Noah: Is there enough here such that we can start asking questions?

Kerry: Sure, question away. Additions welcome as well.

Noah: Ok. Was the crucifixion to prevent a flood, distract B Side while the axis was assembled, or both? If it was to prevent a flood, by what mechanism was the flood to come about (anything more concrete than the stars being right)? If as a distraction, by what mechanism was the access assembled?

Kerry: The crucifixition was not a distraction, but rather the act necessary to establish a new axis. The suffering of Christ was a distraction. The flood cycle is much longer.

Noah: But the axis the cross created is symbolic of a physical axis created elsewhere, one presumes at the north (and south?) pole (as Merlin and Nimue seemed to have concluded). That is to say, the "real" esoteric axis is not at Golgotha, but somewhere else. Do I have this right?

Kerry: Nope. The exoteric axis is that which is physical, ie it runs through the poles. This axis is coeval with earth (the planet, not the dry landmass.) The esoteric axis by nature is a spiritual axis, and has no physical nature/location. However, the Tower of Babel was to be another axis, and the Spindle of the Dao may have been a different axis as well. Heck, the Spindle and the Tower might even be the same thing/place. Harald has two pieces of magical stone, one from the Spindle, and one from the Tower. They look a lot alike, and a vision of the Tower exploding (granted by the amphora of blood soaked earth) showed that it was built of black stone, exactly like the pieces Harald has.

Noah: Do we have rough dates for the birth and death of Ikulu? Do we have a rough date on Ayesha and the Burkerae shenanigans?

Kerry: Igwilf is born ~420BC, maybe a little later. Death is around 280BC. That seems a little long, and we know she has a relatively normal human lifespan. Still, not too far from that.

Noah: What is the source on elves from Mu?

Kerry: Noria, aka The Star Maiden, taught the elves the means of "going West", ie separating their Ba and Ka. She is the great aunt of Caesara, and is referred to in Fragment Regarding 'Mu' from a Greek Miscellany. The elves survived the Flood and learned how to "go west" from Noria. Only the Mu people listened to her, so I deduced that the Mu folks were elves.

Also, dates on floods and such are from the Al Aziz. I'll post it as soon as Hal emails it to me.

Noah: Not for nothing, word on the street is that the Al Aziz is an unreliable source. Those numbers sound right though. When you talk about the "Elder Gods" in the age of Middle Life, you are talking about the likes of Ouranos and Gaia, right? There isn't an additional age before them.

Kerry: The Age of Middle Life's Elder Gods are folks like Yuggoth. Probably pre Ouranos and Gaia, as I think they only show up for the last cycle.

Noah: Now that is what I was afraid you were going to tell me.
