69 – The Dark Council

Dangerous Games

As discussed in a previous entry, there are plenty of councils out there. I was running into them, in my Mind Travels, even before I knew of their existence.

One that kept on coming up was The Dark Council.

I had never heard of the councils, but in 2004, I met a lady from New Zealand (for those who have read I am The Phoenix, she was Aurora.) who worked for a Being who called himself “Dragon Heart”.

What I didn’t know at the time was that this was the god of Chaos, Apep. I think that Aurora did not know that either. I doubt she would have believed me, in any case.

She claimed she was dealing with the council on my behalf. If I had remembered who I was and who they were, I’d never have put myself into such a dangerous situation, but fortunately, I had good protectors. I now know that this was the Dark Council.

When it comes to the councils, this one was possibly the most dangerous one out there.  So many sought out their help and became trapped by their agreements.

Clause

This was because, The Dark Council had a clause in their contracts that all contracts and agreements were valid while the council existed in its current form. 

The contracts were watertight. (Kudos to those who had the skill to write them so well.) The only loophole was for the contracts to be broken, they would have to cease to exist, if only for a moment.

The only way that was likely to happen was for The Dark Council to disband. Something that could only occur with the consensus of all the members.

What made this unlikely to ever happen was that many of the core members had no reason to do this. It would not only mean a great loss of power, but all the contracts, resources and bindings that were connected to the council would be lost.

From what I can remember, that’s around one hundred and twenty thousand earth years or so of work. It had become an unstoppable juggernaut.

So… how to stop something so powerful and massive? This was the question I pondered around mid-2016.

The Deception

By that point, the Dark Council had come up too many times for me.  Many people told me stories of how they were summoned before it and given orders. (One even told me they were ordered to spy on me.) The main issue was that they were trapped and had no choice but to obey.

The council also tried to trick me into letting them rebirth me. That is what Aurora said she negotiated with them, on my behalf. But it was a great deception.

The story is recounted in full in my I am The Phoenix book, but in a nutshell, I was just starting to come to terms with being The Phoenix, and she was negotiating with them to fully restore my powers.

Rebirth

What I didn’t know was that this power already belonged to me and was already mine to command. They simply were using my ignorance.

During a Mind Travel, I was taken by a dragon to stand before them, and they asked me if I wanted to be rebirthed as The Phoenix. In my trust, and ignorance, I said yes, but for some reason, no deals were struck, and nothing ever came of it.

Technically, no deal could have been struck, as I was already the holder of The Phoenix Title. I mentioned this to Omen at some point, and he laughed. He told me that they were trying to assimilate me and make me their own. As you can imagine, I wasn’t happy and even somewhat annoyed

So regardless of what the god Mars claimed, they were the ones who made the first move to betray me.

Negotiations

In mid-2016, I found myself trying to negotiate with them for the freedom of a friend. Ecclasia had been betrayed and held captive by them.

Like Omen, she was bound to this planet. For ten thousand years, she was put into bodies without any loss of awareness.

Generally, when I am trying to strike a bargain of that nature, I can feel when I am successful. In this case, though, I was making absolutely no headway.

They considered Ecclasia way too valuable to let go of and weren’t interested in anything I had to offer.

However, that didn’t stop me.

When there is something I need to work out, I will hammer away at it like a dog chewing on a bone.

Phoenii are tenacious, if nothing else.

I investigated the council’s origins in my mind travels and pondered if there was any way of stopping them. If there was, I knew I had to do it soon as things felt like they were reaching a critical point and I had an urgent feeling time was finally starting to run out.
