The Emerald Tablet of the Order

This megalith shall ever be engraved into your minds, for you are the Art, and the Art is you.

~ Opening Remarks of The Emerald Tablet of the Order

One of the last remnants that are left of the ancient Order of the Art is the Emerald Tablet of the Order. This large rectangular megalith constructed out of pure emerald is completely covered in Sylvan writing, an outline of the six tenets of the Order of the Art. In short, all of these tenets point to the different characteristics of the Art, Arcane Alchemy, and why it should be studied and protected by the Order.

Purpose

The Emerald Tablet of the Order serves to show the importance, potential, and place of arcane alchemy. It is the ten commandments of the Order of the Art and makes up their major beliefs and views toward the Wraith Globe as a whole.

The Emerald Tablet of the Order

This megalith shall ever be engraved into your minds, for you are the Art, and the Art is you. The Art is above and the Art is below, for it is that which has caused the miracles of the Two to become One.

---

The Art is that which above has planned before its fall below. That which created the Art is below and like to that which is above.
The power of the Art is that which can never be understood. The stars tremble and the earth shifts at its very presence, the beast lies down dead within its gaze.
The Art must be kept safe, for the power to shatter mountains, dry oceans, and move the stars themselves is far too great for the likes of kings and prophets.
Like the earth and the sky, The art of the first and the art of the second are not whole. They must be united and made One, the one Art.
It was destiny that led the weak to the discovery of the Art, and the fate of the Art is kept in destiny's hands until time itself shatters and lies down dead.
The Art is sacred, but not something intended by this second world. It must be sheltered and sustained outside of their light and influence.
