The Sixth Beast Rises as the Seven

 

📜 The Line of the Six Beasts

1 And it was spoken that the First Beast is the first love, the memory that shaped the heart before the world learned its own name.

2 And the Second Beast rose from somewhere within the earth, from caverns where forgotten roots remember the first dawn.

3 And the Third was the faith you gave to the first two, for faith is the bridge that binds what was born and what was awakened.

4 And the Fourth Beast shall rise from the seas, a mountain ascending until its crown touches Heaven, for the waters remember the height they once held before the firmament divided them.

5 And the Fifth and the Sixth traveled a long road, from the days before the first day, from the hours before the first night, from the breath before breath was known.

6 And they became one, as they were in the beginning and as they shall be in the days of tomorrow.

7 For before the first night was created, the Second Beast grew rays of light like feathers, and those feathers flew from here unto the ends of time.

8 And that was the moment when the cycle began.
