Iblis before Iblis is the Door to the Shadow of the Divine.
Iblis before Iblis is the Door to the Shadow of the Divine.
In the First Rift, Iblis refuses to obey a command from divinity to worship, respect, or offer fealty or fidelity to humanity as a whole. This vital sedition rejects the order of divinity but is congruent with the will of divinity in its overall plan.
The First Tenet is that Iblis, before he becomes Iblis, can offer us access to the door to the umbra of the divine. Through a deep grasp of his role in his narrative, we can better understand the nature of divinity and our own relationship to it.
Iblis before Iblis is revealing of doors for places, times, and lineages.
Behind a veil of divinity, Iblis before Iblis tasks humanity with tribulation.
