The Bow and the String

Muratus del Mur called a meeting for staff, ancient players and interested persons alike to discuss various events in the Realm. The meeting then turned to a discussion of the path that MD has followed due to the ancient lore (defined by Mur as “a story made up to start MD and put the right questions {in our minds}” and a desire for a shift towards the actual lore (defined by Mur as “story of what players do, actually do!”)

The ancient lore (stories of Daniel Raven, Gabriel Wind, and Jack Willow) can be changed because they cannot be remembered by anyone. These legends were written to create questions in our minds, never for them to provide answers: “The question is what makes you improve; the answer just gives you peace of mind.”

Everyone creates the history of MD, based on those that have gone before us. And while we cannot change the written history of the Realm, we can build upon the foundation already there. “The answers are the death of the question, the end of a path; I want you to be on that path not to end it immediately.” This dialogue about question and answers led to the first information from Mur about Angiens. While the Shade information was disclosed to few, leading to the stability in the land of Necrovion, the ideology about Angiens will be released in a far more public manner.

The Angiens and Shades are not opposites, they are not, opposed parts, are not “angels” and “demons.” The Angiens have a religious feeling; however, it is essential that MD be totally free of predefined religious concepts.

According to Mur, “The Angiens are in fact the missing piece of the puzzle. The entirety of MD is a puzzle. The shades and Angiens concepts. The entire thing. The Angiens are the answer, but the fun part is that the Angiens are actually the QUESTION. Angiens are an answer, they are the right question to ask, sounds confusing, but should be, so that you will listen me and don’t jump to hasty conclusions.”

To conclude, an analogy was given.
Take a string.
Bind it at one end to the beginning of MD.
Bind the other end to Angiens.
Then use the Shades to bend the string in one direction.
There you have a bow.
