Documents from Between

 Documentation and classification have always been the way of Between. In the Forest of Sskaduwee, way further than humans can reach, Lyrehc continues her work in trying to understand the beauty of all creation, achieved by Divine Design.

News from Between: Walking Trees walk again!

It has come to the attention of workers in the Sskaduwe Forests that the walking tree phenomenon has been sighted and documented near the endangered forest.  Previously thought to be a ‘wild coast myth’ the excitement among scientists is bordering on manic. Sighted crouched on a rock near the shore ‘Ashdikfju’ (as the walking tree has been named) is apparently showing no signs of stress.  (How do scientists know is a walking tree is stressed if they’ve never seen one)?


Rare Ebony Ashmnerfish skeleton found on north wild coast 29.3424° S, 31.3725° E.

Believed to be a result of the landslides on the outer continental shelf and resultant slope along the Mid-Atlantic coast. Indicates potential for tsunamis that might have devastating effects on human populated coastal areas.

The Appearance of the Vetruvian Man -The Authentic Massacre of the Innocent Image # 116 -

It was becoming increasingly obvious to Leonardo that Vitruvius was trying to give him another key to between. The superimposition of the figure kept bluring, and he always saw it on a vessel he did not recognize. (Time would later reveal that the vessel in question was actually
Zhangsun’s Funery Urn (See Cut-Up Painting # 83)
The artist who would later - much later - receive this information would have to interpret it as best she knew how.  Leonardo had the feeling  her attempts would be clumsy and he was relieved he would not be around to witness her cut-up painting, as the information appeared clutsy to him too. But in any event, he sat down on the 5thAugust 1490, by the light of a flickering candle and started his version of the Vetruvian Man.  To his great surprise, he learned that 8 heads make up the ideal human body. This was quite astounding to him as there were very few such specimens currently walking the streets of Florence.   In mirror script (done so for fear of discovery by the Moorish Darwish, he hid the following clue:

Similarly, in the members of a temple there ought to be the greatest harmony in the symmetrical relations of the different parts to the general magnitude of the whole.

The Traveller was astounded - THAT was the clue to the unstable supported bridge beams - the proportions were incorrect! She pulled the Red Giraffe away from his pink gin cocktail and said  “WE NEED TO GO”!

O My HAT!!!

Now THIS was going to cause a problem, but everyone had decided and Lyrech felt that after The Choice there was no need to keep the clue. Better it be blown though the world - perhaps more pressing questions would be answered this way.  The pieces were to be secreted away to The Red Fox, and sent to very specific people who perhaps would know what to do with the pieces on receipt.

MORE keys!

Its been a REALLY long time since anyone has heard anything from the Bhubezi Women. So long in fact, do you even remember they exist?  Quite a lot happened after the Traveller, the Red Giraffe and Lammassu entered the Lion Gate - the main entrance of the Bronze Age Citadel of Mycenaean. There had been just a slight fhhoop sound and suddenly they were confronted with a row of French ultramarine/Prussian blue glass vases. A weird voice said “Choose only one and choose wisely”.  Cross pollination was already happening at the Borders of Between and SO MUCH TIME HAD ELAPSED! Plus, no one had noticed that a Scorplio had travelled with them, but he seemed quite calm and more curious than anything.

Where things fall apart, but don't, they cant...

So, we left the Traveller, the Red Giraffe and Lammassu at the Gate of all Nations, with a key in hand. The creatures from between were anxious and Lammassu knew it was just a matter of time before the pollination process needed to keep the Bhubezi genetic stock clean would die.
That would create a problem in finding the third last key. Luckily, their next stop was the Lion Gate - the main entrance of the Bronze Age citadel of Mycenae, erected during the 13th century BC in the northwest side of the acropolis.

Historians believe this to be the sole surviving monumental piece of Mycenaean sculpture, as well as the largest sculpture in the prehistoric Aegean.  It is the only monument of Bronze Age Greece to bear an iconographic motif that survived without being buried underground, and the only relief image which was described in the literature of classical antiquity, such that it was well known prior to modern archaeology blah blaah blaaalh. Homer mentions Mycenae, and well he should (or is it he?) [Bearing in mind its possible that ‘Homer’ could represent a group of poets, or the imaginary author of a traditional body of oral myths].

{If Homer is to be considered a mythical character, the legendary founder of a guild of rhapsodes (professional performers of epic poetry) called the Homeridae, then "Homer" means the works attributed to the rhapsodes of the guild, who might have composed primarily in a single century or over a period of centuries}.

Where was I, I lost my train of thought (Lyrehc here) {sorry, one thought} - [The time gap in the chain is bridged by the scholia or notes, on the existing manuscripts, which indicate that the original had been published by Aristarchus in the 2nd century BCE. Librarian of the Alexandrian Library, he had noticed a wide divergence in the works attributed to Homer, and was trying to restore a more authentic copy. He had collected several manuscripts, which he named: the Sinopic, the Massiliotic, etc. The one he selected for correction was The Koine].

The Koine is NOT just the common language of the Greeks from the close of the classical period to the Byzantine era or a common language shared by various peoples; a lingua franca, it is a set of books, which was penned by myself well before the bridges were problematic. They are guarded by 8 Scorplio - quite shy creatures, nocturnal and highly dangerous. They were first bred in Africa, close to the river Zambezi by She. Initial stock came from the mountains along the Indus River.

Pehernefer

 One of the "Great ten of Upper Egypt" (Egyptian: Wer-medj-shemaw)
He who's under the head of the king (Egyptian: Heri-tep-nesw) (But this is incorrect it should be ‘queen’ - you can’t expect archaeologists to get it ALL right).
Overseer of the treasuries (Egyptian: Imi-ra per-hedj)
Overseer of all royal works (Egyptian: Imi-ra kat-nebet net-nesw)
Overseer of the royal granaries (Egyptian: Imj-ra schenut-nebut inet-nesu)

You can be sure the list goes on (and on) - titles were flung about on the wind. Nothing is known about Pehernefer's family (that’s because he didn’t have one - except for the Lammasu tribe who took him in after he was abandoned in the Western desert (that’s how he got that title - I told you titles were blown in).
So what does all this have to do with ‘endings and beginnings’? Not much really simply because the Bhubezi Women are STILL trying to find the keys so that nothing ends - or begins in fact.

Pehernefer had this gift thing, given to him by Hatshepsut - who you should all know by now is a Bhubezi  Woman - that enabled him to triple-read any scroll given to him. 

He could see the current writing, the history of the writing and its place in the future. Right now, sitting at 4pm with an old scroll found (forward time) at the Alexandrian Library, he could hear  the same words Lammasu heard -   the Red Giraffe and Traveller were at his elbow, pulling him back to sanity.
“GET A GRIP”!
“We have the key”!
