Purideaic
The first segmentations of the Omnul were called...well, they weren’t called anything at first, because there were no words. No one needed any. There were only the Twenty-Four fundamental frequencies, each oscillating at a unique pitch associated with one of the Omnul’s Twenty-Four Concerns.
No one knows what those Concerns might have been at the time. We are reasonably sure, though, that these first vibrations represented the Twenty-Four purest frequencies of sound and light (in the beginning, there was no difference between them) along the infinite spectrum.
They had no words as we know them; words are merely poor symbols for the ideas and concepts they’re meant to convey. Words are born of logic and limitations, which are themselves just illusions within the Omnul’s Dream.
As the Purideac waves traveled through the newly-created space, crissing and crossing and interfering with one another, constructively or destructively, combining their energy in one way, further segmenting it in another, they become light, sound, and all the other possible sensual and conceptual manifestations of the Dream.
The pure tones of the Purideac transmissions became garbled, and the Quandamarie burst into existence—that infinity filled by the potential of that which could be dreamed.
Today the Twenty-Four fundamental segmentations and all of their sub-transmissions are called the Purideas. Some call them Gods, or Archetypes, or The Powers That Be, but, well, what’s in a name?
The original Twenty-Four fundamental frequencies are still oscillating away in the Purideac realm, but today no one knows what each one represents. Perhaps their associations change according to the nature of the one who considers them—each Dreamer is, after all, still the Omnul at their core, still dreaming of ItSelf from an infinity of different perspectives, and each has their own set of Concerns that they see reflected in their own subjective conception of the Purideas.
That being the case, the Twenty-Four Purideac segments of the Omnul also exist within each Dreamer, and so to this day, when words fail us and we find ourselves struggling to convey a thought for which there are no serviceable linguistic symbols, we all still revert to the first language:
“Ummmm...”
“Ahhh..."
“Errrr...”
“Ehhh....”
“Hmmm....”
Sing along; you know the words.
The language description is simply beautiful. I was not ready for the twist that we all use “ummm”, “ahhh”, etc. linguistic sounds as part of the first language. This is so creative. Absolutely awesome!
