The humans drive them until they break or dissipate for lack of Gnosis. But we respect the spirits who thrive within technology. All Machines Day celebrates our dependence on the Machine and our reverence toward technological spirits. The festival begins with Vulcans Day on the preceding Friday and ends with Sister Science Day on the following Saturday, although the moot itself takes place on the Ides of March, the 15th, each year. On this day, we clean and repair our machinery from the early morning until the evening. This includes the cleansing of both home and office with rites and rituals. As the sun sets, we power up our machinery and invite the spirits to frolic with us through a festival of light and sound. The festivities go into the Penumbra where we commune with the technological spirits who aid us in our daily lives. When the celebration finally dies down, a peaceful calm settles within both the structure that houses the main festivities and the Penumbra that surrounds it.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-lstat-lists field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">LStat Lists</div> <div class="field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://www.darkmetal2039.com/taxonomy/term/1154" hreflang="en">glass_walkers</a></div> </div> </div> Mon, 19 Oct 2020 07:12:00 +0000 Wyrd 6466 at https://www.darkmetal2039.com https://www.darkmetal2039.com/info/rites/alteration-generations <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Alteration of Generations</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span>Wyrd</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2020-10-19T03:12:00-04:00" title="Monday, October 19, 2020 - 03:12" class="datetime">Mon, 10/19/2020 - 03:12</time> </span> <div class="field field--name-field-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-inline clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Category</div> <div class="field__item"><a href="https://www.darkmetal2039.com/stats/category/rites" hreflang="en">Rites</a></div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-subcategory field--type-string field--label-inline clearfix"> <div class="field__label">Subcategory</div> <div class="field__item">mystic</div> </div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>The ancient lupus among the Children of Gaia beheld the “eternal heat” of humankind and realized that this ability could vastly increase their breeding capability as well as enhancing the pleasures of mating.
