The Imperial Library is the colossal receptacle of knowledge, myths, and other literature within the Golden Palace. In this thread, one can find various myths of the Syrixian and Dubalnic cultures.

I will update this periodically whenever I have written a new myth. For now, feel free to read, and don't hesitate to leave comments and constructive criticism.

The Prajayad Gita

Chapter 1: Creation

Before this time began, there was no universe. The only thing was a vast dark void that existed but also did not, meaning an eternal night without end while all things were in limbo; nonexistent but also embodied by the Great Void. A lone giant lotus flower floated in the endless void. The only thing that existed. Asleep within it lay Shri Prajapati, lord of all things. Everything was so silent and peaceful that Prajapati slept undisturbed. However, Prajapati was waking up. A humming sound began to tremble, Om. It grew and spread, filling the emptiness and throbbing with energy.

The night had ended, the great Prajapati awoke. As the darkness turned to white light, Prajapati's two eyes of sight were now open. Prajapati was not fully awake, however. He opened his mind's eye, the third eye of spirit and soul, and light of all colors emerged from Prajapati's third eye. The colored light created all the elements, and the pure white light was focused into the stars, with the space in between becoming the inky black space it was before. Prajapati remained in the lotus flower, and after the universe was created, he began to meditate.

Prajapati focused his energy into a paradise that he would put at the crown of the universe. For it would have life, and it would also be his sandbox, a place for him to test things before using them elsewhere. As he meditated, the rocks that soared through space coarsed into a spherical lump of rock. Then Prajapati split the lotus flower into three. He made one part into the Sun. He made another part into the water. He minced the final part of the flower into trillions of pieces, so small they were but atoms. As his energetic flow increased from the meditation, the atoms began to fuse until they made oxygen, a new, special element the colored lights did not create. For this element was blessed by the lotus flower of Prajapati. And it would create the sky, and fuel all life.

Planet Eras was bare, but it had an atmosphere. Prajapati knew what he needed to do next. He created grass, flowers, trees and plants of all kinds. To these he gave feeling. Next he created animals and the insects to live in the land. He made birds and many fish. To all these creatures he gave the sense of touch and smell. He gave them the power to see, hear and move. The world was soon bristling with life and the air was filled with the sound of Prajapati's creation. And through the mists of time and Prajapati's guidance, the chosen species evolved. One who had more intelligence than the others, and who, through Prajapati's manipulation of his own systems, would evolve to resemble his own image. And this species was called the human. And this "human" species would grow to take over the world.

Chapter 2: Arjuna

And so, one fateful day, Prajapati's plan came to fruition, and the first group of humans were created on a great Island. And it was within this group that the firstborn human, Arjuna, came to be created. Prajapati commanded the Trees and the Animals and the Men to prostrate before Arjuna. The Trees prostrated, and the Animals prostrated, for Arjuna was the First Man, and he was to be the leader of men on Eras. However, the other people did not prostrate. They fought Prajapati's command as well as themselves, and they all vied for power. This was the Original Sin. The greatest sin. The sin of Betrayal, of Greed, and of Dishonor.

And Prajapati tasked Arjuna to fix this, embodying Arjuna with the Blessing of the One God. And so Arjuna rode in on his golden horse and the glory of Prajapati shone about him. Yet still the people did not prostrate. Yet still the people did not see the glory of the One God, the Lord of the Universe. And then Arjuna spoke. His words were thunder, and his eyes glimmered with the light of Prajapati's blessing. And Arjuna said, "Good people who cometh from the bosom of the One God and who hath been blessed with Intelligence over the Plants and the Animals, and who are a result of centuries of systematic success, why now do you not prostrate against that who created you?"

And the people could not reply, for they did not know how. They could not speak their minds without showing their sinfulness; their hate and their jealousy. And Arjuna noticed this, and replied, "Thou all hath been blessed by the One God, and in the name of Justice and Gratitude, it is appropriate to prostrate, for without He who created all you would be naught." And the people were stunned. How could they have been so blind? They now knew the ways of Prajapati, Lord of the Universe. And they knelt on all fours and they prostrated. And Arjuna then dismounted his steed and prostrated, and even the steed itself prostrated, for all are equal before the Lord of the Universe.

And so it came to pass that Arjuna was the Enlightened One. And all Guru-Babas, the wise teachers who guide the faithful and who speak the word of Prajapati, trace their historical ties to him. And Arjuna was the first Guru-Baba. And he led the people to the coasts of Magadha.

Chapter 3: Vikarna

And Arjuna led his people to Magadha. There they bided their time, and built a city, Chhapra, which still stands today. Some of the common folk of rural Magadha saw the light, but Prajapati's task was not done yet. It would be swiftly advanced by Vikarna, the 9th Guru-Baba. By the time of Vikarna's ascension, a spring of humanity had occurred worldwide. People from all across the Great Island came to trade in Magadha. However, there was a reason Prajapati had chosen Magadha for Arjuna's followers to settle at.

Not all but many cities in Magadha bought, sold, and utilized slaves. While the rural people of Magadha had converted, the population centers boasted their own gods. This would change with Vikarna. The three greatest slave cities, famous in reputation for both their inhuman cruelty and economic wealth, were Vidisha, which still stands today, as well as Dharkot and Kheraam with Vidisha being the most senior of the three. These cities were known as the greatest not just for their massive slave workforce or their great wealth, however. They were infamous for training slave soldiers, soldiers who could fight like no others. Vikarna would free the slaves, and gain an army in the process. He would found a kingdom, with the blessing of Prajapati, and govern the masses through the principles of Heaven.

Dharkot willingly converted. The masses of the city accepted Prajapati as their lord and abolished slavery. Kheraam tried to bribe Vikarna and promised him an army of slave soldiers, handing him a golden whip. Vikarna took the whip and control of the soldiers, and then broke it in half. He inspired the slave soldiers to become free and join him within the light of Prajapati. The people of Kheraam soon converted afterwards. Only one city remained.

Vidisha towered over Vikarna's army. The city was, at the time, the wealthiest and greatest in the area, though it was on the fringes of Magadha. The city sent out a champion, and the champion failed against Vikarna's own. The city sent a volley of arrows, which inflicted barely any casualties. Finally, Vikarna stepped up to speak. "I am Vikarna, the Lord's Mouth and the Great Teacher. Your masters may have told you lies about me, or they may have told you nothing. It does not matter. I have nothing to say to them. I speak only to you, for as a teacher I have deemed it that this city must be taught. First, I went to Dharkot. Those who were slaves in Dharkot now stand behind me, free. Next I went to Kheraam. Those who were slaves in Kheraam now stand behind me, free. Now I have come to Vidisha."

"I am not your enemy. Your enemy is beside you. Your enemy steals and murders your children. Your enemy has nothing for you but chains and suffering and commands. I do not bring you commands. I bring you a choice. And I bring your enemies what they deserve." Vikarna then paused, and then stamped his foot and raised his fist. And the attack on Vidisha began with a simple command, but a command that would change the Great Island forever; a command that paved the way for Prajapati's light to shine on the entirety of the Island.

"FORWARD!"
Three Accords of the First Emperor

1. COURAGE

And Akbar the Conqueror- he who was Borne with the Truth of Kingship in his right hand and the Truth of Power in his left- seized his Sword, and pointed it to the sky. And then he yelled with a fury only PRAJAPATI Lord of the Universe could behold. And he pointed his sword to Bhima-Varaam. And he said AUR HAM DEEVAARON AUR SHAHAR SE MILENGE. And he said AUR HAM JYOTI KE GEET MEIN MAHATVAPOORN ADHYAAY LIKHENGE. Thence he pledged his armies would take the walls and the city, and write an immortal chapter in the song of Glory.

And he cared none for those who would see him dead, as he marched his armies into those of the city. And the defenders were routed, and the city captured. And the Empire was coming. And the first pin struck. And the Conqueror captured Jamadarh. And the Conqueror captured Dhantara and Andhra. And the Conqueror captured Surat and Mandakatra. And the Conqueror captured Sailendra and Auranga and Mahakhanta. And the Conqueror captured Chhapra and gained the blessing of the Guru-Baba.

2. WISDOM

And Akbar the Conqueror- he who was Borne with the Truth of Kingship in his right hand and the Truth of Power in his left- in the days before the conquest of Surat and Mandakatra did come to the Esoteric Grove, the Enchanted Grove, in the Wests of Meru-the-Khém. And the Old Ones awaited him. Their stripes were a furious red-and-orange, and a dark black- black as the night. They who were called CAI-LLOTH; this Grove was their Place. It had been and it shall Be. And he bade speak to them, and he said AAP LOGO KE DILON MEIN YAAD RAKHANE KE LIE HAMESHA EK LIJEND BANAENGE. And he said AUR AAP MAHAAN DVEEP KEE CHAMAK UDENGE. And he said AUR AAP APANE AATMA KE AGNI MEIN EK SAMRAAJYA KA NIRMAAN KARENGE.

Thence he pledged to the Kyloth Dragons that they would create a legend forever remembered in the hearts of the people. And he pledged that they would fly the skies of the Great Island SI-HAI. And he said they would forge with the fires of their spirit an Empire. And the Kyloth Dragons bowed their heads, and they became Human-Friends. And they flew the skies above and fulfilled the words of he who would become the First Emperor.

3. POWER

And Akbar the Conqueror- he who was Borne with the Truth of Kingship in his right hand and the Truth of Power in his left- came to Patna-The-Pedestal-Of-The-Sword in royalty, with the crowns of All Kings. He seized them and let them fall into the depths of a great cauldron, and he had them burned until they were only a liquid mass of gold. And he raised his fist in triumph, and the skies roared at the power of the Chosen, the greatest of all kings. And he anointed himself greater than any Raj, the word for King.

He was Sam-Raat. Emperor, king of all the kings. And he was the sword which PRAJAPATI Lord of the Universe would enact his Will upon the world, and the Will of the Chosen Ones. And the First Emperor's wise eyes were shining and alive with the celestial fires of the divine love and power of PRAJAPATI Lord of the Universe. And none dared obstruct the Conqueror when he climbed the steps of the ultimate hall in the Black Fort, and sat upon the throne, where he spoke as a thousand thunderclaps, saying I AM EMPIRE COME.
The True History

Chapter 1: On the Creation of Reality

Under the End-Not-Rock EMIT there was the House of THEY. All was and was not. That Ancient and Most Noble Truth did enter into the waters, and the shining growth of the First Empirical did spring forth. The First became the Second became the Seventh became the Third. The Seventh will return again one day. The Third Empirical of Time, stretched by That Ancient and Most Noble Truth, devolved from the Dimension of Seven to the Dimension of Three. Though today we lie in the Ninetieth, the Dimension of Seven shall always be greater- for the Dimension of Three was never abandoned by the lesser empiricals.

All and itself emphasizes the Forth-Strife of the House of THEY from the blood-fibers and the realizationaries of That Ancient and Most Noble Truth. Under-Time ended when the twentieth empirical folded thrice- the weft tried to run upward and around the conception into and for the non-cardinal points to the fourth and sixty-ninth. The Citadel was made, and the spike fell in, causing the twenty-first; All was and no longer was not, and That Ancient And Most Noble Truth came to come to come to be. The rotatory vibration of the fixed primum mobile did at last conceive entry, and khuz DUL was achieved. The plantmatter undulated through the ages and the waters and the eyes of fourteen ends, and the rock hardened. All WAS.

Chapter 2: On the Creation of Our People

The power of ENTRY was not true, before khuz DUL, which is a ventillary apiation of the fortieth taneth unable to see or enter mkharak but able to enter ndirak as the seas and the time-winds have. A bird crested over the wind in these elder days. It came to be downed by a stone and did fall up and down and left and right, and through and under the non-cardinal points. But the stone, it was certain, did careen from above. The turning of the mind entered ndirak such that the stone's relative positions are absolute in their primacy and are inside and through totality.

The rock came to land and stay beneath the ground. The bird wished to destroy the ground the rock came to embody and be embodied by from vengeance but feared what it could become, so it pushed off the water, the dirt, the sun, so the rock stood in its hole. But it was in the very pushing that it came to grow. The knowledge of the soil and the Entirety is water and sun and the power of TRI'IU-FHOR. We came to be the sprout inside this rock-egg, but also the dirt and the tree from the future but in and around the past. A sea of khalatological lights dotted the land; a unequivocal plinth of suppositionism. The Soul Eye of the Entirety and That Ancient and Most Noble Truth filled the Core Men, though they were small. They are Us.

The Surface Men, meanwhile, burned bright, then flickered, then burned bright again in the stars and the thread, though not forever lest the void would fill with their terrible truthless light that sucks the thought from thought from thought. And the bird was, in truth, everything.

Chapter 3: On the Rise of the Cities

Enthatoria IS all. Enthatoria IS naught. Rhaz-kha RHAZ is Enthatorial Azar'aa is prolix exitation. To keep one's powers intact at such a stage is to allow for the existence of what can only be called a fixtral spirit. Pure fixtral kheLA-RHAZ is only granted to the holy, which comes in a myriad of forms, half of them frightening and the other half divided into equal parts purposeless and assured. This swirling dream is the waking power of the People of the Core and of the Time and of the Twenty-Seven and Ten. Enthatoria is the highest royalty and its revealing tenet- series of truthful beliefs is written in the skins of all emotion and cosmology.

It is the sacred power bereft of a double. The uncultivated land of the Surface Men is the rule. Creatia feels this the power of the great sort in tandem, but the wise may know its first incantation in the entry of the Introductionary Place as the first appearance of That Ancient and Most Noble Truth, which is Liberty, Power, and Love. Rather, it is its own Road, paved in the power of khalatic royalty. The truth of creatia, a shore that all of interest crashed against, came to the Core Men. They became Us, though they were somewhat Us before.

An echo of That Ancient and Most Noble Truth guided the Domestic Power, and it glimpsed the House of THEY. And the Cities rose. And the Truth came closer. And Wisdom, by Love and Enthatoric Sight, became apparent.
