being the great beast Tauroct. As all eyed one another Tauroct did charge the archon of rebirth upon his four powerful legs and impaled her with his great horns and lifted her above his head, her essence spilling around Tauroct from her lifeless body. Tauroct's cloven hoofs then turned and came at Our Lord with great speed, but just before Tauroct could drive his gore-stained horns into Our Lord, Sol Deus drew Leviaculo across his under-neck and slew him, and took as his reward all of Tauroct’s powers into Him. It is this final battle that we often celebrate in our imagery and at summer solstice in parable.

Of the fourteen who remained, twelve did recognize that they were the least, and came to Our Lord with heads bowed low and offers to serve. Sol Deus, in his great sagacity, did accept their allegiance, and assigned to each a period of cosmic cadence. That each would own and regulate their own, but would align with each other so that none would become more powerful than the rest, and that all would serve as counter to one another. To this they all ratified their covenant with Tauroct’s blood.

The last to remain free willed was Luna, who desired to become more than the proceeding twelve and came to Our Lord as the harlot in an attempt to seduce our Glorius Father. But despite the great need that permeated his Holy Loins, our Lord Sol Deus did not lose himself in the false warmth of her offered softness. Instead he showed his contempt for her false temptation, and spent his seed by his own hand.

Across the cosmos his seed thus traveled, until the spent part of his being had cooled to become the world we now walk upon. When Sol Deus saw what he had done he was struck with great inspiration, and cast toward the cooled world his spit and his breath, granting our world the air we breathe, and the water we drink. But our Great Lord was not content and, eyeing the subdued Luna who had been watching meekly, he offered her a bargain. For in His Wisdom he knew that the chaos of female idleness could be harnessed for the purpose of good by providing her a task under the direction of His illuminated sovereign guidance.

With the bargain struck, Luna again offered herself to His Glory, in quavering submission and lost in honest desire. Sol Deus did accept her offering but once only, using only the soldier’s position of coitus, purely out of duty and not pleasure. Upon the completion of their union new life was created, deities of a lesser but chaotic nature. For this reason, Our Lord named her Requesta, for he knew that she should do whatever was asked of her, and that she should follow Him in all ways, being a little sun of silver who reflects His Glory when He shows her His will.

The Testament of Sol Deus

Book 2

The first demigod of chaos to be born was Alamedarns, who, like all his siblings, was born fully grown, but whose fiery temper and destructive nature would destroy that which He sought to create. As such Sol Deus was forced to slay the eight-legged beast and cast his carcass upon the world, where it melted the stone and burned toward the center of our world. There it pools to this day with the occasional burst of volcanic rage to ravage the land.

Next to be born were the fraternal twins Ennuid and Plysh, whose beauty surpassed that of their mother. At their first breath each began squabbling with the other, with opposed viewpoints from the mundane to the complex, as was true to their nature. In rage Luna did slay both, in part out of fear that they would unite against her, and in part of jealously over their great beauty. In His sorrow, our wise Lord sent their remains down to the world, where the children of each would compete as creatures of air and sea, and would together balance the power of their elder brother, Alamedarns.

Following the birth of the twins was a daughter who Luna named Asintmah who was of magnificent stature, full of life and beauty, who presented herself with sedulity and joyfulness. But when Luna challenged her daughter with disdain for her apparent meekness, Asintmah rose to this challenge with strength, courage, and fierceness, proving that she was His daughter too. Pleased with what he was shown, Our Lord ask his fourth born to shepherd the new world with her wisdom and grace, and thus did Asintmah willing dissipate her being and give life to all the creatures and plants across the lands of our world. For she is, and will forever be, a bountiful reward for those who work with effort yet seek balance in their life.

The next creation of the union between Our Great Lord and Luna was also a daughter, who had the head of a sheep, the body of a lion and the wings of an eagle. She also had great intellect and equal arrogance, addressing both father and mother with wit and distain. With great shame for her ugliness and nature, Luna did name her Sinphx, and upon hearing this Sinphx mocked both Luna and our Lord, uttering dire taunts, curses, prophesies and witchery through riddles to disguise her prattle.

Their last-born came into existence with golden and onyx colored hair grown long around his head and neck. This deity was able to not only control his chaotic nature, but to address his parents with nobility and humility and in doing so asked both parents to heed him before judging his name and nature.

When granted, he proceeded to recite to Sol Deus the glory he had won when he had fought for his existence and what tragic eternal calamities he had prevented with his great victory, while reminding Luna that her very existence rested upon Our Lords righteous judgement. To Luna he privately reminded her of her scheming and treachery, her plotting and prolicide. When Luna looked toward Sol Deus in fear of his wrath, he assured her that glorious deeds should be openly shared in retrospective, but shameful deeds are owned by the culpable, so that the truly penitent could repent through self-acknowledgement of their deeds. Our Lord, who named this offspring Leontoceph, then set him a task, to judge Sinphx and to carry forth any judgement thus given.

To this Leontoceph did, and rightly determined the true nature of her being and the outcomes that would be the result. Thus, he did judge his sister and slew her with dispassion as punishment for her intended misdeeds. But Sol Deus, in His Wisdom, had seen some potential in Sinphx and gathered her dissipating embers and spread them randomly across the new life emerging upon the world, with some gaining more and others less of the drifting essence. Thus intelligence, ignorance, consciousness and vanity were spread in varying degrees to all the creatures we encounter upon our travels in His World. For Leontoceph, because he was able to demonstrate unprejudiced wisdom, was placed upon the seat of judgement in the underworld, where all travel upon their death in the mortal realms.
