History of the Arcane Evolution

Before the infusion of time and space as mankind understands it to be there was a place that survived by its own. Antaraxia. So called for this was a place beyond pain, such concepts had not entered the thoughts of the Gods who had created man. In origion the species of man was no less equal to the Gods than the relationship of an older sibling to a younger one. the Gods having been cut from the very same fabric of man also showed their tendencies to be manipulated and controlled by that void of life as well. The fact life had been established by Gods to man was a relationship of gratitude rather than servitude as modern gatherings of ancient religions tell us. In fact the race of God and man became so dilluted that all offspring were infused with the same skills as the eldest Gods. And in that sense every man was God, able to create and destroy life within his own power. As we assume there was only the moods of lust, love, content, and happiness. The other emotions such as hate, vice, cynicsm etc. would have no basis for existing. From the history this is all that has ever been made clear of that time. The evolution of man since then and up to this point, is the farthest he has ever been. It is unlikely that our modern ancestry is even capable of feeling the same way, for both good and evil are now instilled in us.

From that supreme existence of Gods and man a changing in the atmosphere which produced life began to change. And as man and Gods watched they found themselves being further and further separated. the Gods, not controlling life, but merely being strands in it were forced to watch as their loved ones were thrust into a new existence in which there was never a constant. Man begain to lose the ways of the Gods and began to recall those far off time in which they were one. Quite frankly, man, began to use less and less of himself until he entered a state of deevolution. The lack of use of the brain thus made it unnecessary for certain parts to exist. Man only began to evolve upward again once the state of deevolution had reached non existence, pre single-celled oganism life. This came to pass to rid man of any prior locked knowledge of the Gods and previous lives etc. However, the intuition as proven throughout is so strong man still found its ways to reunite with the Gods. In most cases the Gods worshipped by a people indicate their lineage. Such is the case of the Mayans and Egyptians.

In essence what the study has taught us is that man is slowly, somehow by some unnamed force evolving to the point of time-space reconciliation. In other words, a place and tine which the latter of the two has nothing to offer man. It is a place where time ends and man's true knowledge dawns upon him. It is at this point the evolution of man in this form of reality has ceased, the portion of a journey complete. When such a thing happens, man will not only be allowed to rejoin the Gods in which he was forced to abandon, but will rival their wisodm and experience. From here a new journey, deo Juvante, is set to be staged for the newly enlightened ones. This cyclical evolution produced from out of the void has yet to be understood, unfourtunately so has the fabric in which we live as well. Ideally one would like to believe that if man is truly capable and ready to evolve into a higher echelon of existence, that not only would he return to the world from which he had such a traumatic exodus, but thenceforth grapple with the understanding of the fabric of life which we shall now refer to as the 'first tier'.

Thus the Arecane Evolution serves as man's sole guide up to that point. The Arcane Evolution are instructuctions from the third tier into the second. (The second tier being the home of the Gods). In effect, man in so many words is trying to evolve past life in the living reference-birds, bees, etc.-and become the matter form, the first tier. In being of the first tier matter does not exist based in personal mass, (i.e. my arm, my leg) but rather, forms for mass to exist. Such a concept limited by third tier forms of communication are hard to express in an intelligible form. To help explain the first tier existence we shall refer to an analogy. Think of it like so: it has been shown that atoms move faster in warmer temperatures than at colder ones. Meaning less change happens-in crude terms of course. Think of third tier existence as a near absolute zero, where the existence is so thick litteraly you may cut it with a spoon. Now what happens when the temerature increases the activity-productivity-of such atoms increases. Here is where the second tier comes into the picture. On the second plane the atoms move and produce at such an astonishing rate one would simply assume they did not exist. By having highly productive matter it makes for less need of personal mass. So the need for density decreases. Now as one enters the first tier, the assumption is that atoms and molecules move at such a rate there is not enough coherence and form for second or third tier mass to exist as they once were. An almost every atom for itself regime. It is a place where the stress is not on being matter itself, but rather to continually supply such matter for those things which might use it. (Second and third tier lifeforms).

Here is where man as a species takes a turn toward the evoultion. On Xyle 4 the first discoveries of the essences of life are found. The stars that imploded and crystalized their existence were found. The power was so much, it was used as a weapon. Thus scientists, religious leaders, and royalty studied the most remarkable gift of the Gods. It was concluded that man could manipulate such potent 'magic' by combining the essences together. The results of the experiment were disasterous. those that used the 8th or unnatural essence as it was called were able to summon first second or third tier density. Havoc reigned and only through the luck of the Gods was the unnatural essence ever cast away. It was then the essences were hidden away lest the eyes of the commons see or hear of it. So it was held for the eyes of the royal scientists and religious leaders. Here is where the philosophy of the 7 essences began to take life. Through the science of the Xylian people and its religion the term 'Arcane Evolution' was born. As the book came into existence through scribes who wrote verbatim what was reiterated by those whom had used the 7 essences. The book was then published for the eyes of the Xylian royal court. This along with the publishing of the 'Forseeing'(a book dedicated by a forseer on the world of Xyle 4) was hotly debated. the 'Forseeing' gave the theory their world was to be destroyd in the future by a twin who was in line for the throne by an unknown life magic(first tier). This worried many for the man who had published the book was a blind peasant.

There it was decided by that king to send into the outreaches of the galaxy men and women of Xylian blood with copies of the Arcane Evolution so that they may repopulate another world. four ships departed carrying 10,054 people. Two of the ships never survived and the entire crews were killed off. The other ships headed towards what we now call Earth. by the time they had reached Mars however, only a handful had survived a virus that had swept through the two ships. Only five Xylians remained as first set foot on Mars, where the Earthlings had just advanced and annexed into their territory. Of those 5 was a young woman who'd later become mother to Ellyn-Sabrina. She would be the last full blooded Xylian alive. from Mars the family moved to Earth, Australia. Eventually two died of old age. Pamona,(Sabrina's mother) eventually made her way and married Sabrina's father Thomas. Pamona was the only survivor as her brother and sister had gone in separate spaceship and hovercar collisions. The book was all she had connecting her to the home she'd never known. However her life was not to last as she died giving birth to her only child.

The 7 essences power in the Arcane Evolution is never fully defined. The scribes write that there is potential behind each essence which lives up to the ability of the individual. Ideally the essence is looking for a holder that offers it the most amount of potential growth. A mind not yet littered with the ways of the world. In the document it also states that those who accept the essences into their own bodies have an immediate effect. It is said that the molecular structure of the bones condenses. So much so that it is impervious to the attacks of normal man. 'Crystalizing' is the clearest picture we have of the process. Like the change of the diamond. The bones are pressed together so hard as if they were coal undergoing this metamorphosis. At the end of the transformation the carriers of the essences are left with bones that will never break under stress. the bones themselves become diamonds. However, the skin is still brittle and weak and bleeding to death is always a possibility. The only weapons that may puncture the skin though are ones which use diamond in the attacking blade, laser etc. This curious tid bit has neither been proven nor disproven by science and remains only probable.

Another somewhat more aesthetically pleasing feature to the 7 essences is the supposed truth that those who harness the power of life will live the life of a star. The theory arises from several unproven claims that wearers of the essences have lived hundreds and even thousands of years with out looking to have aged a day. the rationale behind the theory is that, as the stars imploded and sent their essence off, it contained the code or ability if you will to form and reproduce another like star given the right conditions. Well the human body is no different from the molecules which make up third tier matter and have less space to compete with. As the star assimilates into one's body, it seizes control of all fuctions which ordinarially keep one alive. In doing so the energy necessary to survive now comes from the essence...like a star feeding from its core. And since stars live billions of years seven plus on average, the Arcane Evolution expresses belief that the human body full of unchallenged space may opperate in the range of 10 to 12 billion years before finally giving in to normal aging processes normally associated with humanoid life. Many of the scribes cite this as a belief the wearers have so that they could be capable of fully guarding the Arcane Evolution, and leading humankind back into the second tier.

The Arcane Evolution is the only known document to acknowledge any theory of existence such as this. The idea that the world of the third tier is simply a training ground to get man to work codependent of each other sends shivers to some and relief to others. If what the teachings of the Arcane Evolution offer are said to produce are true, man being capable of second tier existence, then those that seek it will need all the time they can get. Although a lot may happen over the course of ten billion years, will it be enough to reunite mankind with the ones whosoever desperately love them? Do the seven holders of the essences of life harness the true spirit needed to manifest the change of humanity from third tier to second? Only time shall tell.
