      In the gathering darkness, the Light grew dim upon contact with this cooling Matter. Once again, a forbidding time was at hand, when rampant extinguishing forces could come into play.
      Yet the servants of the darkness were unaware of a central fact: that their Period had expired, and they were helpless before the Divine Power of the Seed.
      Even though the Flame was now practically devoid of its bright tongues of illumination, it was able to revive again.
      The Seed held within itself the ability to send forth new shoots out of the depths to replace the fading ones.
      The Light was inextinguishable.

    In the mist where silence weeps,
    Lies a giant's final sleep,
    Bones of ages washed by time,
    On a shore where shadows climb.
    A cloak of red, a soul alone,
    Wanders through the gray and stone,
    Echoes of a world long past,
    Mourned by waves that gently cast.
    Giant’s ribs, a solemn frame,
    Whisper tales without a name,
    In the fog, the memories fade,
    Of a life that time betrayed.
    On this beach where secrets lie,
    A lonely figure passes by,
    Lost in thought, beneath the sky,
    Where ancient giants came to die.

They were a people that lived on the Eurasian steppes 5,000 years ago and nearly half of people today speak a language descended from their language. Many of their gods also got passed down to later daughter cultures in various forms. Their chief deity was called Dyeus Phter, literally translated as the Sky Father. This got passed down to various cultures, for example Zeus Pater (later just Zeus) in Greece, Jupiter in Rome, Tyr in Ancient Scandinavia, and Dyaus Pita in ancient India.

    The skeleton in the picture is interesting because if it were a human, it would have fallen apart, scattered and been buried. In this picture the huge skeleton of the unknown god has seemingly washed up on shore...completely intact. Why did its flesh fade but its bones stay together if not to say "I am still here" but "I am gone" at the same time.

      @eliteteamkiller319 5 месяцев назад +16

      Well, there are some things about the gods most people may not know...
      You see, gods never truly die. Its flesh is gone, yes. But... should worshipers rediscover this god, over time, its flesh will creep out of its bones, and slowly but surely the god will be reborn. If there are no worshipers, the skeleton will remain until it is buried through eons of dust and debris, and then it will become the foundation for a new mountain, helping the mountain and forests around it grow from its residual power. That is, unfortunately, one of the worst fates for a god, because then it is extremely unlikely anyone will stumble upon it and worship it.
      But, the important thing here is that, in death, the god remains in some form or another, so that there is hope that one day some small sentient animals or people will stumble across it and worship it, reviving it once more.

      It kinda doesn't make much sense. The skull is leaning on the chin, which would not be a normal resting position since it would rotate to lay on its side/face due to sheer weight. The skeleton is also in contact with seawater, meaning that erosion would work fast and easy, meaning this couldn't be too old, which I think is the whole point of the image - unknown dead gods of another age. Never mind the bad anatomy. None of it makes any actual sense, and you want some amount of sense to instill a feeling of the fantastical. This is why AI can be so uncanny across every single subject/theme/aesthetic, it doesn't "understand" what its portraying.
      It's half way there though, that's for sure.

      @@kimlee6643 to me all of this helped the picture. "Good" anatomy would have suggested a big human, but this is supposed to be something entirely different. Whatever its bones are made of survived the seawater with no issue, adding to the mystery but also implying a strength and long-livedness that would have been far beyond humanity. And real artists typically make the mistake of not asking how a skeleton stayed together the way it did throughout the centuries. Aside from the way it rests on its chin you could have asked what still keeps the arm perfectly in line with the shoulder, if all connective tissue has seemingly disappeared. You´d be correct to ask that question, but since I´m (and likely most people are) so used to this error, it doesn´t even detract from an image anymore. In a video game I might just assume the thing is going to stand up and fight me at some point.

    In the mists where silence reigns,
    A giant rests, long slain,
    Bones bleached by time and tide,
    Whispering secrets of gods who died.
    A crimson figure, small yet bold,
    Walks the shore where myths unfold,
    Among the remnants of power’s fall,
    Lost to ages, forgotten by all.
    Yet in the air, a mystery lingers,
    In the touch of salt on skin and fingers,
    A tale of worlds long turned to dust,
    Where even gods crumble, as all things must.

    O be it said from atop mountains high,
    and down to valleys far below.
    That time crumbles things by and by,
    rendering all touched one day hollow.
    Grind down the mountain, sheer the peaks,
    reduced one day to sands.
    And echo unto one that seeks,
    answers in forgotten lands.
    Know that one truth remains unshaken,
    hallowed above all.

    Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
    Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
    And on the pedestal these words appear:
    "My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
    Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

      Amid the torrent of collector's jargon,
      I gathered he'd found himself quite a bargain.
      A permanent conversation piece post-prandial
      Genuine, certified, early Ozymandial.
      And when I asked him how he could be sure
      He showed me P. B. Shelley's signature.

    The fog creeps in on silent paws,
    A shroud for giants, long since gone.
    bleached bones lie scattered on the shore,
    A silent testament to a power unknown.
    The sea gnaws at the edges of the world,
    Reclaiming what it once let go.
    The wind whispers secrets through the ribs,
    Of battles fought, and storms below.
    The world moves on, indifferent,
    To the titans that once walked the earth.
    But in the hush of the fog-bound beach,
    Their memory is a haunting worth.

      ​​@@jenniferbrown8712 Beautiful, isn't it!? It's a dramatization of Eve being tempted by Lucifer to partake of the forbidden fruit, which brings about the fall of mankind, both removing Adam and Eve from God's presence and beginning their journey of growth, pain, joy, hardship, love, struggle, and redemption back to God's presence. It began our lives: humanity.
      If you want to look more into it, I recommend two books: The Book of Genesis in the Bible and the Books of Abraham and Moses in The Pearl of Great Price.

    In the mountains, valleys, oceans, clouds,
    Lies temples left abandoned.
    Civilizations turned to dust,
    Old customs now stranded.
    I look at this place, so beautiful, so divine,
    The place that once flourished all around,
    And yet, when I look at it now,
    There is but a single whisper to surround.
    The songs, the glee, the laughter, the cheers,
    The joy, the sadness, the anger, the fear,
    Every word, every feeling, every action ever executed,
    No more to be seen, nor heard, for it has all concluded.
    I look at this playpen that I made so carefully,
    Filled it with unprecedented spirits and life.
    I realize the consequences of my actions,
    The demise I created, and for it I strife.
    In a fit of rage, I lashed out.
    My children now motionless, alongside their family,
    As I recall their flout,
    Towards the beings they created, that call themselves "humanity".
    As I look down, I notice,
    The humans praying like dogs,
    I regret my actions, and send a messenger to them,
    To inform them that they pray to dead gods.

    I can feel myself on that edge of the water, crumbled to the ground, on the verge of tears, my hands clutching onto my significant other, as she stands above me, holding onto the back of my ruffled hair.
    I don't even know what I'm experiencing, but it can be described as a peaceful allowance of relief, letting go of the pain that has stricken me from grief, turmoil, and the heavy trials of life.

    Putting on my headphones and clicking the link, I was instantly transported to a hidden place deep within myself. It felt like a secluded area of my soul, though I don't quite understand how something so deep can also feel so vast. Maybe the artist who created this music could explain it.
    As I listened, a soft, feminine voice whispered in the background. It felt like there was a message, something important that needed to be said. The message carried the weight of existence itself, making me feel temporary and small. Life is fleeting, and in that fleetingness, I search for all the experiences I haven't yet had.
    Neither my home, family, love, nor work have given me even a glimpse of the feeling I get from this music - a feeling of dissolving and disappearing. It's a hidden mystery, a distant call from my soul. I want to be pulled further in, to drown deeper in its dark, distant paradise.

    In faded halls where silence dwells,
    The once decorated walls tell his tales.
    Once cherished rites and songs of grace,
    Forgotten in time, not even a cold embrace.
    No prayer remains, no offering's light,
    Just shadows of a long forgotten might.
    A distant whisper, soft and faint,
    Of a god forgotten, of a mournful saint.

    The allure of divine
    Screams the horror of deaths
    When I first saw those blind eyes
    Speaking the secrets unkempt
    The urge to flea was dire, then
    Yet my feet resisted to attempt
    For somewhere, I sensed I couldn’t
    Escape from the hallow
    To a place where nothing resides
    Only the oblivions
    What shall I even choose
    If granted a choice,
    A plea to fly or to remain?
    To know my real name,
    I desired through aeons
    Thence, must I stay in this web of fossils
    The bed shared by the gones and the prevails
    Where I shall no longer dream
    Where I shall know nothing
    Will it all be silent, then?
    Or will the noise deafen me?
    If the latter be,
    The fright may devour my rest
    What if the mighty speaks,
    And I won’t be blessed?
    Shall I ever not hear my name?
    Or do I even own one?
    Might the foresee be true, after all
    Perhaps, “I AM NO ONE”.....

    As far back as i can remember all my life saw my mother suffer through different hardships of life. She was a kind hearted woman, always giving more than she used to receive. A firm believer of god, she used to think that god is watching over her and all this pain is are trials, and it all will mean something someday.. i didn't believe in god. But i had faith in her faith. She used to ask me "why don't you believe?" I told her "i believe in you". But in the end she got nothing from her life other than suffering till the end.. in a way her god abandoned her. I don't know if that's the reason i abandoned god...

    In the heart of the forest, where shadows dance,
    My temples stand, a forgotten expanse.
    Enveloped by vines, veiled in green,
    A silent witness to what once had been.
    No prayers ascend, no songs resound,
    In solitude, my presence is drowned.
    The echoes of worship, a distant memory,
    Lost in the depths of forgotten reverie.
    Where do forgotten gods go, you ask,
    When all that remains is a crumbling task?
    We fade into whispers, into the unknown,
    In realms untouched, where time has flown.
    Perhaps we find solace in the cosmic expanse,
    Among the stars, in eternal trance.
    Or maybe we linger in the hearts of the few,
    Who remember our tales, our deeds anew.
    But in the end, we become one with the earth,
    Returning to dust, to our humble birth.
    Forgotten gods, lost in time's flow,
    We fade away, where forgotten dreams go.

    For me…. it feels so freeing & even reassuring….
    I think, in life people unknowingly chain themselves too often to false gods; anything they worship or obsess over (money, power, work, alcohol, etc etc etc…) that takes them away from themselves, their purpose & any healthy balanced living. Distractions really, that if not respected & held in perspective steal from your body, mind & heart….
    So yes, for me, this music has a softness & peacefulness that becomes a gentle reminder & release from any “false god” that can steal me away & hold me down in struggle & pain;
    ….returning me, instead, to my focus with my One & Great Higher Power…. God 💛
    So yes… hear, hear to dead gods 😌

    Carcosa walked solemnly along the beach, his long red cloak nearly grazing the water as it hit the shore. The air was heavy, and filled with the smell of rotting pomegranate. As he approached the massive former divine being, now reduced to a mere shell, he considered what may have brought down such an impossible creature.
    He made his way towards the skull, and began reaching up, placing a foot at the base of its jaw. With some effort, he managed to pull himself to the crevice where a nose had presumably been. An orange light glows within.
    Carcosa squeezed through a hole in the center, and crawled into the spot a brain once resided. He reached a hand out towards the light.

    In realms where time's forgotten sighs,
    Where echoes of lost prayers arise,
    Lies the domain of gods long gone,
    Their tales now whispered, hushed, withdrawn.
    Their names engraved in ancient lore,
    Yet in the silence, they are no more.
    Forgotten altars gather dust,
    Where once devout would kneel in trust.
    Their temples crumble, worn by age,
    Their power spent, lost to the page.
    No hymns resound, no candles burn,
    In crypts where once their essence churned.
    Their dominion, now but a dream,
    A faded echo in the stream
    Of time that flows relentless on,
    Long after their existence gone.
    Yet in the whispers of the wind,
    In shadows where the memories pinned,
    Their essence lingers, faint and cold,
    A tale of glory once untold.
    For even in their silent grave,
    Their legacy still dares to brave
    The passage of each fleeting hour,
    As fragments of their reign empower.
    So let us ponder, as we trod,
    The fate of gods who've met their sod.
    For in their fall, we too may see
    The fleeting nature of our decree.

    in nature, when a whale dies, and its carcass finally hits the seafloor, it becomes a whalefall, a teeming ecosystem full of new life that could only be brought about by the whale's death. a miracle of nature, so to speak. given this, when a god falls for the last time, never to rise again, its corpse must surely still leave behind something miraculous and beautiful, a true divine blessing, wonderous perhaps even beyond our imaginings, but only so long as we leave it to rest.

    the misty grave of the forgotten,

    memorys and empathy rotten,
    watch as they fall and fold.
    As the moon covers the night with slivery irdescene, countless giants fall,
    Their efforts not enough,
    thier skeletons infected with death, unlike how they used to stand tall;
    I feel like ive lost touch,
    with the sands i stand upon,
    i feel like im not there,
    feelings and emotions are simply gone.
    I wish i could go back,
    to loves touch of warmth,
    I feel like the artic snow,
    i feel frozen over,
    i cannot bring myself to go and put another foot forward.

    Amidst the swirling mists and the eternal chill of the deserted shore, Mara stood alone, her red cloak a stark contrast against the monochromic landscape. Before her lay the gargantuan skull of a creature long forgotten by time, its bones bleached and brittle, a silent sentinel of the sands. The air was heavy with the scent of salt and decay, a reminder of the impermanence of all things, even the titans of old. This was a place of endings, where the past whispered through the fog, carrying tales of fallen empires and vanquished leviathans.
    As Mara approached the colossal skull, her footsteps soft on the wet sand, she felt the weight of history pressing upon her. Each bone was a chapter of a story too vast to comprehend, each hollow eye socket a gaze into the abyss of time. She reached out, her fingers tracing the lines of the ancient skull, feeling the echoes of the beast's last roar as it succumbed to the inevitable embrace of death. This was not just a graveyard of bones; it was a crucible of life's fleeting triumphs and inevitable defeats, a testament to the courage to live even in the face of oblivion. With a final glance at the skeletal behemoth, Mara turned back, her spirit renewed by the solemn majesty of the remnants. She walked away, the red of her cloak fading into the mist, a fleeting yet vibrant spark in the vast, unyielding grey.

    Empty your chords and empty the skies,
    Empty this world birthed anew from your eyes.
    Empty the reason that beckons the treason.
    Empty the words that split forth the rise.
    All of this worthy, I am whole, full of glory,
    No tainted smith can poison this song,

    I am that
    which grips the heart in fright,
    hearkens night,
    and silences the light.

    🥰🥰I love the voice, very hypnotic. I love the atmosphere, so soft, delicate, far away. The harmonic department is wonderful, with bittersweet notes that also recall a heroic distant time, immensity and total immersion, highly hypnotic, my heartfelt compliments. Bravissimi.🤙

    I think "dead" stands for dead in this sense. Imagine all the gods of ancient civilizations that met their end by unknown and unspeakable horrors. What could be destructive and twisted enough, that could kill an entity that is eternal and all-powerful? And if this "thing" is capable of killing Gods, then what hope is there for the rest of us?

    That's so satisfying how the numpad shortcuts put you at round intervals (20 min, 40 min, etc)
