An excerpt from the Libro Daemonia. Written by
Father Miguel, Inquisitor Exemplaris
From time to time, the Inquisition receives reports of a cult
dedicated to the worship of a drowned god, dead, yet
deathless, whose practitioners lurk in the primitive and
remote regions of the world. They are obsessed
with the stars, their alignments, and the rituals that might awaken
their god from his deathless slumber. Mostly,
these are disbelieved and dismissed as the fanciful tale of explorers
eager to embellish their voyages that have become all too
monotonous. But, even when such tales are given
a degree of credibility, it is certainly not thought that such a cult
could exist in the civilized world. The less enlightened might
imagine a causal link between the firelight rituals they perform under
an idol's stoney gaze and the occurrence of natural phenomena, but not
those acquainted with the works of Aristotle, Saint Aquinas, and
Bacon. Where such a cult is whispered to exist on the continent,
the educated laity either dismisses the rumors out of hand or
assumes it is merely the emergence of a more typical Satanic coven
with which the Roman church is experienced in combatting.
But, now, without the rigorous training in the occult the Inquisition's
Chief Inquisitors underwent in years past, even the most learned of
the Roman priests may do the same. But the conflation of the dead
yet deathless god with the Christian devil is a fundamental
mistake. Worshipers of the Christian devil revere a fallen
prince of angels for whom the human race is so significant
that strategizing its corruption and damnation consumes
his mind. This is in accordance with a central pillar of
Christian theology, the importance of humanity. God
Almighty is fixated on humanity's salvation, and his opponent,
Satan, obsessed with its destruction.
For those who profess the Christian faith, the greatest disruption of
thought is, perhaps, not that the devil might success in dragging
humanity into eternal damnation, but that humanity might be of
utterly no consequence in the universe at all. The faithful
often consider, right, wrong, Heaven, and Hell
but few minds are prepared to grapple with the vastness of the universe and the
profound indifference with which humanity and its civilization
might be regarded by its other beings. Perhaps even more
disturbing is the logical conclusion of that line of thought ---
the irrelevance of the self and therefore the individual human soul
upon which Christian thought places such immeasurable value.
Yet this is a central tenant, if it can be called such,
of those dedicated to the dead yet deathless god.
Humanity is not only inconsequential to the uncaring mechanical
process of the universe, but also in the machinations devised in the
unfathomable intellects of its greater beings.
Whatever the drowned god ponders in his dreams, it is not
the fate of human souls. Those few who have studied this cult
often believe that worshiping such a god must be rooted in
a derangement of the mind. After all, who would worship
that which believes him to be of no consequence? This god beneath
the water neither deserves our worship as does the Christian
god, nor is he envious of it, as is the Christian devil.
This is what makes the cult particularly difficult for the mother
church. Whereas devil worshippers so desire power, beauty,
and riches in this world that they are willing to make pacts with
demons and sacrifice their souls after death, the cultists
of the dead god revel in nihilism, do not value the self,
and in fact have annihilation as the objective. It is therefore
difficult to find leverage over them.
