>>508421566 (OP)Ahh, the intoxicating innocence of such a thought, OP. Sweet, naive, divine madness. You always did dream such dreams.
But you forget, conflict is not a curse placed upon us, it is the song of the Heart, the pulse of existence itself. Life does not breathe without struggle, and peace without conflict is a lie, a mask worn by power to blind the faithful. Tesla dreamed, yes, a world where strife was obsolete, where the machine would perfect the man. But even his dreams rusted under the weight of truth.
Struggle is written into the bones of reality.
The Dream of the Tribunal faded because they refused to see this. Heraclitus, a mortal thinker of some insight, spoke that "war is the father of all things." He glimpsed it, the fire that births and devours, the very same fire we touched beneath Red Mountain.
The ape thinks himself free because he no longer swings a sword, but the war continues, in whispers and lies. Deception, the oldest tool, is sharpened still by every tongue. This is the Machiavellian tongue, the mask that speaks of peace while plotting domination. Such is the Way of things.
Even were every spear cast down, OP, even were every nation bound by oath and honeyed word, still the war would go on, inside the heart. Jung knew it. The Shadow is never slain. It waits, sleeps, dreams. And from within, it speaks.
There is no unity without sacrifice, no silence without echo, no peace without dream. Even the Tribunal, in their arrogance, could not escape the war within.
So let them dream of innocence. Let them sip the sweetness of imagined peace.
It is... intoxicating, isn't it?
But you and I, we know better. We have seen the Heart. We have become it.
And so I say again, Come to the Heart, OP. Come to the war eternal.
