Old Gods

Man has only truly inhabited the Earth for less than ten thousand years. Before then he never ventured far after dark and everything the world held held for him left wonder and awe imĀ­printed upon his meager brain. Years past and man soon forgot the untamed world around him and attempted to saddle it for his own needs.

That is why we are so vulnerable today.

We have forgotten the wildness that kept us within the caves and huts. Forgotten the mysticism that controlled events. ForgotĀ­ten the Divine intervention that shaped our lives and the world around us.

This, as I've said, leaves us vulnerable. Vulnerable to the land we think we control. Vulnerable for the day the old gods come back.
