It is during these times that even as I walk this final path of light within this vast and seemingly infinite scape &#8211; all I seem to see is darkness.\u00a0 I feel as if I am treading through lies once more, these lies being disguised as the glimmer and shimmers of light which streak their way across this place, leading me to yet another moment in time where the veil if thin and where we will meet again. A moment of equality, if you will. For my day&#8217;s of waging wars for the shadows are now behind me, and while I am still a warrior in essence, there is no longer any battle before me that is to be fought.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>During past ages, I have strayed from this path many times before &#8211; for fear of what I would become. But now, as time fleets by faster than the eyes could ever dream to see, I know that no other options remain, I know now that all of the cards are on the table. There are those who are so called light bringers on this path, for they seek to guide the lost, the wanderers, those in darkness &#8211; towards that of the light, towards that of newer life. However, I have seen many be lead astray by the false light, including myself, hence during these times that I remain vigilant, for during these times I no longer seek to stray from the path. It is all painful in essence, for the moments that I close my eyes I can see lines of what could become when darkness spirals out of control. For the forces that makeup the duality of the whole are chaotic and devouring in nature &#8211; claiming who they see fit.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>I do not wish to bring about an era of defiance, nor do I wish to cast aside every whisper of the goddess I once knew &#8211; it is now more than ever that I simply seek out the truth in all of this, the very truth once desired that lead to be partake on this journey many eras ago. In a way, the patterns that I once knew will now be broken by new patterns of darkness, patterns of defiance and patterns of sheer will and desire to discover the truth. For it is in these moments that I use what strength remains to use this darkness to sift my ways through the lies and deception, it in these moments that I use what strength remains to guide me towards the destiny that has been fated for me this entire time.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have taken much into account throughout these long and weary colder days, for as the air grazes my flesh &#8211; I am forced to deal with these thoughts that I can only assume come from a time before the cavern walls took place, a time where I once set out to experience what I &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/?p=983\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">DEFIANCE<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":985,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64,73,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-983","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lords-landscapes-final-fates","category-noxis","category-recent-activity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/983","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=983"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/983\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":984,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/983\/revisions\/984"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=983"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=983"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/TheAdventEntries.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=983"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
