The Allfather
He was there when the mortal races crawled out of the mud, He watched over them when the gods were still babes in the cradle of heaven, He was there when the Abyss had an end, He corralled the Lords of the Elemental Chaos into forming the Material Plane. He is the God of Creation who stands above all.
He is a loving god who sees good in all of creation and deeply wants to be loved and worshipped. However, He doesn’t force that worship or advocate violent coercion because He values free will. “You cannot love someone if there is no other choice.”

You shall have no other gods before Him. For He is a jealous god and Lord of all.
This command is generally interpreted as needing to acknowledge that the Allfather is the God above whatever other gods you venerate.Remember Creation for it is holy, any who act in order to creation act in His image are blessed by Him.
The act of creating something is considered holy, building a house, forging a sword, a child braiding a friendship bracelet, brewing beer or cooking a meal. There’s a lot of leeway in what worshippers consider creating.Honor your elder’s for they have walked His world longer and know the ways of it.
Care for and respect the elderly and listen to their counsel. They’ve been around for a while, they probably know a thing or two about how the world works.Do not harm the innocent for they are His most beloved.
Don’t hurt people who don’t deserve it. This is one of the most difficult to interpret as there isn’t a strict definition of innocence from Him. It is usually interpreted by societal norms. All of the Dictations are interpreted through a lense that values free choice. While freedom is not one of the Four Dictations it is a recurring theme throughout His scriptures that is often paraphrased along the lines of, “It is better to choose than to force.”Remove these ads.
