Silvestris Animaliterra and Carton Mazeotopia: Short Stories - Paperback

by Adriana Dana Listes Pop (Author)

They sent the information in space, to the Universal Core, and got the permission to start the physical and spiritual deleting process. The fall of Niniveh was requested for the same reasons - cruelty, injustice and immorality - being labelled by the prophet Nahum the bloody city, full of lies and robbery, during the rule of the king Assurbanipal. The Assirians were assured by their god Ashur that their city is impregnable, yet it disappeared for ever. The vampires demanded the fall of the Babylon Empire, at the request of the same prophet: It is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away. Babylon Empire was functioning on the same rules, serving the gods of cruelty and physical pleasure, dearest to the king Nabaplausur. The writings on the wall were the divine punishment sign, revealed after the Babylon authorities condemned three children to be closed into a huge flaming furnace, and the prophet Daniel to be put in the den of the hungry lions.
He can, within his range, direct the elements, the storm, the fog, the thunder, he can command all the meaner things, the rat, and the owl, and the bat, the moth, and the fox, and the wolf, he can grow and become small, and he can at times vanish and come unknown.

To carry on their plan, the vampires had to fight the Tenebrae, their battle being as old as the Universe itself. For a thousand years, the warlocks and the hybrids were allowed to rule Transylvania, where the Praetorium Abyssi Terram is located. Horrible things happened during this block of cosmic time, the power being finally taken back. They were merciless and arrogant, considering themselves superior to all humans, butchered by them whenever they felt like. If there is something the Tenebraes hate, it is certainly morality and normality. It's the worst thing for them, people knowing what's right and what's wrong, for they can control only when ambiguity exists. They feared the vampires, but tried to hunt them one by one, reason why the vampires stick together, two by two, never alone. The main power of the fight moved to America, where the vampires founded a new Praetorium, to watch over the earthly world order. Vampires communicate with each other telepathically and in dreams, sending huge bulks of information in seconds. As the information can be intercepted by the Tenebrae, they have to encode it, using a special brain wave length, while half asleep.
When huge catastrophes happen and many people die at once, a powerful signal is transmitted in the Universe, and a vampire is sent to report on the event. Sometimes, they are expected to erase whole civilizations from the face of the earth, as it happened during the Great Flood, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, the annihilation of Niniveh and the ancient Babylon. Some of those episodes were divine punishments orchestrated by the cosmic powers, many of them remaining, yet, unknown and untold. Even though they are now called vampires, they are ethereal, divine entities, their real name being Divine Pures of the High Order of De Ra Cult. There is a connection with the name of the Sun God Ra, as they are a cult of the Lumen Cosmicam, secret kept by

the ancient civilizations, passed on to the Egyptians and the Greeks. It is the pure cosmic light recorded in the Bible that blew away Sodom and Gomorrah, the force of the cosmic ray that blew up that land surface equalling the power of two atomic bombs. The Transylvanian folklore tells us about the Flyers, described as half dead, half alive, powerful forces of the Universe, stronger than the gods - their instruments to fulfil the plans. The plans can change every second, if they are intercepted by the Tenebrae.
The Lumen Cosmicam and the Tenebrae supervise each other at all times, the ability of the Tenebrae being reduced, though. The power of the light cannot be harnessed by the dark, where there is no or very little light
