Scroll 667 – The Illusion of Power

Gateway to the Emperor Series

‍

He who strikes others to feel strong

has already forgotten his source.

‍

Each wound dealt from pride, each domination forged from fear,

sows seeds of decay in the unseen body.

The flesh may posture, the voice may thunder,

but the soul shrinks with every act of hollow conquest.

‍

To harm another to feel powerful

is to carve away at your own essence—

bit by bit, breath by breath—

until what remains is a husk masquerading as a man.

‍

True power is not taken.

It is not forced, flaunted, or proven.

It is held—

quietly, steadily—

like a flame that does not flicker, even in the wind.

‍

But those who trade reverence for control,

who rise by pushing others down,

will find themselves feasting on shadows,

drunk on echoes,

forgotten by the very light they once bathed in.

‍

What you inflict returns—not always in form,

but always in frequency.

The energetic realm is just,

and no scream, no act, no cruelty

goes unfelt in the web of life.

‍

He who harms to feel sovereign

is already dethroned.

He walks not with presence,

but with absence.

‍

And so I say:

Build your power in truth.

Hold your strength in stillness.

Let your presence bless,

not break.

‍

For only then

will the realm within

crown you as its rightful keeper.

‍

🜂 If this scroll stirred something within you...

You’re standing at the gate.

The Emperor Series begins beyond this point.

Only enter if you're ready to face yourself,

reclaim your energy,

and walk with sacred power.
