The Second Tenet

"There is a Door to the Shadow of the Self"
The Nameless, Summer 2025

The Second Tenet derives from the Second Rift of the narrative.

II.
The Second Tenet
Iblis in Iblis is the
Shadow of the Self

In the Second Rift, Iblis is made to face himself in a mirror, compelled to reflect on his choices, cursed and exiled, wed to infamy, and named for his state.

In it lies everything that is hidden in the mind, heart, and soul.

The Second Tenet is that Iblis in Iblis is the Shadow of the Self.
