Seer777 (OP) Ride the wings of the mind User ID: 77080859 United States 11/22/2018 01:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Dark One Quoting: Seer777 The Dark One is a primordial, sapient, cosmic force of evil in the universe. The Dark One's goal is to break the spirits and hearts of whatever sapient beings he can influence, and, if freed from his prison, eventually to remake Creation in his own image. His actions appear to indicate that he is also a force of chaos, destruction, and discord, as many of his underlings, as well as Shaidar Haran, seemed to place a great deal of emphasis on increasing the amount of chaos in the world at any opportunity. His existence is revealed to be an integral part of human free will, as his malign influence encourages humanity to make selfish choices. If destroyed, humans (and likely other sapient beings) would possibly become completely incapable of evil, violence, or selfishness in any respect. He is said to have been imprisoned by the Creator at the beginning of time in a separate dimension outside of normal reality, and outside of the pattern, and has sought ever since to break free of his prison and destroy the Wheel of Time and remake the world according to his image and purpose, or alternatively, to destroy creation completely. He is currently imprisoned. [link to wot.wikia.com] [link to i.imgur.com (secure)] cont.. ..the Dark One is described as being powerful beyond measure; a universe-spanning force of evil that is both incomprehensible in its nature and infinite in its being. His presence is described as being beyond space, size, and time, and his essence is said to be utterly empty, yet infinite. Though the Dark One is beyond the concept of time, he is constrained by it in his interactions with the Pattern simply because it is an integral part of reality. The situation is described as being akin to an artist's imagination exceeding the limits of the material they have to work with. [link to wot.wikia.com] cont.. Verin Sedai has noted the Dark One is the "embodiment of paradox and chaos, destroyer of reason and logic, breaker of balance, the unmaker of order". She also states that, while she believes she understands the Forsaken, she has no idea what the Dark One's goal is, what he wants, or even what he is. Moridin has stated that the Dark One's eventual goal will not be to destroy reality and remake it, but rather to simply destroy everything. [link to wot.wikia.com] Choronzon Choronzon is deemed to be held in check by the power of the goddess Babalon, inhabitant of binah, the third sephirah of the Tree of Life. Both Choronzon and the abyss are discussed in Crowley's Confessions (ch. 66): "The name of the Dweller in the Abyss is Choronzon, but he is not really an individual. The Abyss is empty of being; it is filled with all possible forms, each equally inane, each therefore evil in the only true sense of the word—that is, meaningless but malignant, in so far as it craves to become real. These forms swirl senselessly into haphazard heaps like dust devils, and each such chance aggregation asserts itself to be an individual and shrieks, "I am I!" though aware all the time that its elements have no true bond; so that the slightest disturbance dissipates the delusion just as a horseman, meeting a dust devil, brings it in showers of sand to the earth."

I didn't MEAN for that to happen. You know? Quoting: Light of my Little Left Eye I hear ya. That's what it does. It drives one to 'madness' through bizarre and unlikely connections like that. How can it be real..but it is. Th 333 current. Chaos magick. Breaking down or even destroying the belief of what is, and isn't real or possible. The resulting dissonance allows for new concepts to take root. I see the underlying reasoning, necessity and purpose. A sapling won't grow in the shadow of the might oak..

Quoting: Xlegic Seer777, eye of the world... sounds like Lord of the Rings films in some way. Yes. It is the 1st book of the Wheel of Time series. I bought the first 3 to give me something to do other than stare at my phone, when customers are sparse. New York Times quote on the bottom of the cover reads..
