Chapter 4 - Invocation (the origin)

What is madness? 

For if I knew the answer, I'd like to be it, to feel it in the depths of my bones for it to reap through my veins , it's fangs of violet poison. 

I'd let it play a game of hide and seek in the labyrinths of my twisting arteries,let it rot my body to a decaying mess, to mix in with the land, the sands of poverty,to offer ,my lover a flower of depravity

or

if not that ..... then my heart itself and I'd ask him how it beats, or does it? will it? If it beats?

Or

I'd ask rather patiently, is it just a mass of darkness congealed with the blood of a rotten soul, dripping down something between red and black....for

if I were madness, I'd cease to exist, take it all with me to my grave then exist there forever keeping you captive in my mind. A palace of disfunctionality and greed. 

Yes greed....

greed of you, greed of me.... Greed of you and me....

Together.... Maybe....

Greed of living

Greed of death

Greed of immortality in your stead

Just your stead.....© Red 

Before the creation of heaven there was a time when the term god had not come into existence. This was the time period of celestial beings and no one could imagine to survive in the vast world without spiritual power. It didn't matter whether the said power was of divine or demonic origin the only thing that mattered was the amount of power one could harness. This was, the natural. The world for all one knew only consisted of, the sun, the moon and one big planet known as the milky way and on it 10 different empires spreading over acres and acres of land stood like giant oceans , the stronger ones of the empires enjoying their dominance while the weaker ones waiting to be the dominant. 

At first this planet was a rather lonely place with a few beings in possession of spiritual powers inhabiting it, living their days in leisure and love but suddenly with the increase in population, the formation of different empires started and with that came another strange phenomenon of a booming voice of an unknown origin blessing a few beings from each empire with immortality. 

After this strange phenomenon a few years passed by in a dazed disbelief but with the clear distinction in power among the beings blessed with immortality and the general beings, came the notion of an impending change. Not a single being present on the planet was born an immortal hence the said immortality had to be earned by an individual and with the struggle to become better than the others, a system of division on the basis of power also came into existence.

At this time a rumour started to circulate that the aspect of immortality was directly linked to a being's worthiness for deserving such a blessing thus with this, the creation of a new emotion came into existence. This new emotion was named after much thought and called "Greed"....
