The White Stone Tossed

[SteppeNomad 1552]

The Heavy Stone Sat There, Before the Bonfire

 

 

 

 

The high priest gazed upon the shrine and he could not bare weep, and drip his pure tears into the tainted waters of the shrine. With not but his crook, he climbed the great mount, and brought forth the stone carrying this message. His words.

 

"COME FORTH! SONS, DAUGHTERS OF THE SOURCE! COME FORTH! GATHER AND SEEK! BRING FORTH YOUR WORTHY, FOR WE MUST ANSWER!"

Those FOES of Scorthuz MOST HIGH, Source Refined, The Purifier, The Great Waters, The Endless Font, in their hubris dare strike upon the most righteous.

As the waters of the sea crash the heavy stone, or the wave carves sheer the face of the mountain, we must break upon the enemies of the PURE. Do not FALTER from your ways, Knowers of what is True, What is pure cannot be tainted, as what is tainted is washed pure.

 

Gadhm, High-Goblin philosopher had much warning for such rashness by those who seek The End. For the pure wave would wash away filth like so much mud from a statue of polished white stone."

 

 

Words of The Shining One, Son of The Sun, High-Priest of Scorthuz, Priest of Hesthor, Seer of Pure Paths

 

THOSE WHO BREAK THE PURE COVENANT ARE TO BE WASHED IN PURIFYING WATERS

THOSE WHO DEFILE WHAT IS PURE SHALL BE PUT TO THE PURIFYING FLAME

THOSE WHO SEEK PURITY, WILL BE WELCOMED, WASHED, MARKED, AND GIVEN THE PURE PATH, AND CLEANSED AGAIN

DEFILER, COME FORTH, WILL YOU TAKE THE WATER, OR THE FIRE, OR WILL YOU COWER BEFORE THE PUREST HERD

MAY THE DEFILER KNOW PURITY
