Mulbe-Catalpia Saga Canto 1 - Agricola Cor
Chapter One:

"When the Heavenly-Sire Created the Lands,
Six fallen Beasts the Arch evil had sent"

 

As to maintain the lasting of the human beings, The Heavenly Sire created the twelve holy continents.

Among these twelve continents, the first one is the land of Tigertooth, then, are the lands of Foldislands, Pheonixpeak, Silverline, Goldchamber and Flowsandstan.
And there are the land of Mulbe-Catalpia, Islands, Outlands, Riveria, Marshria and Oceania.

At the beginning of the world, the lands existed as a whole. The disastrous division of the original continent is the punishment to the tyrant who was called "Ryu" - the grandson of Pacifius.

Pacifius was the leader of a tribe, that survived after the Heavenly Sire cleansed the land with a drastic flood. Pacifius was an unbelievably long-living man. When the flood came he was already 100 years old. After the flood, Pacifius lived for 900 years more, and so we call him "Millennium-Sire". But alas, when Ryu, the grandson of Pacifius rose to power, the people were as corrupted as the ancient people that lived before the Great Flood.

Ryu led his men to go against the way and commandant of the Heavenly Sire, and lived in the evil way. And he dared to compare himself with the One above, and entitled he himself "Co-Heavenly-Sire." He ordered his men to build innumerable huge stone pillars, and named them "sky-dividers" - that Ryu wanted to divide, or even disassembly the power of the Heavenly Sire. He also made a great variety of weapon, ordered his men to use the these weapons to slash on the "sky-dividers"

Many evil acts were done by Ryu and his fellowmen, but the Heavenly Sire was never disassembled by them, as He was never been able to be disassembled. Finally, Ryu was slaughtered under the weapons that he had made. After Ryu's death, The Heavenly Sire tore the continent into twelve pieces as a punishment to Ryu, of course including his followers.

But at the same time the Heavenly Sire spared some righteous again. They were the ones who did not follow the way of Ryu. Although they were the extreme minority, at least they were in a larger number than the survivors of the Great Flood before. These people spared by the Heavenly Sire lived their way just like their ancestor Pacifius, and were blessed by the One above, and got there own holy plan from the Heavenly Sire. They followed His way, and they lived according to His will. His will, is to let His people lived in the righteous way and avoid the evil one, and have plenty of their off springs who also follow His way and plan.

There is a very important thing that we must know: The land is separated because of the evil acts of Ryu, which is not by the will of the Heavenly Sire Himself. As He created we the human kind, He created us as a unity and never expected them to live in separation - in the contrary, He wants us to live as a whole, and have the innumerous offsprings. As the original piece of continent was polluted by the evil acts and blood poured by Ryu and his people, the continent had to be separated as to prevent Ryu's act from harming the innocent people.

The original continent was then divided. For the lives of the righteous people who had never followed Ryu, and for the healing of the corrupted land, The Heavenly Sire used his almighty power to make the Twelve Continents, and led these righteous people to the newly made continents to have their new lives.

The Holy Missions and the hidden fates of the 12 Holy Continents are listed below.

Tigertooth also means "mountains," As mountains there are just looked like the tigerteeth - sharp and densely grown out. Its number is "9". The .people of the land of Tigertooth keep the Heavenly Sire's head, skull, face, and of course, teeth.

Foldisland is the continent with islands on islands, and seas over seas. Foldisland is near to the continent of Tigertooth - only about 100 miles away from that hilly continent. Tigertooth is a born-intruder and Foldisland is a born-defender. So, war is inevitable between the two people of the two continents, as the people Tigertooth always attack on the people of Foldisland, and they have never co-operated even for one time. The number that the continent Foldisland received is '6". The people of Foldisland keep the Heavenly Sire's jaws, throat, neck and lips.

Pheonixpeak is also a land of mountains. But the mountains of Pheonixpeak are different from the Tigertooth ones. Mountains of Pheonixpeak are smaller. They together form two ranges and have seven main peaks. The number that Pheonixpeak received is "5", and the people of Pheonixpeak keep the Heavenly Sire's hair and limbs.

Pheonixpeak has a wide sea also. On the other side of the sea is another piece of the Holy Continents, which is called the Silverline, which means the land which produces milk. The number that Silverline received is "2". The people of Silverline keep the Heavenly Sire's breasts, and His cool blood in veins.

After crossing the 'Bitter Lake" which has the width of about one hundred miles, there is the continent of Goldchamber. Goldchamber means the land of honey making. Her number received is "1". The people of Goldchamber have the most important mission; they keep the heart of the Heavenly Sire, and also His boiling blood in the arteries.

One hundred miles westwards from Goldchamber is the continent of Flowsandstan. Flowsandstan has no mountains but rocks, no water but oil, and no fire but smoke. The number Flowsandstan received is "4". The people of Flowsandstan keep the Heavenly Sire's belly.

If we continue to go westward, after climbing over the mountain of "Sky-Pillar", we will reach the land of Mulbe-Catalpia that we received from the Heavenly Sire. "Sky-Pillar" has the other names such as "The Immeasurable". Although its height is almost immeasurable, there are totally five canyons which enable people to pass this invulnerable mountain. These five canyons were named as: "Twins", "Two-goats", Fulfillment', "Soul-pit' and "Golden-Rock". When our ancestor "GuQin" (This word means a kind of Mulbe-Catphian musical instrument, which produces sounds like a Harp") in his early years led his tribe which had exiled from their homeland Goldchamber to the new world of Mulbe-Catalpia. After GuQin had established his rulership, he sent his men to scout and measure on the five canyons and to clear them. These canyons were unblocked at these days.

Our land of Mulbe-Catalpia is different in compare with the other Holy Continents. As the boundaries of the other continents are creepy and irregular, our Mulbe-Catalpia looks like a perfect square - The northern boundary is 10000 miles away from the southern boundary, and same as the distance between our eastern and western boundary. People have a saying, that "No mountain stands at the west of the Sky-Pillar', as our land standing at the west of the Sky-Pillar, Mulbe-Catalpia does not have many high mountains in her territories, but she does have great rivers. The biggest of them are the River Harmonias and the River Qin. At the Plain of Beauty, River Harmonias divides into two, being called as the 'Left Harmonias' and the 'Right Harmonias". After the two Harmonias have ran for about 3000 miles, they meet again at the region around Jade Maple Forest, and the river will run 3000 miles more and goes down into the Southern Ocean.

The original name of River Harmonias is 'Sky Sweat". Our ancestor GuQin named this river "Harmonias" because of its special geographical characteristics, and also wanted to make this river as an icon of the harmony of the clans and tribes on the land of Mulbe-Catalpia.

And when River Qin passes through 'The Gap of Meditate" the sound of the river is just like a song performed by the musical instrument - Qin, and this "piece" is so beautiful that it is just like a masterpiece composed by the nature. So that is why River Qin gained its name.

With the enrichment of River Harmonias and River Qin, Mulbe-Catalpia fulfilled its name - on this land there are mulberry and catalpa. Also, there are blossoming flowers, maturing fruits, and all kinds of birds and beasts wandering over the lands and under the sky. Or we can say, from the land of Mulbe-Catalpia we can produce many many things which can match with the milk of Silverline and the honey of Goldchamber.

According to uncountable number of early records and researches, the number that Mulbe-Catalpa received is "10". Our mission is to keep the Heavenly Sire's spine, Pelvis and His breathes of harmony.

On the Southern Ocean there is another continent, called "Islands". Islands consists of eight main islands, and only the largest two of them have plains, which are Lunarisland and Sunisland. Lunarisland is on the north and Sunisland is on the south. The holy number that the land of Islands received is "7", and its people keep the secretions of the Heavenly Sire.

The boundary of Islands is on the Mild Ocean. On the west coast of Mild Ocean there is the continent called as the Outland. The people living on Outlands forms the races which are famous freedom-lovers in the world. They like to sing, they like to dance and they like to play; they love to laugh and cry. The number that Outland received is "3', and the people there keep the Heavenly Sire's tendon and flesh.

There is a huge peninsula on the West of Outlands, just like it was dropped from the sky, and its name is Riveria, stands between the continents of Outlands and Marshria. In Riveria there are about one hundred rivers - large and small ones, and they give this piece of continent its name. Riveria is a peninsula which looks like an inverted triangle, and actually river to it is not too important - their places are over-emphasized by the name of the continent indeed. There might be more than 40 races on Riveria, some are black, some are white, some are yellow and some are red. Riveria's number received from the Heavenly Sire is "8", and its people keep the Heavenly Sire's bones and skin.

And the last two pieces of continents are Marshria and Oceania.

Marshria is the largest continent, and Oceania has the largest ocean. The former met with our Mulbe-Catalpia on our northern boundaries. Rorus, Fourlegs, Goldchariots, Copperhorses, Rockpanthers, DemonRyos, Messhairs, StripWaists, Northbarbarians, and the Five Piles of Elves are the tribes we known who live on the land of Marshria. These tribes can never be bounded by any norms or traces. They are the most lovable, honorable guests and also the most horrible, notorious enemy to us. The holy number that Marshria received from the Heavenly Sire is "0", and its people keep the His senses.

Oceania surrounds all the other eleven continents. If we only measure on the size of the earth, Oceania is the smallest continent, but if we also measure its territories under the oceans, Oceania is the largest and most perfect continent among all the twelve. No one knows how many people live on Oceania - Some say almost none, but some say as much as the number of sand on the beaches.

Oceania does not receive its number, and no one is sure about what mission or fate the Oceanians received from the Heavenly Sire. Some say Oceanians received nothing, but others say that the Oceanians received a special mission - a mission which had doubled importance in compare with other Holy Continents - They might have two kinds of fate and mission, in extreme, they have, or not.

Finally, some one says, the Oceanians' mission is to keep the Heavenly Sire's own mysteries, and His innumerable secret properties.
On the day that Ryu died, it was the 1200th year since Pacifius became king. At the year, the continent was torn into pieces.

At that moment, most of the people live on the continent of Silverline.

When human was created by The Heavenly Sire at the beginning, humankind had only one root, and they had the perfect image of The Heavenly Sire. That means, the ancient human might have The Heavenly Sire's head, arms, body, legs and even His secret qualities and mysteries, though in this criteria the human might only had a bit. At the time when the sky and the earth were created, they were not yet separated.

The Heavenly Sire is the Unity, the sky is in the Unity, the earth is in the Unity, and unquestionably human are in the Unity. If we look into the Unity by the order, than we can say The Heavenly Sire firstly created the sky, and from the sky the earth is condensed by the will of Him. After this, The Heavenly Sire used the mud from the earth to make we the human. So, all men came from the same piece of continent, and at the beginning there was only one perfect continent. As we have mentioned before, it is not His plan to tear the original continent into pieces.

As Ryu died and the continent was torn apart, the people at that time mainly lived on the place where later became the continent of Silverline. But remember that doesn't mean the origin of human is the continent of Silverline.

When the continent was divided, the people had to be divided also. They lost the perfect image of The Heavenly Sire, and could only keep some parts of Him.

People went to their given lands, and then started their new lives. Time passed, and the people just thought that human has totally twelve origins. Actually, from the beginning till now, man has only one origin, just like there is only one Heavenly Sire.

The land can be divided, but sky cannot; the land is only divided for a certain time, and one day it will be reassembled; for the human, one day they will unite and live in harmony. If the people can know this truth, as Agricola Cor our great teacher said, they have to key to open the great mystery of the Twelve Holy Continents.

Ryu, at the end was killed by the weapons that he himself invented. When he fell, his followers fought within themselves. They used their weapons to attack on each other: 1200 people were slashed to death by sabers, 1200 were chopped to death by axes, and 1200 were pierced to death by spears. All the people killed in these battles had slashed on the "Sky-dividers" by their weapons.

On the land which later became Silverline, crimson blood stained the earth before this land produces milk like white jade. The battle between Ryu's people is known as "The Great Flow of Blood".

One of the men, who was assigned by The Heavenly Sire Himself not to follow Ryu, was LookCaellus - The Sky-looker. Before "The Great Flow of Blood", The Heavenly Sire sent his angel, to warn LookCaellus to lead his tribe to leave and go westward. After twelve days and nights, LookCaellus arrived at the land which later became the continent of Goldchamber, and this continent later was granted to LookCaellus and his offspring from The Heavenly Sire.

It is unknown that how the original continent was torn apart. Perhaps the land was torn by earthquake, landslides, floods or even tidal waves. Even today, we still do not know how The Heavenly Sire used the pieces of the continent to recreate the Twelve Holy Continents. All we know is that before the Great Flood, the earth is like a paradise, and after the Great Flood the land changed to quite another; After "The Great Flow of Blood", the land was divided and changed into a total different image.

And here are the offsprings of LookCaellus.

LookCaellus' son was Apiarius, Apiarius' son was FourBreastus, FourBreatus' son was Lonerus, and Lonerus had the sons such as DyeCaellus, and GuQin, who became the ancestor of we the Mulbe-Catalpians.

There is 1200 years passed between Pacifius and Ryu. LookCaellus lived at the era of Ryu, and from LookCaellus to GuQin, half of a 1200 years passed, which is 600 years. About 1200 years after GuQin was born, there came Agricola Cor. Within this 3000 years, as I am not a historian I cannot well present what happened. And if you ask me how many years are there between now and the time of Agricola Cor, and what actually happened, I think that I have no say, and please make reference to the two historical books written by Bluelash Trooplaws.

What I have written about are the history from the Great Flood and "The Great Flow of Blood" till now, and also the origin, missions, fates and the qualities of the Twelve Holy Continents. These such of things was taught by the great teacher Agricola Cor to my Ancestor Mochin Kang, and then Mochin Kang to FirmFaith Kang, FirmFaith Kang to HushMoral Kang, HushMoral Kang to VastLast Kang, VastLast Kang to StepRaised Kang, StepRaised Kang to BigEyes Kang, BigEyes Kang to my grandfather EverPeace Kang, EverPeace Kang to my father KeepStraight Kang, and KeepStraight Kang to me. Now I write them all down seriously and with my great admiration, and in the future I will teach these to my children (Actually I've kept some contents that I haven't written here). We, the Kang's family will have to keep the Secret and Great Mystery of the Twelve Holy Continents, through generations and generations until the reunion of the continents.
At that almighty time, the Secret and the Great Mystery of the Twelve Holy Continents might be resolved in front of the people of the whole world, as our great teacher Agricola Cor mentioned at his lifetime¡K


~~¡mQin of the Ages¡n, Chapter 1, by KepTyme Kang

If we are untaught, we will not know the language that is used in the message.

If it is not translated, we will not know the meaning of the message that is sent to us.

If it is unevaluated to us, we will not know what image it takes.

Does it mean, what is hid is the thing which is unwilling for us to know?

But, if it is hid too deeply, people might think that there is nothing.

The high mountain, the faraway horizon, the wide river, the deep sea, all the directions and elements, the unlimited universe¡K We have paid lots of effort to know them well, if till now we have not succeeded. More than these things, there lies also the secret of Heaven.

At the time when the Heavenly Sire had created the Twelve Holy Continents, he appointed twelve angels to take in charge of each of the continents, and to help the different races of the continents. Although such holy missions were given, The Heavenly Sire ordered this angel to hide, until the THAT time, when the people need help.

Before the Great Flow of Blood, the one who warned LookCaellus to escaped is the angel who takes in charge of the continent of Goldchamber that later formed.

LookCaellus did not tell the people much about this, so until now no one knows the image of the angel of Goldchamber took when he appeared in front of man.

When GuQin left the continent of Goldchamber, an angel was sent to give GuQin guidance. The angel is the one who is in charge of the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia.

The angel of Mulbe-Catalpia did evaluate himself in front of GuQin while he showed GuQin the territory of the given land. After he had grown up, GuQin became a leader who concerned about literal records, so he also left his word to tell his descendent how the angel of Mulbe-Catalpia looks like.

The image of the angel of Mulbe-Catalpia takes, is dragon.
Having the horns of domestic animals, teeth of beasts, claws of birds, scales of fishes, and the voice of man, it is dragon, the combination of the animals all over the world. The angel that GuQin had met took the image of a gentle and shining Jade Dragon.

It might be an evidence to show that how The Heavenly Sire specially loves the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia and the people living there. The Jade Dragon is not only an angel, but also an Archangel indeed.

But, we do not know if the magistrate-angel of the other continents are Archangels, or having the noble image like our Jade Dragon.

Angels do not have genders, and do not have siblings. They do not marry, so they will not have titles of husbands nor wives. But from the other point of view, all the angels are brothers and sisters, as The Heavenly Sire is the father of them. If the Heavenly Sire gives property and processions to one of them, the one will gain the title of marriages.

The Twelve Holy Continents are the properties, processions and vows of marriages of the twelve guardian angels. They received the command that in the critical time, they will have to sacrifice themselves to protect whom they are commanded to protect, just like the husbands will sacrifice themselves for their wives in dangers.

So we can know that the Jade Dragon and the continent of Mulbe-Continent gained the bond of marriage, and they give each other the title. In the great danger, The Jade Dragon has to sacrifice himself to protect his wife - the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia.

This is the bond, the title and the responsibility.

There is such an ode to the guardian angel of Mulbe-Catalpia:

The Ode to The Jade Dragon

O Jade Dragon! The Dragon of Jade!
May you guard the land The Heavenly Sire made!
You can change your size into great and tiny,
Concerns our lives and deaths in destiny.
You hide when we are doing just the right,
When we are lost you save us with your might.
So my fellowmen there's no need to fear
Because our Jade Dragon is always here!

As there are archangels and angels, that means there are rankings between them; as there is rankling between the angels, that means there must be angel who is at the highest rank.

The angel who is at the highest rank is called as the Chiefangel.

If we treat the angels as a group of brothers and sisters, Chiefangel is the eldest brother or sister of them; in the criteria of marriage, Chiefangel was the one who would be given the original, perfect continent made by The Heavenly Sire as his property. Also, the people living on the land would also be given to him as his wife and lieges - they are the original processions of Chiefangel.

But, Chiefangel was just like the tyrant Ryu. He let pride to occupy his heart, and he wanted to be equal to The Heavenly Sire, and then Chiefangel stepped onto the road of defection. Originally Chiefangel was the leader of the angels, and he had the highest power among them. He could take all images that he could think of, of course this included the image dragon.

My sons! When you taste the first succeed, you will face the temptation of the most ancient sin.
Remember, pride will lend to disloyalty, because your heart will not be able to be humble yourself, and it will never be able to obey His command, so who can the proud man follow? The one remained in his heart is himself only, so then he can only follow himself.
Perhaps, there is the ancient dragon of evil for him to follow. He can borrow its power and magic to satisfy his pride and vainglory. But actually that dragon is also a loser in front of The Heavenly Sire!


~~ Agricola Cor,
From the edition of Mochin Kang "The Wisdom of our Mentor", Canto II

In principio, the continent and the people would be given to Chiefangel as his processions.

This is the title, just like that the Chiefangel marries the land and the people.

Husband is the leader of the wife, but the husband also has the responsibility to protect his wife, but not torture her. When it is needed, the husband has to be sacrificed for his wife.

This is the title and the responsibility.

It is the thing that the ruler of the Heaven, the king on the earth and all the lieges must know.

But, Chiefangel never accepted it and King Ryu never thought of it. It is a great pity that many kings on the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia also overlooked that teaching.

If it was necessary, even The Heavenly Sire Himself would have to come down onto the earth and sacrifice for the people that he created!

After Chiefangel rebelled, he wanted to be like The Heavenly Sire, and have the holyrace that serve him. Holyrace is the other name for angels.

Chiefangel does not have to power to create, but he has the other kind of power which is also very powerful indeed. Among his former siblings of angels, by seduction, threatening, robbing, and by tricks, Chiefangel gathered a gang of holyrace to serve him. But since this, we can only call these fallen angels as "evilrace".

The Evil Dragon, or originally known as the Chiefangel regards 6 as his number. 6 is the half of 12. 12 is the number of perfect, and 6 is the sign of imperfect. The Evil Dragon divided his gang into 6 races, each has an Archevilrace as its leader. Under a race, there are 66 subraces, with an evilrace with a lower rankling as its subrace-leader.. Each subrace has 666 commands, each command has a commander. And each command has 6666 evilrace¡K

Beware!
In all parts of this world, there are demons, and their number is so huge!
~~ Agricola Cor,
Edition of Mochin Kang "The Wisdom of our Mentor" , Canto VI

After The Evil Dragon had gathered his troops, he managed to grab the processions that he didn't deserve to own.

How miserable we are! We become the bride of the Evil!

~~ Agricola Cor,
Edition of Mochin Kang "The Wisdom of our Mentor" , Canto VI

As there are twelve continents, The Evil Dragon sent his six Archevilraces to cruise on them. These Archevilraces are commanded to destruct the Twelve Holy Continents, to tempt the leaders on the lands, to torture the people there, and finally change the continents into wilderness, barren lands, the garden of the evilraces, and become the title and the procession that The Evil Dragon deserved.

One of the Archevilrace was ordered to cruise the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia. It leads his 66 subraces, 43,956 commanders, and 293,010,696 evilraces to cruise on Mulbe-Catalpia and her surrounding territories to find the corrupted rulers like King Ryu, and then control them and made them to do the evil acts. They have to change Mulbe-Catalpia into barren lands.

Since GuQin set up his rulership on the continent of Mulbe-Catalpia, the work of that Archevilrace has never ceased¡K
