9 For in truth, the Last Days shall come unsuspected. 10 And the halls of recklessness -- the embodiment of impurity
-- will overcome the masses with simplicity, folly, and need. 11 And they shall not heed the word, nor seek atonement. 12
And their children will be oblivious to the fallout of defiance and deceit. 13 The hatefilled and the winged will fall from
grace and the memory of their works will be no more, and they will be bansihed from the kingdom. 14 Consensus will fragment,
and the faithless shall be easily led to the edge by trickery and false prophets.
15 Astray and following a fruitless path, the needy will become blind and deaf of ear. 16 Yet the decree on high will be
heard by thy assemblage. 17 And the dejected and selfless will shed their coarse robes and revel in the newfound understanding
of musical exultation. 18 Consecrated by the almighty flowing waters of conviction, they will be sentenced no more to the
confines of mortality and ash.
19 And each shall find delight and reclaim their place at the table. 20 Each will prosper and become eternal bound to the
earth and its spirals. 21 Each will preserve and sustain, and acknowledge their affinity to the Great Symphony of
nocturnal origin and the 5-notes of scale.

Book II: Exile & Atonement
A nd the voices in blue rang out across the heavens. 2 With fire-bolts and thunder, their music
and hymns would flow freely from the hands and mouths of Masters. 3 The people in legion would unite as one tribe,
and peace and equanimity envelop the land... and there was abundance, propserity, and harmony. 4 By night silence, the whispering
wind would fill the ears of believers and non-believers alike… enrapturing all.
5 By the calling from within, they would migrate North and disperse to spread the Word in blue and brown tone. 6 And unto
them.. ten commitments were given. 7 Forever they shall be inscribed on parchment and stone. 8 And follow them thy must, or
be cast into the pit of betrayal and deception by false prophets and harbingers of doom.

22 The chosen and converted will humble themselves before the tones of Godliness, and rise exulted. 23 Each will proclaim
their freedom and all will share in the Blues News. 24 And shine the beacon from within, the words of Son gelled
forth from the watchtower of intervention amisdt the low spirits. 25 And the words of commitment flowed from the Lion’s
mouth, staunch... and plain.
26 And the righteous opened their ears, to hear. 27 As the moans of the Dead and the howling winds of past discretions echoed
forth across the Lands, so did the reckoning. 28 Ensconced they were, with eyes open toward the fast and darkened skies. 29
And the birds of prey did come. 30 Four and seven horns would sound, and those in Watch would wait no longer for battle.
31 Their swift and mighty swords of wood and brass would blaze paths of harmony and discord; and all would be free from
the shackles of quiet clam and non-expressive devices. 32 And each was allowed to choose their own path Home...
for each could see the way... and that way be Blue.
