Phoenix Rising, Norvo Ordo

Illuminare light up this world

By Lee RobyPublished 3 days ago 4 min read

The iridescent beams of light cascaded down like sentinels and moon shot rays on stones so large incased in a perfect sublime circle radiant in depth and purpose for all the townspeople to see. It was an ancient ceremonial rite that the stones were erected in an exact perfectly sublime circle each 60 degrees apart creating what would be their first time continuum, and unleash a power so great that the people wept on the floor with tears and crying in adulation, deeply mesmerized by this foreboding windswept power of uncanny disbelief.

The ritual was a rite of passage into an unknown world, and on the day of Solstice the people gathered and awoke to a light that shone so bright it blinded their eyes and made the world around them spin. The stones were in fact magic stones placed before them thousands of years ago by rulers of an unknown world. When the light of the solstice hit the stones the stones would start to spin around like atoms dancing and frolicking in the midnight sky each trying to replace the other whirling and twirling around faster and faster creating a radiant flow of energy and raw power. The stones would soon emit fire and the fire would turn shades of blue, and soon deep purple; the hot tumultuous flames would erect and shoot up towards the sky and a solid beam of light would light up the universe in one fell swoop. The pristine raw energy from the stones spinning creating a vortex would open up a portal into another realm and from the ashes a phoenix stood rising and rising out of the ashes and no more than 3 more would appear rising and rising out of the fire. It was a spectacle to see and the people immediately kneeled to the floor praying and chanting "Our Sun our light and Tabernacle, Our Phoenix protect us and make us whole again."

Then a sudden burst swept the townspeople and they were indeed made whole again each glowing like radiant stars in the dark, deep galaxy. The raw energy and the chanting had unlocked the mysterious of the universe upon the people and they were given the ability to create geodesic domes of knowledge, each multiplying the fabric of existence and usurping mathematical constants and deriving pure bliss. This bliss enabled them to create the Norvus Ordo or New World as they called it, and enact technological breakthroughs of a sustained momentous of exacting light that would generate power and electricity for the town of Lux. Inscribed on the stones would be "Luna suam lucem non habet. Lux lunae a sole venit." The people would call themselves the Illuminare, and would in fact be the chosen ones or Enlightened inhabitants of the Norvo Order or New World. The knowledge that they possessed would be stored in vast libraries and would make the people be able to change the weather, the seasons and to slow time in a fabric that they controlled.

Each year upon the solstice the same thing would happen and they would give homage to the solstice and each year creating a New World. With the knowledge the town would reap benefits and have floating gardens of the fruit and nectar of the Gods, each abundant with flowing rivers and food so plentiful the earth wept and rejoiced in song. The song of the Phoenix rising out of the ashes and providing for the people of the town. The people were now blessed with knowledge, food, and energy. The Illuminare spoke and they spoke volumes for centuries to come. The Illuminare would come up with the guiding light principle of the Universe, and be the chosen ones to be the keepers of a stone ritual known only to the purveyors of the Universe. Each year the Earth would reset itself and become new, providing and multiplying the Illuminare to far reaches of the earth.

The Illuminare would meet each year of the Solstice and bow down and pray and encircle the shrine of the Stones in the town of Lux, each year the portal would open and the Phoenix would rise out of the ashes and the knowledge of time would emerge, the setting sun would diminish, and the skies would scream and rotate each on the same time frame enacting the world's first knowledge of the day, the light, and the year. This would be the first knowledge of the calendar due to the town of Lux and the Phoenix rising out of the ashes, creating a time continuum into another world. We now know that we weren't the only ones inhabiting the Universe, and that time never stood still that within the power of the Sun, the stars and the moon would be a set of Stones set upon a circle, tangent to the Sun, and waiting for the Solstice to unleash Lux, or light of the Phoenix; this time creating a New World. Knowing this the people of Lux the Illuminare the chosen ones were humbled to the fact that they owed their very lives to the Stones that gave them the breadth of knowledge from which they spoke each rising from the ashes.

Each New World giving birth to the other, embarking on a vision, and placating their place in the Hierarchy of Needs in the Universe. They sang songs of liberty, freedom, and light upon the world. They danced and with that gave rise to the Phoenix and the Stones of the Solstice. Each calendar year the stones would spin and the Phoenix would rise, and with it the burdens of the people would shed their symbolic skin and illuminate the night sky, and this would be "Our Sun our light and Tabernacle, Our Phoenix protect us and make us whole again."
