No post in over 24 hours. Apocalyptic.

wolven7Tom Waits - [Big Joe and Phantom 309]--- Nothing to say, really. Things are going well. People have been over, and we have enjoyed their company. It has been good.
Been thinking about pathways, doors, and the means by which to open the above, today. Still working on a particular combination of Runes and the major arcana. It's an intricate, delicate thing, and should probably be thrown to the ground to see what lands where.
Bought a new belt today. The old one was falling apart, at the seams, in a literal manner.
There will be 40 Horsepersons of the Apocalypse. I was thinking about it, after a random comment, and let's say that the world is heading for some major shift, soon. Some "Revelation" (apocalypse means that). We need an updated regiment of the factors of our lives that kill, and ratify, and not simply the old standards. They are, of course, included, to show the new boys how we kick it "Old School."
Ego Likeness - [Above the Soil (Isabel's Version)]--- However, that being said, we need, I think, four new members to the team. So here's my starting line-up:
War
Famine
Pestilence
Death
Liminality
Isomorphism
Ennui
Transcendence
Their reasons are their titles and functions, they are the driving forces of revelation and change. Each title-holder will get a squad of four, equaling five per function, for eight functions, giving us 40.
If you were to design a new Horseperson of the Apocalypse, what would it be, and why?
I'm out, for now.
{1.56am Jack Off Jill, Morphic Field - [Covet (750 Degrees Mix)]--- Look what I made (and by made, i mean typed some words)!

Oh, and it's YOUR fault I was thinking about the doors, paths and Runes, you know? Listening to "Water..." and looking at the inside covers and casings...
Not that it's a problem, mind...

Didn't Dante have a special hell for those that couldn't decided?
And I thought Pestilence was gone... can't remember what it was they said happened to him, but I thought the new dirty guy took his place.

Date: 2006-03-17 04:23 pm (UTC)I nominate Chaos. Capital-C Chaos. Not necessarily as a manifestation of widespread higgledy-piggledy, but the infinite unordered isness from which all comes and to which all will go. Startling infinity in the Lovecraftian sense. Incomprehensible.
On that note, nice to see Nyarlathotep get a bit of recognition; he always was my favorite Outer God.

Date: 2006-03-17 05:48 pm (UTC)and one of my fav depictions of Chaos was from one of those random fantasy novels I picked up one time... actually I think it was a trillogy called something like "Wizard of the Grove"
Ooh lemme see if I can find it!
woot!

And Chaos is there, kind of interwoven. I don't know how well it would work made all specified.
And that's exactly what I thought, when I decided to make the "Ia R'lyeh" response.
