Existence – a vague word that man uses to describe his manifestation. Throughout my years, I’ve seen what and who man is. For all we know, we exist yet we do not fully understand why we exist. The fools who dress themselves in robes and see their selves holy believe that the creator lies in the Eve Gate – who ironically destroyed man aeons before me.

Within my veins run the blood of monks, priests, or whatever people call them nowadays. Achurs of today were born and raised to unquestioning faith. Unfortunately, an Achur such as I, an Achur before them, never learned such foolishness. Yet I regret that I never was a fool for in my veins is indeed of a monk.

Thus as I forever gaze in the sky, the question of existence lingers within me.

Evolution – a biologic process of an organism to be a higher form as a means of survival. Through the centuries, Man seem to be incapable of evolution. Perhaps man is the endpoint of evolution or perhaps it is no longer necessary for man evolves at will in the extension of his creations. Man, no longer bound by time and space.

Perhaps man is the creator of himself. Man strived to be gods. To be in dominion of his kind and desired to be beyond man. Hence, man became immortal through his unrelenting pursuit. In terrestrial worlds, there are oceans where a certain creature thrive that is naturally immortal, capable of being forever young – jelly fish. Though granted such gift, the creature is merely an animated protein, devoid of a soul and left to forever drift along the currents blindly. Man, a similar creature, devoid of a soul, drifts through space, blinded by his will to be a god.

The Eve Gate, a god so revered upon, infested with scavengers. As the scribes tell us, it used to be a passage. A passageway towards Home or more likely heaven. Then that very god decided to imprison us forever in a purgatory known as New Eden. The consensus of which is that Man was seen sinful by the god that he made him accursed. To be undying and forever lead himself to destruction. Man wanted so much to reach further than he was that he fell for he can no longer stand within his two legs. Yet as he stumble, Man as stubborn as he is, tries again. Never realizing that he is no god.

Yet, even if the Eve Gate never closed, I do believe no such god nor heaven exists beyond it. For where there is man, such world will be a mirror image as it is today.

Though I am but of little importance to this world, I would like to believe there is such a God. A God – unwritten in text, unpreached by fools in robes, and of course, wise enough not to commit the mistakes of a man-god. Maybe heaven does exist but at least never in this time nor space.

Though it is sad that man may never know for he is forever bound in this world.
