559 - 901 AD - The first and most immediately punishing encounter with true darkness is endured and futilely suppressed by humankind for some time.

"The clash that would take place within the depths of man's spirit had revealed not only great potential, but also an equally demanding evil bestowed by the inherent nature of correspondence with the godhead. A vessel of both void and creation, man began to learn that he is his own greatest enemy. Time spent in the belly of the beast digests all desire to create and twist forms - enough deprivation of sensory attachment to reveal that the dichotomy between the blinding light and the all-encompassing shadows are not so different in the finality of their inclinations. After all, Satan himself was to be The Father's most beloved; good and evil to be the best of friends, darkness and light - perfect counterparts, ebb and flow - an ideal and exciting opposition. All with a beloved child trapped between to observe the perfection of the dance."
