I Require Further Clarification

Argent Hand,

While I agree to the validity of the majority of your previous clarification, I find one key element to be contradictory.

Amid your discourse about the immutability of truth, you made the following statement, "...Truth is not subjective. It is the domain and purview of the Lightbringer, and I'm afraid it takes more than a capital 'T' to claim dominion of it."

In it, you unabashedly subject truth to the authority of Lady Aurora. In light of the rest of your argument, this assertion is exceedingly ironic since if truth, however you punctuate it, is subject to any lord than it likewise ceases to be objective and immutable. If the statement is true, then the entire concept of truth is relegated to Her whim.

If this is not the case, and I would wholly argue it not to be, then truth is neither Her domain nor within Her purview. She may champion it, strive to find it, or seek to enlighten others to it, but She cannot be superior to it, and in all actuality would be Herself subject to it.

It is a high and noble calling to seek truth, as taken up in time immemorial by the Dark Father and instilled in the Crown by Him during its founding. However, the knowledge and truth that both the East and West attain will forever be narrow and limited lest they open their eyes to the broad design unfolded in the Multiverse.

Look up to the heavens mortals, and feel the breadth and width of the Great Work rush upon you. Truth transcends Creation and its self appointed guardians.
