The Second Tablet

The Book of Prophesies and Visions

Chapter 1

I am Vovfen, he who helped settle Byirkenhōl. After having traveled such long time among the people of Ahzheil, I returned unto my homeland of Aiyanthah. And upon my return, I went up in Sydeir with my father, for I had long desired to walk with him again. 
Now, upon going up in Sydeir, we received a vision which I shall record hereafter, but suffice it to say that we knew of asurity that at some future day Aiyanthah should be destroyed and all the inhabitants either flee or perish by the sword. And we also know that many of our sacred records would be destroyed by the hands of wicked men. Therefore, I set about making this abridgment, for I have grown old and I cannot write all the things of my people. 
Nevertheless, I make an abridgement of those records which Aiylōhyme has deemed of great impact. Therefore, I make an abridgement of those records. And those records are the Book of Prophecies and Visions, which is the record of many of the great prophecies, writings, and revelations from before the time that Hennen left Scythia. 
Too, I have recorded and abridged the Little Book of Seers, which is companion to The Larger Book of Seers, which itself the Aiy have designed to come forward at this future day when all things should be restored. Therefore, I abridge the Little Book of Seers, which is an account of the doings of Aiyzaiyah the seer who was with us, for he was a great seer and performed many marvelous works by his hands. 
And I have also abridged the Book of the Dead which is a record of our doings and the doings of our Vyaneir among those who were less faithful, for there is work that is done on both sides, for those who become not Vyaneir and this is recorded in the Book of the Dead. 
Lastly, I have abridged the Book of Promises and Covenants, which book shall not be destroyed, but the Aiy have caused me to abridge it anyway for the purpose of making our posterity aware of the many covenants and righteous blessings which had been promised unto their fathers and their mothers. Nevertheless, I shall begin my account of the vision I received with my father.

Chapter 2

We found ourselves in a dark and lonely place with nothing to be seen. We saw neither Dregr nor Wight; therefore, we knew we were taken by Thūnoraz. And it was that as we wandered in this place, we came upon a roaring fountain of water and, being thus instructed, we cupped our hands and partook of the water, and as we did, the darkness vanished, becoming a bustling land full of spirits of all kinds. For there were Dwarves and Elves and Nifles and all good spirits. 
Now among them was a man dressed in a yellow robe, and he came to us saying: I am Szvemaz, your father, and you shall know me by the sign which I give. 
And we received the sign; therefore, we knew it to be Szvemaz. And our grandfather spoke, saying: Come, and I shall show you the destiny of our seed from my time even until Thūnoraz shall again walk upon the earth. 
And we followed, and eternity stretched before our eyes, and we saw all times and seasons of the earth and beheld all things. Now, Szvemaz led us into a certain corridor and we beheld the coming up of Szvemaz from the land of Harethal unto the Land of Nyōrd. And Szvemaz said: I was commissioned by my father, who was a seer, to come unto this place, for he told me of a coming destruction which would befall Harethal. 
And we beheld a mighty mountain of stone that it rose up from the ground, and atop it stood a man mighty and tall, and Svemaz said: Behold the man Giglames, who was the greatest upon the earth. And he it was who caused the tower to be built that the whole earth might see his wealth and power. 
And we beheld a great storm that shook the earth. Svemaz spoke: It was that the Aiyseir could not let this wickedness go uncontested. Therefore, the Aiylōhyme sent a mighty storm that shook the earth. But before that day, Vofdenaz came unto my father and told him of the things which must shortly come to pass. And this he declared unto all the righteous in the land. And it was that the seed of my father fled by the hand of the Aiylōhyme into far distant lands that their spirits might not be shaken and that righteousness might be preserved. 
And we beheld many of the children of Svemaz, Nōh's son, that they fled unto all the corners of the earth. And we beheld Svemaz that he took his family and came up to dwell in the land of Nyōrd, which was a land of Yōtons and many wicked men of renown. And we saw that Svemaz feared this but did not cower, and went unto the Nyōrds and caused many great and marvelous works to be had among them, insomuch that the entirety of the land was converted unto Aiylōhyme. And such a thing had never before happened in the land of Nyōrd, for it was ruled by Lōk and Sert. And we saw the children of Svemaz and all those in the land build many great and mighty structures unto the Aiylōhyme, and righteousness was had among all the land. 
And we beheld a network of ships and steeds, that these networks crossed the entirety of the earth, and communication and trade was established with Harethal, which had converted unto Aiy. And trade with the children of Yared and his family, and the whole earth became open and somewhat righteous. 
But speedily there arose a great cloud of wickedness, for Hrōdi and Sert would not stay, and Yōrmongond consumed his tail, and all was chaos and war. And nation gathered against nation and people against people, insomuch that the entire earth was consumed with war and bloodshed. 
And Svemaz said: So, it was that after the righteous descendants of Nōh had scattered across the earth and righteousness was established, Lōk began again to establish his combinations, and there arose systems of wealth that caused many to become rich and many more to become exceedingly poor. And Harethal became the source of all trade across the earth, insomuch that many taxes were levied and nearly all commerce was ordained by the king of Harethal to come through Harethal. And those that denied for their money's sake were swiftly conquered by Harethal. And there was a great deal of idleness across the land, and many fell away from the Aiyseir and began worshiping gods of gold and ivory. 
And Svemaz said: So it was that in a short time, nearly the entirety of the earth forsook the Way and set their face to idols. And Harethal was the center, and Feiginept the queen. And the Nyōrds began again to take up the Lōkic combinations in earnest once again, for they desired to be rulers and kings. But Harethal would not, and they sought to go to war against the Nyōrds. It was here that Elōhizar, that great seer, came up from Feiginept unto the land of the Nyōrds. And he brought with him records. And many there were that sought to flee from Feiginept. Now, he had known about my people and desired to live among them, but when he arrived, he found it was worse than Feiginept, and he set about the work of collecting souls for the Aiylōhyme, for he want not for my seed to dwindle. And there came with him six hundred and seventy-two of my seed, and they fled from the wickedness and fled into the land south, and there they were protected and lived as a joyous people for a season. 
Now, when the many wars and contentions had ceased, we beheld that the seed of Svemaz had become rulers and kings upon the earth, and they ruled many lands and nations, and they dwelt with the descendants of Yared that had become a wild and ferocious people, and they dwelt with the descendants of Arphaxad who had become wealthy in trade. Now, the people of Elōhizar hid in the mountains and dwelt in the place where Nōh had first landed. And they had built a temple and had become a delightsome people walking in the Ways of Aiylōhyme. 
And Svemaz spoke again, saying: This is the people who carried the gospel of the Son unto many nations, for they went unto all the earth carrying the gospel of peace. And we saw them go unto Harethal and unto Sinim and unto India and unto the Children of Yared and to the isles of the sea. And they were joined with many righteous nations, and all went out spreading the Way. And when they had done this, there was a peace that settled upon many portions of the earth. Nevertheless, for much wickedness. And so it was that when this peace settled upon much of the earth, many began to ascend to the Aiy and become Vyaneir according to our language. And there was much rejoicing and jubilation over the face of the earth at this time. 
Nevertheless, as before, the work of the Aiylōhyme became frustrated, for men began to search out the wicked things. The children of Yared began to take up the oaths, as did the children of Svemaz and Avrahyme, and the combinations of Lōk spread with great haste throughout the earth. And this routine seems to be a mystery, for at once the entire world took up the oaths of old, yet in isolation as if some great power had taken hold of them. 
Now, we saw much wickedness throughout the earth because of this. And Svemaz spoke, saying: It was that wars were again poured out upon the earth, for the children of Yared utterly destroyed themselves, and the children of Arphaxad became despots, and my children were vagabonds and great warriors. But behold, my children, the mighty works of the Aiylōhyme. 
And we beheld the children of Ithziel that the corruption had found them also. But we beheld a seer that he came forward from the line of Yahkob, and he set about to do a marvelous work and a wonder. And this seer we know as Aiysaiyah the prophet, who visited us. And he brought with him much restoration, and because of him, the righteous began to be separated from the wicked, and through his works, were there many prophets about to spring forward. 
And we beheld Yōhannaz, our father, that he went to the land of Germania. And we beheld Zvekariūs that he went unto Sinim and Gavariel, that he went unto the north. And others went to the east and others to the west until the truth of Thūnoraz was spread out again throughout all the earth. Now, when this, the work of the Aiylōhyme began in earnest, for many people came from these many lines, insomuch that the righteous were found throughout the earth. 
And Svemaz said: This time, you know well about, for you cherish the writings of Yōhannaz, your father. But it is that a singular event set the seeds for the final restoration upon the earth, insomuch that when the day comes that all shall forsake the gospel and it shall be as the days before the deluge, when wickedness shall prevail in the earth and nearly all will have forgotten their Aiy, that when nations that came forward because of the great scattering shall once again unite and seers shall be had among them all and they shall bring forward the fulness of the restoration, and this shall not be accomplished by a single individual, but many, all they who are the children of Yōhannaz and Lehaiy and Zvekariūs and Yethremythaz and Aiysaiyah and all they who were caused to be scattered, they again shall see and know of their fathers and that lineage, that they come from righteous stock. 
And now, when we beheld all of this, we saw a great blackness covering the face of the earth. And Svemaz said: Nevertheless, before that great day of finality, there first must be a day of sorrow, for it is that you have seen that the tides of wickedness and righteousness ebb and flow and are in constant struggle one with the other. And a day shall come in which the agents of Sert shall reign supreme, and all that was righteous shall be taken from off the earth. 
And we beheld the seed of Svemaz that they became a wicked and loathsome people. And they took the plain and precious things and corrupted them and caused war, hatred, and envy to pervade in Germania. And it was that they sought to slay the children of Hennen who would not that their doctrine be corrupted. Thus, the children of Hennen fled unto Iberia and unto the isles of Brittania, and there they stayed until they were consumed by the tribes of hatred. Now, the prophecies regarding the consumption of my people were well known. Therefore, we did not weep, but we were sober in the face of it. 
And Svemaz said: Thus, shall the seed of your posterity be consumed in wickedness. Yet, if they remain faithful unto the end, Aylōhyme shall cause a seer to spring forth form your lineage, and he shall be the cause and the crux of much restoration among your seed, and Aiylōhyme shall give him the keys to the knowledge of his past, and he shall speak unto you as I do now speak with you. And thus, when this restoration shall begin, then shall the children of Hennen return again unto ways of peace, then will the children of Yōhannaz and Elōhizar and Svemaz return unto a remembrance of their fathers. And when this day occurs, none shall be able to stay them on the face of the land. For they shall take the fulness unto many nations, kindreds, tongues, and people. 
And we saw the seer of whom was spoken that he forsook the ways of wickedness and cleaved unto the ways of his fathers, and in him a great restoration began to spring forth that all the children of Yōhannaz began again to remember their righteous fathers. And we beheld a marvelous work as the prophecies which said that the children of Ithziel would be united again were fulfilled, for Ēfarhyme was with Messanaz, and Yahūdah with Yūzefaz*,* and Azkūre with Gūd, and all were united again. And the Gospel went forth unto all the earth, and all peoples began again to seek their fathers, even until all were united with the Great Aiylōhyme once more. And this was our vision, and we know the truth of it.

Chapter 3

The prophecies and visions of Yozefūs the Seer who lived around 200 BC as abridged by Vovfen; comprising chapters 3-7.

Now, there was a certain Yōzefos who was a righteous seer among our people, and he lived nearly two hundred years before our father Hennen. And now, it was he who first began writing the Book of Prophesies and Visions. Many of his teachings are written herein and shall make up much of this abridgement. 
Now, this Yōzefos was foremost among the children of Yōhannaz, having been born of direct lineage from him. And he wrote, saying: It is good that Yōhannaz left Aiyesholames, for we know of a surety that it was destroyed by that Harethal who was the whore of the earth. Yet, so it shall be, for I have seen that in the days of our children, the wickedness of Aiyesholames shall again be what it was when father Yōhannaz left, for they shall indulge in much lavish living and idolatry. And I know and have seen that there shall be born among them a certain prophet who should prepare the way before the coming of all righteousness. And this prophet shall be like unto Yōhannaz and shall be cast out from among his own. Insomuch that he shall be forced to rear his seed in the wilderness, and they shall be hated among all people. Nevertheless, this prophet shall prepare the way for Pūnkes who should come. 
This prophet shall go forward and receive in Ohrther Pūnkes in a stream. And this shall be the manner of his Ohrther, the prophet shall take him by the hand and shall say: Having been given authority of Aiylōhyme, I receive in Ohrther you in the name of the All-Father, the All-Mother, and the All-Spirit. Aiy! 
And he shall fell him into the water entirely so that the water consumes him. Now, is this not a type? I see that it is, for in times past we have forsaken this practice because we believed to be better than it. This Ohrther was for the unrighteous, which certainly cannot include us. Therefore, we forsook this teaching. Nevertheless, my kinsmen, let us see to it that we return to this practice, for if the very Pūnkes who should come who shall be perfect exceeding perfection, if he should even be received in Ohrther, should we not seek to do the same? 
Now, I have seen also that when Pūnkes shall be received in Ohrther, lighting shall descend upon him, yet, not to his hurt, and he shall be consumed with power from the Aiylōhyme. And in this very act, he shall then become one with Heimalaz the Great Spirit. And when this, they shall never be separated so long as they both are righteous. 
Now, is this also not a thing we should seek? For our father, Yōhannaz, spoke much about the power of the spirit that it must descend upon us all lest we be left to forsaken paths. Now, I ask, have many of you received Vyros of which our fathers spoke? I do not believe so, for you have forsaken Orhther, believing it as done by the wicked only, so you cannot have received Vyros. I exhort you, my kinsmen, to seek Ohrther and Vyros. And when you do this, it shall be as it will be in Pūnkes, you will be joined up with and sealed to Heimalaz, that Great Spirit. 
Now, rejoice, my kinsmen, for lo, you have forsaken this command; nevertheless, the very mission of Pūnkes shall be to remove our debts with Yōrmongond so that he consumes not his tail for your sakes that we all will return unto them and become Aiy again. 
And now, my kinsmen, you know these things I teach to be true, for did Yōhannaz not teach concerning Ohrther? He did. When he came up from Aiyesholames, he found a people who walked in all ways in Sydeir save for that they did not practice Ohrther, for they found the practice to be too similar to the children of Ithziel to the south. Therefore, they had forsaken Ohrther entirely, and now, I see that you have similar thoughts, for you view the people to the south that they are wicked but continue with the practice of Ohrther, for this reason and your own idleness, you have forsaken the practice. Now, when Yōhannaz had seen that this righteous people had forsaken Ohrther, he went to work repairing that doctrine which had been lost due to pride, and he, with much success, brought the people unto a remembrance of that doctrine which they had lost. 
Now, as I have said, it is the same with you, for you have forsaken this practice, and here I come before you and must correct it. You know it in your hearts to be a correct practice, yet you forsake it for your pride. Now, I must tell you to repent, for the day comes in which Pūnkes shall come to this land wrapped in his glory, and when this day comes, should he find a people who forsake his teachings? I hope not. Therefore, my kinsmen, you must repent, for I testify that in his youth he shall wander up to these parts and he shall open up the records we have kept and will read the accounts which he himself commanded we should write. And when this, I would that he will find a righteous people as our fathers before us, for truly in our records are the testimonies of Yōhannaz and Ahzheil and among others, therefore he will judge us based off what is written. For at that time, he will have access to many records from many people, insomuch that we should be a righteous and prosperous people that when he comes as a lad, we may bring him in and seek counsel from him that he may be comfortable in this our little home. And now I make an end concerning this matter. Aiy.

Chapter 4

Now, this Yōzefos also wrote concerning his seed, and here are his words: I am Yōzefos the seer, descendant of Yōhannaz the seer, and I now recorded this vision which I had concerning my posterity. For it shall come to pass that in nearly two hundred years the ripeness of the wicked of this place shall reach its fulness, and when that day comes, there shall be a righteous seer who should come forth from my seed. And this is the wickedness that shall greet him. 
Many of my children and the remainder of this people will have forsaken entirely their first love and will have turned Pūnkes and Vōdezaza into gods of death and war. And they will create many idols and images depicting their gods in the act of mighty war. And this they will do to justify the getting of many riches, and that they may conquer lands afar off. The entire world shall know the name of Scythia and will fear it, and this that my kinsmen should be able to gain whatever thing they desire. And in this, they will have taken up the combinations of Lōk. And I see that there will be many rulers set above them in these days, and these rulers will claim a certain religious authority, and they will rule and reign over this people with fear and terror. And they will play with the desires of this people, insomuch that they will drive them wherever they desire. And they will go unto nations and cause harm and carry away their women and children into slavery, and they shall brand them with the sigil of victory. And in this way, this people will become an evil and a vile people. 
Now read my words, for I prophesy against you, my seed. In the name of Pūnkes, I send a righteous line down through my seed, for such is my faith. I will not have a wicked people destroy the righteous of my seed. Therefore, I name this righteous seer whom I have seen as ruler; he is my heir. And when he comes, he will draw in the righteous among this people and will set his face against the wicked. He will tear down their altars and cover their statues. He will set fire to a soaking altar like Beyaz before him, and in this way he will prophecy against the wickedness of this people. 
And when he has done this, he will pay the ultimate sacrifice, for in his youth he will die and they will tote his carcass through the city as a trophy that they have finally slain the holy prophet of Aiy, but fear, oh you wicked people, for on the third day, he will awake, and he will have the strength of the mountains and he will take from you your records and your knowledge and he will lead his people unto righteous pastures. And in this, you will see a similitude of the sacrifice of Pūnkes, for Pūnkes will also die and his body displayed upon a tree that all might see the death of the Son of Man. But he will rise the third day unto glorious burnings, great Elohimus! 
And all will know that he is Aiy, the son of the living Aiylōhyme. So too will the remainder of my seed know that this ruler is the servant of the Son of Man, for in that day he will take unto him all the holy records and the righteous sect of the people and will flee, and where he goes, the wicked cannot touch him, and he will greet the Son of Man when he comes in his glory and he and his people will be taken up and live forever while the remainder of this people will wallow away in darkness until those nations you opposed will oppose you. And they will become frustrated with your arrows and will utterly destroy you, and you will cease to be a people, destroyed in your wickedness. And I proclaim this is justice of the Almighty All, for they will put up with you no longer, and the blood of the righteous will cry up from the dust against you, and you will be destroyed. 
Nevertheless, I see the righteous among my seed that they will prosper on for many years, and they shall be a good and delightful people, quick to answer the call of their Aiy.

Chapter 5

And now I, Yōzefos speak about the final days before the end, when the earth shall be as it was before the flood, for that day will show a wickedness unlike any before it, for Sert will rage in many hearts, and he shall lead them by cords and the entire earth will be laid waste with wars and famine and pestilence. And in that day, my seed will have been nearly extinguished. For money and pride, there shall come darkness fall over my people, and they will become as the Scythians, makers and lovers of war. And again they will turn their Aiy into gods of war and hatred, and their gods will be like unto themselves and in their names will they fashion swords and axes and spears and shall cause the shields of their enemies to shake, and the entire world will be in darkness and war, hatred and death. 
And I see that there will be a righteous sect among my people that they shall again flee as their father did before, and they will go unto the isle and the edge near the sea and will carry with them the records of their fathers, but not all, for the wicked among my seed and the gentiles will combine to forge a combination of evil and will inhabit the old places and will destroy the books of their fathers in their wickedness, and much will be lost. And in that day, Aiylōhyme shall destroy them and with them the old lands, and will be consumed like in the days of the deluge. And that righteous sect shall linger but dwindle until all truth shall have been lost from among them. 
Yet, they shall set the final seer to watch over their records and in this way no man will find the remaining records until the final day before judgement, for before the final and dreadful day called Destruction or Resurrection, the Aiylōhyme will again raise up a righteous branch from among my seed and they will again restore my seed unto righteousness. And in that day, they will take up the records of their fathers and will translate them into diverse tongues and they will begin a final restoration and many of the old records will be had among them again, and as their fathers were preserved from the judgment of the wicked so will they, for the shall live on until the Son of Man shall again return to the earth. 
And now, my kinsmen, when this day shall come there shall be many great things upon the earth; you have heard it said that in the final days the sun shall be consumed by the wolf of vengeance and that Sert and his armies of Mūsple will be released for a time to do war with the children of the Aiyseir. I now expand this doctrine. For as I was fasting and praying in the hills, Tyrraz came unto me and said: Son of men, why do you fast and pray in the hills? For what purpose do you do this? 
And I spake unto him, saying: Mighty first father, I know that the Aiylōhyme have sent you to answer my prayer. Will you make it known unto me concerning the end of days when the sun will be consumed and Sert will be loosed for a time to make war with the children of the Aiyseir? 
And Tyrraz replied: I will make this thing known unto you, my son. And I was then carried away in a vision. 
I saw before me a great field white and golden like the field before the harvest. And I saw many types of grains that they were growing together. Rye and Barley, Oats and Straw. Tyrraz came to my side and said: What you see before you is the great representation of the final harvest. For in the final days, all nations, tribes, and people will be interspersed among each other. And there came a great storm from the north and began to blow with mighty winds, there came also a hail, and all the types of grains began to flee from the storm in fear at its gales. 
And Tyrraz said: Do you understand the interpretation of this? 
I said: I do not. 
Tyrraz: these are the mighty winds that the Aiylōhyme will send to test their children, for any who lack faith to withstand this cannot withstand what is to come. 
I beheld that the winds were severe and ripped many of the stocks from their places, and they fell to the ground. And many more tried to flee, but in doing so were whipped about by the tempest. And when the tempest had ceased, I saw that nearly all of the field had been uprooted. For this, many of the grasses were angry and bitter with the Aiylōhyme and took to deep councils against them. And those few grains that had withstood beheld the deep council and what they sought to do, for the grasses in rebellion began to dig through the soil and the rhizome seeking the deep places. 
So it was that there came a dregr among them, and the dregr took pity on the grasses in their anger and devised with them a plan. The rebellious grasses must set up a hierarchy and cause that murder be instigated, for the early threshing brought much power. If they would do this, that dregr would bestow a power and give knowledge to all the rebellious grains. 
And when I had seen this, I was carried away unto a high mountain, a wicked mountain which was the lowest valley. And Tyrraz said unto me: Son of men, look to the east. As I did, I beheld a blazing sun that it caused much heat and desolation upon the earth, but the righteous feared it not, and it sent them life. I then beheld a group of men that they carried with them the stamps and the brands of wickedness. 
Tyrraz said: son of men, behold the opening of the pit! And I saw Hrōdi's body that had become a dark and fiery place, and in it was trapped the many Mūsple and Dregr. And there were also wicked elves and goblins, and orcs of all kinds. Lo, I saw that the leader of the group of men who had been named Mesves set his face to the mountainous pit, and Hrōdi gave him power, and he called forth the many trapped spirits in the pit. 
First came Sert, that mighty enemy, and with him his Mūsple. And came the elves, dark and loathsome, goblins and dregr came out, and the dragons fled. All these were loosed upon the earth and they ruled with fear and terror. And I saw too that that same wicked man returned into the pit, into the deepest parts, and he found there Helel, the daughter of Lōk, and her bands were broken and she became a queen. And too he found Lōk and all his wicked seed that had been imprisoned. They, too, were set free. And Lōk ruled over a portion of the earth, and Sert a portion, and Hrōdi a portion, and all their factions with them, insomuch that the entire earth was ruled by these wicked forces. 
And Tyrraz said to me: Do you understand this? 
And I said: Aiy. I do. After the mighty test of the storm, there will come a man who is given power to set free all the incarcerated spirits trapped in Mūspleheim. 
Tyrraz said: As of now, there are only a few wicked spirits to roam the earth. Hrōdi leads them, and they believe they are powerful. But the day will come when all who have been trapped by the righteous in Mūsple will be set free to wreak havoc upon the earth. And when this day comes, there must needs arrive a faction of righteous, for did you not see that the sun began to blaze, giving life to the righteous? 
I: I did. 
Tyrraz: Those righteous are they who withstood the winds and the gales and have sought refuge among the winds. And with that faith, the winds will carve around them and be a protection for them. Nevertheless, the sun will still blaze, and the wicked will despise it. And there will be many who say, let us go up that we might snuff out that sun that we may rest. And the wicked will conspire against the Aiyseir and set their face against the sun. And Helel will call forth the great wolf, and Sert will give it power, and all will conspire to consume the sun. 
And I beheld that from the west came the Yōtons, for they had hid, and the Dwarves that had hid came forth also. And the Dwarves, being of the Aiyseir, went to subdue the wicked spirits and the Yōtons that had hid. And Sert came up in his rage and called up a beast from the sea in the likeness of Yōrmongond. And this serpent came forth and began to consume the wicked and the penitent and all in its path. And when this, I saw a messenger from the sky alight upon the earth, and in his hand he held a book and a scroll. 
And Tyrraz said: Do you know the meaning of all this? And I said: Aiy! The dwarves and the giants who have hid shall feel the trembling's and the quakes of the earth, and they will war against each other. And the serpent that will come up will be the embodiment of justice, which consumes all without care, for justice respects no man. 
And now, I beheld the deep parts of the earth that she hid many things, both known and unknown. And in all her pains, she gave them up, and the whole world marveled at the sight of this. I beheld the righteous go forward, all prophets and seers, and they said unto the secret things of the earth: Reveal yourselves. And they made known all their secrets, and at that time the oaths of Lōk and Hrōdi and Sert were revealed and their spirits were made known unto all the earth. 
Now the more part of the earth marveled at the oath which had been hid and desired after it. Yet the lesser part mourned because of it and fell to the earth because of their wickedness. Now, after all these great signs and wonders, the wolf was given power and he was set loose to consume the sun and the sun was darkened and the only light was the fires which had been caused for the wars. 
Therefore, it was that when I had seen this, Tyrraz said to me: The day will come when all this you see shall happen, and when that day comes, wickedness will prevail across the entirety of the earth, but fear not, for all of this must come to pass, and as it must come to pass, it is in the will of the Aiylōhyme and therefore in their control. Hrōdi and Sert shall be loosed upon the earth for a season, but so will all righteousness be there to stand as a beacon. Behold, son of men. 
And I looked and beheld that Aiyseir that had alighted upon the earth carrying the book and the scroll. And I saw that he unraveled the scroll, and on it was written all the names of the fathers of the righteous. And I beheld that my name was written upon the scroll and all my fathers before me, even until the time of Svemaz. 
And Tyrraz said: Know you the meaning of this? 
And I said: I do not. For I have never seen such a thing. 
Tyrraz: These are the names that have been recorded in the Book of Life which is the book you see this Aisyeir carrying, and the scroll is the list of deeds and promises yet to be fulfilled with those whose name is written in the Book of Life, therefore, those souls cannot rest until the day the Aiylōhyme fulfill all the promises made unto them. 
And I beheld that there came a man who beheld that Aiyseir that had alighted upon the earth, and he held the scroll and read the names of all his fathers. And there came another like unto him, and power was given him to read all the names of his fathers. And another, even until all the names of the fathers had been read, which were upon the scroll. 
And I also beheld that the Aiyseir spoke unto all those who were given power to read the scroll, and the Aiyseir said: These are they who have made covenants and have received promises from the Aiy and the Aiyseir. These are they who cannot rest until all the work which they have covenanted to fulfill is completed. Therefore, all you who may read this, I give you power to bring these souls to rest. 
And it was that all they who read from the scroll were sent back into the earth, and they carried the names of their fathers within their heart. And I beheld that they went about the work which their fathers instructed them to do. 
And Tyrraz said: Know you the meaning of all these things? 
And I said: I do, Aiyseir. These are the children of the righteous, which righteous had prior received many great and marvelous promises by the mouth of Thūnoraz Aiyseir. And these promises cannot be fulfilled unless there be righteous upon the earth in the final days. For in those final days, there will be many wicked and exceedingly few who may have the communion with their fathers as I now talk to you. Therefore, the Aiy will prepare those few souls who will listen, and nearly all shall come from the line of some great prophet. And in this way, the Aiylōhyme shall be able to fulfill all the promises which were made unto us, their fathers. 
Tyrraz said: That is true. Now, son of men, take what you have learned and write it in a book. For the day comes when this vision shall be of much use to the children of men. 
And it came to pass that I Yōzefos was thrust from my Sydeir, having witnessed many great and marvelous things and having received a commandment to write all that I had seen within a book. And thus, I write this book and many more things have I seen. And I write this book that it may be passed down through my line and all may write the many great and marvelous things that the Aiylōhyme may show them.

Chapter 6

And too, I came up in Sydeir one day, and that day was dark and dismal, and I knew that the snows would soon be coming. And the harvest and the hunt had been low; therefore, I knew that this coming winter would be difficult. And desiring to know what I should do to aid my people in this trial, I came up in Sydeir that I might commune with the Aiylōhyme. 
And when I had come up, I beheld a field white and ready to harvest. And I beheld a mighty steed that was made all from steel. And Tyrraz again came to me and spoke unto me, saying: What is it you desire, Yōzefos? 
And I said: I desire to know how I may help my people as this time of famine arrives. 
And Tyrraz pointed to the steed and said: Look and behold, son of men, and see whatsoever the Aiylōhyme shall show you. 
And I beheld the steed that it walked through the field crushing all underfoot, and none withstood its effort. And I beheld that it walked the entire length of the field, and when it had, it had crushed all underfoot, insomuch that the entire field had been crushed. And I asked: What is the meaning of this? 
And Tyrraz said: A day will come when there comes a famine in the land, not of food, but of knowledge. And it shall be that in that day, men shall be as this steed and shall crush all goodness underfoot. We give you this famine that you may know and may ask that when the time comes that you will not put your posterity through what many others shall go through. 
And I beheld the steed that it was many nations all banded together to crush the knowledge of the Aiy. And they believed they had successfully done this, and all was laid waste before it. And I beheld that the steed ruled and reigned over the earth for several cycles according to the time of the Eagle. And I wept for the loss of such knowledge and that there would be such rule over the land. 
And Tyrraz said: Weep not, child, for though the steed shall crush underfoot, there will come an end to the winter. And I beheld that arose from the trodden earth a single seed, and it bloomed and became a plant. And I also beheld the steed made of steel that it desired to crush the plant underfoot as it had done to many others before it. Yet this plant wilted and spread its seeds prior to ripening, and those seeds spread across the field. And I also saw that those seeds grew with great haste and also spread their seeds. 
And Tyrraz said: Have faith in the Aiylōhyme and Thūnoraz who is to come, for a great and marvelous work is about to come forth among their children. And so shall it be for you, for lo, you shall suffer this winter in hardship, come the spring, you shall have abundance. And such is the way of the earth. 
And I beheld that the steed could not crush the many plants that had begun to grow and spread across the field, insomuch that it was defeated, and thus was the vision.

Chapter 7

Now, I Vovfen continue with the visions which Yōzefos saw while he was traveled down into the southern parts, for it came to pass that nearly two hundred years before the Messiah came, there came a prophet to the south, and his name was Freisian. Now this Freisian came from near to the land of Rōmwas, and he had been a slave brought up from near the lands of Yahūdah. And he had been captured and sold to the Rōmwasi for much money. And it was that in the night the Aiy came unto him and told him to flee into the mountains and that the guards would catch him not. And so it was that Fresian obeyed and fled into the mountains in the peninsula. And as he did, he came across Yōzefos, who had been inspired by the Aiy to go prophesy to the Rōmwasi, and their works make up some part of the Teachings of the Prophets to the Rōmwasi. Nevertheless, they went up in Sydeir upon their meeting and saw many great and marvelous things, even so many that cannot be written, but many things that can, and thus I give an account of the visions of Yōzefos and Freisian. 
Now, as I was traveling unto the lands of the peninsula, I came near unto the land of Sardinia and when I had done this, I came upon a camp and in the camp was a man, and this man wore a Urim and Thummim, not like unto the Fire Urims which we wear in the north, but like the tool worn by those in the south and in the far west lands. And knowing that this man was a prophet of the Aiy, drew near unto him, and we sat and learned of each other. And lo, he had come from the lands of Yahūdah a slave unto Rōmwas, and thus we knew that the Aiylōhyme had led us both into finding each other. 
And so it was we were called by the Aiy to preach unto the Rōmwasi together, and in this, we found great faith. Nevertheless, before we did, we went up in Sydeir together and saw many great and marvelous things which I will record for my posterity. 
So it was that we built a fire and I, wearing my Fire Urim and he wearing his Urim and Thummim, began to sing the songs of everlasting life, and as we did this, we beheld of the Aiyseir and he beckoned us to follow him. And thus, it was that we were led into a high and beautiful mountain surrounded on all sides by trees. And there was a fountain leading unto the earth that spilled forth from below the mighty tree. And we knelt down and offered oblations unto the Aiylōhyme and unfolded before us in the ripples of the stream a mighty vision. 
And we beheld the earth as it was a rod that stretched forth into the north and into the south and the east and into the west. And we beheld a man dressed in white linen, and he asked: Where do you wish to go? 
And Fresian answered him: To the north. 
And so it was that we followed this man up the northern rod, and we saw the northern lands that were attached to the end of this rod. And the man said: What you see here are the hidden things of the earth. For below what you can see there is more. 
And we beheld below the earth that there were many hidden things. Civilizations lost and many records which had been buried. And we saw the rolling back of the flood, and as the flood rolled back, the deep things rose and sat upon the earth. And we saw the land of Nyōrd that it was the place of many palaces and castles. And we saw a host prepared for war. And so it was that the host rallied before their king, who was a descendant of that Lōk, and he ruled the lands round about with strength. 
And the man said, these things have been hidden from your generations that they might not fall into apostasy. For you know that the north lands are the lands of Lōk and Freya and that all wicked men and woman have their roots from the hosts of this land. And we saw that great king lead his people to war against the other nations and brought them into subjugation. 
And we also saw that this king had with him dragons and dwarves and elves and goblins and all wicked abominations upon the earth. And he desired most of all the Yōtons who were mighty, he himself being descended from a Yōton. And he brought his host before the king of the Yōtons and prostrated himself and said: Great ruler of Yōtonheim, I am your humble servant, serve me for a time, and all this might be yours. 
And the king of the Yōtons was impressed and gathered his armies to war with the king of Nyōrd. And their armies became one. And it was that they desired to snuff out the seed of Thelli, that righteous seer of old, for there remained but one righteous in all the land. And they marched upon that one little nation, and the count of the righteous was exceedingly few. And those few turned and fled from before the host of armies. And there was one among them who's name was Dwemi. And this Dwemi was exceedingly young, and he sought the Aiy while in his youth. And there came unto him many great and marvelous visions which cannot be written. 
And he went before the host and proclaimed all unto repentance, for he could not hold back the spirit inside him. And the host mocked him and many tried to slay him, but none could touch him for the power of Aiy in him. And he went from place to place crying repentance unto as many as would listen, but it was that the hearts of the people of Nyōrd were too hard, and he was cast away as a vagabond. Nevertheless, he took his people and those very few who would listen to him and settled in a new place, and this place was near unto the place where his forefathers had come from. 
And it was that in the land of Nyōrd, the people went from wickedness to wickedness, and they had Lōk to be their guide, for that portion of the world is his domain. And they located the righteous records which Thelli had written and buried them deep within the earth, causing them to be lost. And we beheld that they also buried the records of their fathers, some of whom were righteous. And those writing which had been written by their wicked fathers became lost, such was the curse on the land. 
For in those days the Aiylōhyme caused a curse to come upon the land, and now we know this curse that any people so exceedingly wicked that no righteous dwell among them cannot hold their belongings and possessions. And this curse is a curse that must come upon all wicked nations and people, for the matter from which these possessions are created from is matter unto the Aiylōhyme; therefore, the matter cannot abide the presence of utter wickedness, therefore it flees away from them. And in this manner, it is as it is written that their possessions became slippery unto them. And all men blamed one another for their missing possessions. And all came up unto anger one against another. And thus it was that the many records and tablets, and writings of this wicked people were consumed by the earth. And we know and it was shown us that the writings of Thelli, which were lost, shall once again be had; nevertheless, the writings of the wicked have been thrust down to Hel and Helel guards them as is her punishment. 
And this was the vision of the north parts of the earth, for Lōk is its master, and he is a vagabond there still to this day. And when the day came that a righteous man on the earth came, he found the vagabond among the slaughter of this people, for the entire people had slaughtered itself in anger and greed, and thus was the seed of Lōk ended. And the righteous man, and we know not his name, sealed Lōk in the pit which is Mūspleheim. And at this time, so too were Sert and the Mūsple sealed inside, but Hrōdi cannot be sealed inside until the great and last day when Thūnoraz himself will seal Hrōdi in the pit, and this is so that Hrōdi may try and test man. But Sert and Lōk are not to try and test man but are appendages of Hrōdi's endless wickedness, and all are bound to the earth. 
And it was that we were shown the earth as it was a great rod. And that rod stretched into the north and into the south and to the east and to the west. And an Aiyseir alighted upon the earth and said: It is given you to know the directions of the earth and see the hidden things therein. Where do you wish to go? 
And it came to pass that I said: We desire to see the south. And so it was that we went down the rod to the south. And we beheld the crust of the earth, that there were many great things hidden beneath the crust here. And we beheld the deluge that it abated. And we saw the lands of the south as they were a single continent, and this continent was attached to the west by a land bridge. And we beheld a great and mighty civilization that it lay dormant beneath the crust. And the Aiyseir said: Arise, you hidden things, and make yourself known! 
And it was that that dormant civilization arose from the dust, and with it many records, as is the lot of the people of the Aiyseir. And mighty stones arose from the dust and sat upon the earth, and they seemed after the manner of the stones that the people of Yōhannaz carve. And on them were writings that no man could translate save they had the power of Heimalaz and the seer, and we were permitted to translate some few of them which we have not included here, but they are had among the people of Yōhannaz and they are mighty, and only a truly righteous people may have them, for the writings are commanded never to come forth save by the word of the Aiy alone. 
And after we translated these stones, we beheld a mighty civilization that it was industrious and it watched over the land. And it was ruled by the Elves, and they were just caretakers of the earth and tilled it only when the earth permitted, and they fasted the remainder of the time. And these were the Elves which Aiylōhyme placed on the earth to help steward it, for the Aiyseir knew that man would be everlasting greed and only a few righteous would exist save for the Vyaneir which abide only in spirit or upon Athalaz in perfected bodies. 
And the Aiylōhyme set the elves to guard the earth and thus they watched over her as stewards and caretakers, and they care for the earth when the hearts of men grow exceedingly wicked, but when the hearts of men grow increasingly righteous, they depart the earth, for they are not needed, for it is given man to steward over the earth. 
And we beheld the elves, that they built mighty structures, but not mighty as the ways of man, for at this time, men built many mighty structures after their pride. But the elves built structures to aid the earth and give her and all that live on her sanctuary. And thus, it is that they are blessed among all beings upon the earth. 
And when we had seen this, we beheld the earth as it was a great rod. And the rod stretched into the north and into the south and to the east and to the west. And Thūnoraz himself alighted upon the earth and spoke, saying: Sons of men, what do you desire to behold? 
And we spoke, saying: We desire to see the hidden things of the east. 
And we were taken to the east to the time before the great deluge. And we beheld the rotations of the earth and the stars, that they were not as they were. And we beheld the sun that it was nearer the earth and gave more life. And we beheld the crust of the east that it hid many great things. And Thūnoraz spoke, saying: Sons of men, what do you wish to see? 
And we spoke, saying: We desire to see the hidden things of the east. 
And Thūnoraz spoke again, saying: See the hidden things of the east. 
And we beheld the deluge roll back and the hidden things of the earth arise from beneath the crust. And we beheld the dwarves that they cared for the garden in the absence of Azk and Emalō. And there were Aiyseir there and the Dwarves and the Aiyseir dwelt together in peace and they tilled the garden and aided it to grow. But the corruption of the earth began to cause the garden to wilt and depress, insomuch that the dwarves and the Aiyseir began to fret for it exceedingly. And they with one voice cried unto the Aiylōhyme and the Aiylōhyme had mercy upon the dwarves and the Aiyseir and upon the precious garden which they had created. And it came to pass that they took up the matter of the garden and set the remainder beneath the earth and thus was the garden hidden from the world, and in the absence of the world did the garden begin again to thrive and no more did it wilt. 
And the dwarves, knowing that much of the essence of the garden had been removed below, sought a way to reach it. And they became industrious like unto the elves of the south and they began to tunnel down towards the garden. And when they had reached it, there they settled and again began caring for the garden and tilling it until the day when the Aiylōhyme would again call it back up. 
And we also beheld a nation of people that they were righteous among all the earth and they were warned of the coming deluge which would destroy the wicked upon the earth and the cried unto their creators to save them and an Aiyseir landed in their midst and they were led into the tunnels of the dwarves and into the garden place which had been preserved by the Aiylōhyme and there they dwelt in righteousness with the dwarves. 
And it came to pass that after we beheld this, we saw the earth as it was a great rod, and that it stretched far into the north and into the south and to the east and into the west. And an Aiyseir alighted upon the earth and said: Sons of Thūnoraz, what is wanted? 
And we both spoke, saying: We desire to see the hidden things of the west. And we were led into the west where we beheld the crust of the earth that it was barren. And we beheld nothing below, and nothing above. And we asked the Aiyseir: What is the meaning of this? 
And the Aiyseir spoke saying: This is the place which is called Sheol in the Hebrew and the place which is called the Gehenna in Aramaic and the place which is called Hel in the Nyōrse. 
And we wondered and awed at it. And the Aiyseir spoke again, saying: Behold this place that it is dark. And here are all the spirits of the damned kept until they shall be loosed again on the earth for a season. For so it is that in the last days a man will be given the key to this place and he shall unlock it and the hoard shall remove from it and they shall again dwell upon the earth. 
And Fresian and myself, we wept at the sight and cried saying, is there any who can close this place up again? 
And the Aiyseir said: Throughout the ages it is given men to shut the door to this place, now behold the men who have shut the door to this place. And we beheld Nōh, our father, that he closed the door to this place, and we beheld Svemaz his son that he closed the door to this place, and many there were throughout the ages who had shut the door to this place. But nearly as often, a man who was a disciple and the heir of that Lōk came again to open the door to this place, and there are nearly as many men that opened it as men who closed it. 
And we beheld that nearly every time it was closed, Lōk was trapped inside and Sert was trapped inside, but Hrōdi was never trapped inside, for it is given Hrōdi to try and to tempt men. But Lōk and Sert are doers of evil and have no place upon the earth, for they are darkness everlasting. 
But Hrōdi was nearly always left to try and torment man. And in this, we saw that the Lōkic combinations always began again, for Hrōdi was the master of them. And in this way, a man was always led unto the pit. 
And we cried unto the Aiyseir: Why can the doors not be closed for good? 
And the Aiyseir said: Because of the demands of justice which say a being must be tried, but cannot ever be locked away without an end to the imprisonment, for such is the universal laws of justice. If there be a beginning, there must needs be an end. 
And we cried again saying: But Aiyseir, they are loosed and they cause much pain and sorrow upon the earth. Is there no way to trap them forever that the denizens of the earth may be spared? 
And the Aiyseir spoke, saying: There is not. Nevertheless, there will come a time when Thūnoraz shall touch his foot upon the earth a second time. And when he does this all the Dregr and the Mūsple, the goblins and the trolls shall be locked inside the pit one final time. And here they shall stay until the completion of the earth when they shall be again loosed a final time. 
And we beheld Hrōdi that he was incarcerated when Thūnoraz touched down upon the earth, and all the dregr with him. Insomuch that there were no wicked or evil spirits upon the earth at all. And the ways of men became peace everlasting. And we beheld the earth that she gave of all her secrets. And we also beheld the garden that had gone above and below that it was again joined to the earth. And in this time, the elves came among men to dwell with them and the dwarves and the souls of the Nifle were had among all men, for all men were of equal stature to the Son. And in this time, the Aiylōhyme came down to visit the earth as was in the garden, and all they who had ascended to become Aiyseir came frequently to visit the earth. 
Nevertheless, there came again a man who located the keys to the pit and all were set loose again. And the evil spirits tried to make war with the Aiyseir, but the Aiyseir had no war in their hearts and refused to take part. And the lesser part of men went to war, but never came near unto the garden place for fear of the Aiyseir that dwelt there. And the earth became waste away in war and violence. And it was that all the wicked destroyed themselves even until there were none left upon the earth. And it was that there was not upon the earth save the hoards and the Aiyseir, and the Aiyseir invoked the right of justice and banished the hoards from the earth, never to step foot upon her again. And they went to the place which cannot be named, for there is no name. 
And we beheld the earth as it was a sphere, that the rods were all one. And an Aiyseir alighted upon the earth and asked: What is wanted? 
And I asked: We have seen the hidden things of the earth, Aiyseir. What else may we see? 
And the Aiyseir tapped his toe to the east ocean and it began to swell and we looked within and beheld a great star that it dwelt within the earth. And the Aiyseir spoke, saying: What you see is what the earth shall be, for this is the soul of the earth which is righteous and holy above all the creations of the Aiylōhyme. 
And we asked: What does this thing mean? 
And the Aiysier spoke, saying: When the work of the earth is complete, she shall not take upon herself the silver body as she has hitherto done, nor will she take up the golden body as the Son has before her, but she shall take up the body of flame. And she shall dwell in everlasting burnings. 
And we beheld the soul of the earth that it swelled and became mighty like unto the stars in the sky and the heat upon the earth caused all to melt and all became as glass, great Elohimus. 
And we beheld the glass that it was white and silver and pure above all. 
And the Aiyseir lowered us towards the earth which was now called Velhyme in the north tongue. And the Aiyseir spoke saying: In this way the earth shall become like unto Athalaz and the two shall become one, connected by the bands and the cords which have been woven by the Sisters. And we beheld three planets which had also ascended unto the fourth order, that they were they which were called the Sisters, and they had caused the cords and the lines to be woven throughout the universe, and all were connected through them. 
But we again beheld the earth that fire was on her everlasting, Elohimus. And we record no more of this vision, for it was great, and that is all we are permitted to write. Nevertheless, any may see this vision in its entirety, for we have left out many details. 
I am Yōzefos the seer, and I am he who wrote these things. And I am the father of that great seer who should come set my people free from their bondage among the lands of Scythia. I call on all that they may read these things which I have written and know of their surety through that power which Heimalaz possesses, and all may see the remainder of this vision and I plead that all will seek it, for there are many things in it which are important unto the salvation of souls. And thus I make an end of my writings. Aiy.

Chapter 8

The prophecies of Hargalabūs the prophet concerning the fate of Rome;

Now, this Yōzefos wrote many more things which I shall not record here, but I shall record many other things which have been seen and written by this people, for Yōzefos was not the last mighty seer which walked among this people. Nay, but there were many others, and is this not the Book of Prophecies and Visions among the people of Aiyanthi? It is. Therefore, I abridge the remainder of this book. 
Now, after Yōzefos came a seer named Hargalabūs and he was not from among our people, but came up with Yōzefos and Fresian after their mission unto the Rōmwasi. And Hargalabūs was a Rōmwasi, but was converted, and he took up the Book of Prophecies and Visions after Yōzefos passed over the wall. And I abridge his writings. 
Behold, I am Hargalabūs, the adopted son of Yōzefos the seer. Now, my adopted father has passed from this life and I desire to continue the writings which he began, for the Aiylōhyme so do instruct me. 
Now, I am celibate and will not have any seed, and this is a personal decision between me and my creators therefore, judge not, for the Aiyanthi delight in marriage and having many children. However, this is not my calling and I have confirmed this through the Aiylōhyme and I am content. Therefore, I write not unto my seed, for I will have none, but unto the seed of my kinsmen, for the Aiylōhyme have shown me many great and marvelous things, not nearly as marvelous as the things shown unto Yōzefos, but great things, and I am contented in them. And I write not in the manner of visions as did my father, but I write in the manner of prophecies, for such is my calling. 
Now, the seed of my kinsmen. I am a foreigner from a far distant land. And I know that that distant land shall one day consume the entirety of the earth insofar as they are capable. And it is to my sorrow that your kinsmen shall be among those consumed by their hatred and greed. And it shall be that the day will come when the Rōmwasi shall discover the hiding places of your kinsmen and they will come up in lust against them for your great knowledge and your beautiful lands. And they will take up the sword and the shield and will march great distances in order to bring you under their heel. And they shall do this in the manner of great war. Poor wicked souls. I cry because of them in my sleep, and in my wakefulness, for the Aiylōhyme have shown me their fate, that after they shall come up in anger because of you, they shall turn unto themselves and shall war against themselves as we know many nations have done. And there shall be civil wars and enmity between brothers. 
Now, I declare that this Rōmwas of which I speak is where the spirit of Harethal of old has been relocated to, therefore, don't weep as I do for their fall, for they are those who hate you and desire your downfall, but nonetheless, I weep for them because they are my brothers and my sisters. 
And I also know and prophecy that in that day that they turn against themselves, that their great empire shall be split in twain and shall continue to war against itself insomuch that there will come many holes in the armor of this great nation. And I foresee some among your kinsmen shall take advantage of these weaknesses and shall aid others in causing the mighty downfall of this nation and at last this people shall have revenge against the wicked city of Rōmwas. But I know that this does not bring you, my new kinsmen, joy. Because you revel not in violence and hatred and have prayed for Rōmwas many years that they might become a righteous and delightsome people once again. 
And now, I testify, for it is made known unto me by Heimalaz that the day will come when this people and our righteous kinsmen round about shall be called to send many prophets unto the Rōmwasi that some few of them may be called away from the wickedness in which they find themselves. And this that the way might be prepared in the northern parts for the coming of Messiah, for not long after we shall send our prophets and our seers and our seeresses down unto the Rōmwasi, the Messiah shall come and set free our bonds. And I foresee that it shall be Rōmwas, that great whore that shall curse him and shall raise him up and slay him as has been prophesied about for many generations among this people. 
And thus, we must prepare the way before him in the northern parts, for there are many righteous souls among the Rōmwasi and not all of them are wicked in their hearts. 
And I testify that that nation shall be guilty for the crime of killing the Aiy, thus a vast punishment shall be meted out upon their heads, for they have slain an Aiy. Nevertheless, and as I have said, there must needs to a preface to this in order that those few who shall listen will hear the words of Thūnoraz and this that not all of this people shall be utterly wasted away at his passing. 
For so it shall be that when they slay the Messiah, that in the very day they shall, a great punishment shall be meted out and there will come down storms and hails upon their heads, and the whole of this land shall become covered with ash and dust and none shall be able to behold their hand in front of their face for the ash and soot which shall cover the land. And Rōmwas shall suffer greatly under this and many there shall be that perish under the fires of inferno. And Tartarus to the south shall capture the many dead which shall be slain by the fires. And this great destruction shall last for many moons, and all this for that the wicked had slayed the Messiah. 
And when that day comes, you, kinsmen, shall rejoice, for it shall halt the progress of the Rōmwasi, for they shall desire the lands you shall inhabit. Nevertheless, the Aiylōhyme shall set a barrier between they and you and they shall desire no longer to come up into these northern parts and shall assail the southern parts only. And you shall not become subjected under their great empire but shall be preserved. And this because of the great punishment which shall destroy many of the wicked in that day and thus the Rōmwasi shall know that it is the judgments of the just Aiylōhyme upon their heads. 
I too see, in that day, that there shall come from the south the truth of the Messiah, for Thūnoraz shall have done his work upon the earth and shall take up the body of fire which is like unto his Father and his Mother. And he shall dwell upon the earth in many places at once, for he is Aiyseir and Aiyseir may dwell where they choose. And he shall come to these parts and with him, he will bring the record of his people to the south. And you shall meet with them and join with them for a time. Nevertheless, Rōmwas shall come up in even greater wickedness, and the combinations of Lōk shall be their gods, and they will utterly seek to crush this little sect of Messiahites under their heel. And they will do all they must in order to snuff them out, and under the face of such oppression, they will be, and the gospel which Thūnoraz and his disciples established, will become tainted with the blood of oaths. And when this, this people will not stand idly by, but will mount up and shall go down two by two and twelve by twelve that they might reclaim some pieces of this group which had been crushed. And they will call to repentance again that great whore which is Harethal-Rōmwas and for this impertinence, the Rōmwasi shall hold you in their minds and shall desire your blood as they have desired the blood of the people of the Messiah. 
And lo you have been righteous, my kinsmen, the day will come in which you shall be beset on all sides by Rōmwas and they will desire to make you pay for the pain and terror they believe you have caused them, for in their fall, they will face the vengeance of the nations of the Celts and the tribes of Iberia. And they will blame you, for you shall proclaim upon them this doom from the first. And they will raise up armies to come against you and in the end they shall smite you. 
But I see in your hearts that you do not fear, for you will go unto the rest of the Aiyseir becoming Vyaneir. And in this way, you need not fear the works of any man. And I declare it so, for in that day, though you may fall, for your courage, your children and your children's children shall be saved as Vyaneir. 
But those of Rōmwas must needs fear, for although they shall persist for a seemingly endless time, the day will come when their wickedness and their crimes shall fall upon their heads. And for their wickedness the Aiylōhyme must needs smite them a final time. And Aiylōhyme will mete out a just destruction upon their heads for a last time. And nation will gather against them and utterly wipe them out. 
And the corrupted religion of the Messiah which they have carried shall collapse as dust and fall down as their temples shall fall. And the wickedness of this religion shall be no more. And it shall be your seed and the kinsmen of your seed that shall sift through the souls at that day and claim as many as needs be claimed. For there will be some few among the Rōmwasi at that day that will swoop lower than your seed and shall awake to the wickedness which their fathers and their fathers fathers had committed and shall there make amends and shall aid in restoring all to the fulness. 
And I make an end of my prophesying, for the remainder of my visions and prophesies I shall speak orally, but this one I make writing of, for it is deemed with some great importance for the Aiylōhyme. 
And now, this Hargalabūs was a righteous man and truly he had no seed, for none alive today may trace their lineage back to him. Nevertheless, his teachings are held with great regard among my people. And, yet he said he would write no more of his words, he did, for he caused that some of his teachings be carved upon the wall which Hennen built, for his teachings were great and lo, he had no seed, we all revere him as a father.

Chapter 9

The prophecies, visions, and teachings of Hennen the Seer concerning the order of planets and the entropy of knowledge; about 35-40 AD.

Now, I desire to abridge the things of Hennen. For while Hennen has written much upon many stone tablets which I know shall be preserved until the final day, he has written many other things in the Book of Prophecies and Visions. Therefore, I record what Visions and prophecies the Aiylōhyme deem fit. And these sayings of Hennen are not had among his other writings, therefore, they are unique among them. 
Now, my children, I am Hennen, son of Yōhannaz, and I am he who came out of the land of Scythia with my people. And at the mighty word of the Aiylōhyme I have performed miracles and have seen miracles and have passed through the veil insomuch that our enemies could neither see us nor touch us. And all these works are recorded among my other writings thus I do not write them here. But, this Book of Visions and Prophecies has been had among my people for generations and while I have written much, I would be remiss to forget to record my words in this book; this righteous book which was begun by that incredible seer Yōzefos who is my father, and I am his son. And thus I will record what great things the Aiylōhyme have caused me to write in it. And that that my seed may have my words and the words of my fathers and that these sayings shall come forward in that great and last day, praise be unto Aiylōhyme Aiyseir of all. 
For so it is that there are many orders of planets, and each planet is distinct in its history and its people, yet, we know that they are all peopled by Aiyseir and by Elves and Nifles and spirits of all kinds. And many of which receive a body which is a token between them and Aiylōhyme of the covenants which they have made. Now, behold, my seed, that there are nine middle-planets in this sphere and many lesser-planets. And this earth we walk upon is of the middling variety, wherefore it is called Middle-Earth. And at some future day it shall be called Middle-Earth no longer, but shall becalled Velhyme having become a kingdom and a hall of Athalaz the great Aiy planet to which ours is connected. 
And these are sayings among our people, and a minute portion of the teachings which are written upon the Wall. For the Wall is a great temple and teaching place unto us. Therefore, on it we have recorded all of our greatest teachings, for we would that each individual among the seed of Yōhannaz may know them. 
For we know that it is a great sign of decrease when a people lose in light and knowledge. And we see it happen before our eyes with Rōmwas to the south, for they were an offshoot of Grekō and Grekō is an offshoot of Peliponae which itself can trace its lineage unto Ham the son of Nōh. But before that, they came from Esaw and Esaw made amends with his brother Yahkōb and became a righteous soul unto the Aiy, therefore, he and his people carried with them the teachings of their fathers. And they settled in the lands of Peliponae. 
And for long time the lands of Peliponae were righteous after the manner of their father, but it was that they began to become a warlike and ferocious people, easily caught in all manner of lascivious traps and wickedness of all kinds. And thus it was that what great knowledge they carried with them began to ebb away. And there were those among them that took of that knowledge and basterdized it and made it a wicked religion. And there were those among them who took it and worshiped the many idols that had sprung from it and thus it became a religion of idols. Yet, to this day, there is much light and knowledge there, even if it is to an exceedingly lesser degree. 
And thus it shall be with the righteous to the south. For as of now, they carry with them the Gospel of Thūnoraz and it is complete and holy. And we have joined with them and I have spoken with this Peter face to face, who is the high chief of the disciples of Messiah. And we have given him our records and he has given us his. And we have communed one with the other. And all the holy prophets among the people to the south we have met with and they are a good and whole people and have all things in common. 
Nevertheless, it is that in a coming day there shall be such great wickedness and evil come against them and much pressure shall mount upon them that they shall break underneath it. And the Aiylōhyme will not begrudge them this, for the armies of Hrōdi and Sert shall give all to see this little band of Messiahites fall. And in the end they shall, nevertheless, the Aiylōhyme shall take up those pour souls and they shall become kings and queens, chiefs and chiefesses among the Aiyseir forever. Nevertheless, there will ultimately be those who shall see a way to gain from this gospel and will seek out the oaths of old and the prison shall be opened and the pacts and oaths of Sert shall be had among them once more. 
Now, this is the gospel which shall be taken unto all the world, for this people will take of the gospel of the Yahūdi and will corrupt it nearly entirely. It will look, in the end, nothing like the truth of the gospel of the Lamb. And this they will do by signing documents and calling creeds. For they will be led entirely by the combinations of Lōk, for they will have slain the prophets of Aiylōhyme. 
And when this day comes, my seed, you need not fear. For though this assembly shall seek to destroy you in your entirety, it is as our fathers have written prior, that we too shall be saved in the kingdom of our Aiy. 
Nevertheless, I continue. For when they shall come up in their oaths and their creeds, they will strip almost entirely the truths of the gospel of the Lamb away and all that is good shall be shed and what little that remains shall be entirely corrupt. And many of the righteous truths shall be lost. And in this way, they shall be exactly like their fathers, the Greki before them. Rōmwas shall be after the manner of Grekō and Grekō is after the manner of Peliponae. 
And such is the way of things, for this decay too shall happen with our people, for the day will come when this assembly of the Rōmwasi will consume entirely my people and much is written about that. But all that shall be left in this land are those who adhere to the combinations of Lōk. For Lōk shall be loosed in this place for a season and with that newly bought freedom, he shall reign over this people as a god. And they will make him their false Aiy and he will lead them with linen cords. And when this day comes, our doctrine and the doctrine of our fathers which we have kept faithfully since the time of Yōhannaz and prior since the time of Elōhizar and since the time of Svemaz. And there will be none in the land to maintain these things, for the prophets shall be shut up, and the chisel and the diamond will be hidden that none may engrave upon any tablet save it be the things of Yōrmongond. This dreadful day will come, for I have seen it, and my fathers have seen it, and our religion which was given by the mouth of Messiah himself will become just as basterdized as the rest of the religions upon the face of the earth, save for those few that are hidden from the sight of men. 
Therefore, I make a statement that all may return unto what it was. As Yōzefos before me sent a seed of faith down his line and his lineage, I, Hennen do as well, for it is written by my own hand the many covenants which Thūnoraz has made unto our fathers and unto us as he came and dwelled with us for the space of a time. And as sure as he did come, he promised by his own word that our seed would not sit in darkness for too long. That the day would come when a restoration of all things would begin in earnest. Therefore, I make these writings that at some future day, my seed and the descendants of my seed shall know of us, that we were, and that we are preserved and have become Vyaneir according to the promises of the All-Father and All-Mother unto us. 
And now, I make an end to my prophesying unto my seed, for I have written exceeding much and I suspect that nearly all the works of my hand will be preserved upon the earth, and I know, for it is given me to know, that at some future day they will be dug up from out of the earth like a being resurrected, and that they will again see the light of Sōl. And when that day comes, the writings of my hand which is an account of my life and the lives of my people and what great things the Aiy have given us. Therefore I make an end of writing here.

Chapter 10

The vision of Āhaz the prophet, brother of Vovfen concerning the 10 Maidens; around 200 AD.

Now, I Vovfen write the things which were had among my people at my time, for there are many visions which are recorded by our hand. Therefore, I make an account. 
I am Āhaz, brother of Vovfen, and my father is Aiynar the seer and I record the vision which I had in the year that Vovfen returned from his journeying to Scythia. 
For I found myself in a vast mountain surrounded about on all sides by trees, as is recorded by our father Yōzefos, and I testify that it is the same mountain in which he found himself. And I beheld an Aiyseir settle down upon an alter and he said unto me: Son of Yōhannaz, speak the words of your heart. 
And I beheld myself in front of many people, and I spoke whatsoever Heimalaz placed into my heart, and I heard not the words, nor could recall them. Nonetheless, I knew that I had spoken them. 
And the Aiyseir said unto me: You shall go down unto the people of Ecclesia and there prophesy unto them, for that land is ripe for a harvest of the wicked, for they have all gone away from the Way. 
And I said: Blessed Aiyseir, I will go. But I have not seen many great mysteries as has my brother, for I am young and have scarcely walked in Sydeir. 
And the Aiyseir spoke: Oh, child of faith, look and behold the mystery of ten maidens which was told among your ancestors. Do you know the meaning of this thing? 
I said: I do not know, for my people scarcely talk of this mystery. 
And the Aiyseir said: Then behold, child, and let it be well with you. 
And I looked and beheld a well-lit town and in it there were ten maidens, beautiful and fair to behold. And I saw the Chief that he sent a messenger unto each and each received their messenger and the messengers spoke, saying: Awake and arise, children of Aiyseir, for on the morrow the Chief comes. 
And the maidens became excited one with the other, and they went about making preparations for the morrow. 
And one spoke unto another, saying: The night is long, and the morn is not nigh at hand. Let us rest for a spell that we may wake refreshed for the coming of the chief. 
And the two maidens fell asleep by the fire to keep warm. And there came two other maidens and saw the two sleeping next to the fire. And the one said unto the other: Why not sleep we? For the night is long and we will wake on the morrow, for the chief shall arrive. 
And they both went near the fire and slept. 
And there came the remaining six and they saw the four sleeping next to the fire, for they were wrought with tiredness. And the one said unto the others, they sleep, know they not that the chief shall arrive tomorrow with the doweries from the other tribes? Let us not be like unto them and let us instead go up in Sydier that we might stay awake. And thus was the attitude of her mockery. 
And the others, knowing that her mockery would bring goblins near unto the camp, said: Go your way, sister, for your attitude is the attitude of mockery and such thing brings goblins. Go and repent lest you end up as they. 
And the maiden said unto the others: I shall not surely bring about goblins, but will surely be saved from them by the Valkyr. 
And the five departed from the one and the five found a secluded place where they talked amongst themselves. And as they talked amongst themselves, there came a Valkyr from the realm of Athalaz. And the Valkyr asked: Sisters, what do you want? 
And the maidens spoke as one, saying: Our sisters have fallen asleep and the one mocks the others. We have fled that we might await patiently the coming of the chief. 
And the Valkyr said: It is well with you. Come with me and I will teach you all that you should know, for on the morrow the Chief shall come bringing the dowries. And the maidens followed the Valkyr into the land of the Vyaneir and there they sat and were taught many important things which cannot be discussed. And they each received a tablet upon which was written a name, and no man knows the name. And upon their return to the earth, they beheld that Sōl rose in the east, and they rejoiced and went unto their other sisters that they might teach them all that they had received. Alas, the four were still asleep as with the one who had fallen prey to sleep. And they tried to awake their sisters but with no avail. And there came the sound of the Carnyx to the east and the sound of bull horns followed and all the sisters awoke, and they stood around and began praising the Aiy that the morn had arrived swiftly. 
And the messengers went before the chief and found all the sisters awake but beheld that only five held the tablets upon which was carved the name. And the messengers asked: Why do only five of you have the tablets upon which is carved the name? Did the Valkyr not come to deliver you unto the bridge of Heimalaz? 
And the one sister spoke in the attitude of mockery, saying: My sisters fell asleep, for they sought only the coming of the chief and not to do his work. Therefore, I watched over them that they awoke not, but Aiyseir, I have received the name, for I was up in Sydeir. 
And the messengers spoke, saying: Oh, child of Hel, why do you lie? Depart, for you care only for yourself. And the sister departed into the land of ice. 
And the four began to fret, saying: Aiyseir, we were overcome with exhaustion and desired to rest that we might be refreshed ere the chief arrives. 
And the messengers said: Oh fools, know you not that you must needs have the name upon the tablet? 
And the four feared and began to go up in Sydeir that they might receive the tablet. And the messengers said unto the five: We see that you have received the tablet and the new name. Therefore, the chief knows of your virtue. Come and behold the arrival of the chief. 
And it was that the four prayed mightily that they might go up in Sydeir, but it eluded them. And the five went unto the road and beheld the retinue of the chief that it was mighty. And the chief came unto them, saying: You blessed, you have received the tablet and the name therefore follow me and we will feast this day and tonight you may rest, for I have prepared a place for you. 
And the five followed. But the four wept and wailed, for they could not come up in Sydeir. 
Now, the Aiyseir said unto me: Know the meaning of these things? 
And I said: I do not, for they are not spoken much among my people. 
The Aiyseir said: Take them, for they are yours. This is the meaning of the parable which Thūnoraz gave. There are ten churches established upon the earth and each shall become like unto the ten maidens. And there are those churches which shall fall asleep, for they shall believe that the work of the Aiy has been fulfilled in its entirety. And believing that the work of the Aiy has been fulfilled shall become comfortable and shall sleep and shall not awake until the final messengers arrive. And when those messengers arrive, there shall be no time, for those churches have slept for too long, and ere the chief comes, they cannot go up in Sydeir that they might receive the name and all hope is lost them. Know the meaning and the importance of the name? 
And I said: The name is that which identifies us as being sealed in the book which the Aiyseir keep. 
And the Aiyseir said: That is correct. It must needs be that these churches also receive a new name, for they are one body. 
And I asked: How might these churches receive a new name as we do? 
And the Aiyseir spoke, saying: The name is known unto the Aiylōhyme, and the tablet is the words which they receive from the mouth of the Aiyseir, therefore these churches are taught by the Aiyseir and receive their words. 
And I said: I believe you, Aiyseir. Therefore, tell me of the one maiden. 
And the Aiyseir said: The one represents that assembly which shall come up in pride above all others and shall mock the others while they sleep and shall believe itself to be above the others. And it shall believe that it had received already the name which the Aiyseir would have given it, nevertheless, it too fell asleep as did the others, and it separated itself from the others and was lost forever. 
And I asked: What of the five? 
And the Aiyseir said: The five faithful represent the five churches which shall be established upon the land and those shall toil throughout the night, and they shall receive further instruction and in so doing, they shall receive that tablet upon which is written the name. And when the morn comes, they tire, and because they tire, the Aiylōhyme give them rest, and those bands dwell in refuge. 
And when I had seen this, I asked: Why, Aiyseir, must I know this? For I am but a boy and slow of speech, I am not like unto my brother who is mighty in speech and powerful in presence. 
And the Aiyseir said: Know that the Aiylōhyme give unto each man a gift? 
And I said: Yes, I know this. 
And the Aiyseir said: Judge not yourself because you have not the same gift as another man. I name you Vergetiūs after your father. Get up and make haste, for an entire nation must needs hear the words of your heart. For lo, you are not mighty in speech, you are great in spirit and Heimalaz delights in your purity. 
And I knew of a certainty that the Aiyseir that stood before me was Thūnoraz, for he had veiled himself, but now he stood as he was. And I fell at his feet and wept and said: Thūnoraz, Aiyseir, I am not worthy. 
And Thūnoraz spoke, saying; I make you worthy, Vergetiūs. You are a child of the Aiylōhyme, and you shall lead many people in my name, for you are tender of heart. Therefore, go that those maidens may not sleep. 
And I awoke from Sydeir knowing all that I must do and I record not all of my dream, for it is sacred to me. Aiy!

Chapter 11

The prophecies, visions, and teachings of Vovfen the prophet concerning the destiny of the people of Ephraim; about 200 AD.

Now, I, Vovfen, make an account of the visions which we had while we traveled into the land of the Scythians. For upon our leaving, we came up in Sydeir, all thirteen of us. And when we did this, we were taken unto a far distant place, and we beheld our seed and the seed of those who would be if we were diligent in converting some among the Scythians. And we beheld them at a far distant day. 
And Thūnoraz came among us, saying: You have heard it said that in due course your people shall fall and that there should be a dearth and a famine of knowledge and faith for the space of a time. And you have also heard it said and it is written that there must needs come a day of restoration when all is restored unto this earth. Write all that you shall see that they may have it to aid them when that day comes. 
And we all recorded the vision which we beheld. 
And we saw a wicked city, that it covered the face of the earth, and that into it were sent many prophets, some from among our kinsmen and our seed, and some from the descendants of other nations. And thus was the work of the gathering commenced. And we beheld, each of us, those of our seed that would bring about this mighty work. And I Vovfen beheld a seer from among my seed that he took up these tablets and began a translation of them, and from them came forward many other records which would not have otherwise been known. And now this, at the time, was a curiosity and caused me to ponder, but now I know that this was a commandment from Aiylōhyme to construct these records. Nevertheless, the words which I had written went forward and established the righteousness of this people, and others from among my kinsmen began to speak to their children, and the work of restoration began in earnest. 
And I saw that at some point the children of Hennen had fled this, their place of refuge, and they sought refuge among our relatives upon the isles of the sea. And when this, they had taken what few records they could carry, and they fled. And the larger portion went unto these isles and the lesser portion of the children of Hennen went unto the far coasts and those that went unto the isles carried with them the primary records, which is an account of the children of Svemaz from the time of Yōhannaz down to their time when they shall flee. And the children that fled unto the coasts carried with them the lesser records, which records are the records of the teachings of my people. 
And they shall split apart, and they shall go their separate ways. And I beheld that the portion that went unto Iberia were caught up in the storm that will be this new assembly. And their teachings were lost. Nevertheless, the records which they carried with them shall be preserved. 
And the portion that went unto the isles were also caught up in the storm of this assembly, yet their records were also preserved. And I beheld my seed that it dwindled in unbelief for the space of many years, and thus forgot the records of their ancestors, and the records became lost, and none knew where to find them. 
But behold the power of Aiylōhyme, for in that day of restoration my seed shall again take up the records which were lost, and they shall translate them into their own tongue, and they shall again know their ancestors as we shall know them. 
And I also beheld the records in Iberia, that they too were lost to time. But behold, there will come a seer from the seed of my kinsmen, and they shall take up those records and they will translate them, and in that day, my seed and the seed of my kinsmen shall join the records together and again have the fulness of their fathers. And they will take this fullness unto the remnant of our seed which is scattered about the continent and in the south and in the isles of the sea. And many shall be converted and take up the just cause of their fathers. 
And now, I write unto those that shall not take part in the initiation of this restoration, but shall be brought in at a later time, for I see that some of you have a hardness in your hearts, for you have suffered under the oppression of a great assembly and many laws and you have hardened your hearts against the Aiyseir and have taken up the teachings of Lōk. 
I say unto you that I am Vovfen, and I am your father. And when you shall read these things, you shall know that I am Vovfen, your father, for Heimalaz will enter into your heart and you will burn with the burnings of everlasting faith. And when you have begun to burn, you shall begin to take up the teachings of your fathers, and in so doing, your hearts will be softened. And fear not when this day shall come, for you will begin to seek the face of your ancestors, for knowledge will be given unto you of them, and you will desire to speak with them face to face. 
And in so doing, you must need first seek the face of Thūnoraz, who walked among us, for it will burn in your heart that you must step into his presence as you walk into a room. And you must need converse with him as one talks with another, and in doing this, you will be taught all that you must know concerning us and your ancestors. 
And then we will begin to teach you face to face, and you will speak in our tongue, and we shall speak in your tongue. And lo, our languages are different, yet we will understand each other. And we will come unto you and show you the things of your past. And when that day comes, you will know that your leaders and your teachers have lied to you about us, for, though, many were warlike among us, we are a people of peace and we have walked and talked with the Aiy as one talks to another and we know our Aiy and we follow them and they lead and teach us. 
And in that day, you will set down the things of the wicked world, the lying's and the deceiving's and the murmurings and the hard heartedness and you will joy with us, for you will again dance in the flames as your fathers before you and we will join you and we will teach you our many ceremonies and our ways of life and of our music and our dancing and we will rejoice together in righteousness and all will be sealed up unto the Aiylōhyme. 
Nevertheless, I saw, for Thūnoraz showed me, that there will be many that will mock you for your beliefs, for they will see only what Hrōdi and Sert desire them to see, for Hrōdi and Sert have hid up the things of righteousness, for they hate us, and we are their enemies. And thus, in that day, many will come unto you and say: Vofdenaz and Thūnoraz are not gods of peace but of war. And you are a mockery of us, and you have corrupted our teachings. 
And I say to those, oh fools! Know you not the gods you worship? Were you there when Thūnoraz descended upon us in his chariot? Or were you there when he healed our sick and raised our dead? No, you were not. Therefore, how can you mock a teaching and a people you know nothing of? I say unto those, get hence, for you are corrupt. 
But unto all those who are righteous and desire peace and the ways of peace, I say, seek that Thūnoraz that he may visit you as he has visited us. And in that day, you will know that he is an Aiyseir of peace and not war. 
And this was the vision which I had, and thus, I make an end of the abridgment of the Book of Prophecies and Visions. And there are many more things written within; therefore, when the day comes, let not this abridgment suffice, but seek to translate the book in its entirety, for it will be given you to translate the books which shall be destroyed. And thus, I make an end. Aiy!
