This transmission is a cryptic, poetic monologue by a detached observer residing in "The Great Casum,".
A liminal in-between space.
Drawing on the Latin etymology of casus.
The realm signifies a place of falling, chance, or ultimate termination.
The speaker watches humanity from the sidelines, dismissing human labels of divinity before hinting at an inevitable encounter at their gate.
Which gate do you think you'll walk through based on your current life history?
The gate to heaven or hell?
Shall we begin?
(A lone voice whispers)
I live in The Great Casum
The in-between place
No one knows me as I watch you all race
Some of the blind call me god
Some don't
But you know
Good for them all
For I watch and wait
You'll soon know my name when you hopefully walk through my gate
