Aletheia

14
Aletheia is the transcendence over everything and the absolute truth behind all illusion, which is also referred to as The Unconcealed, The One or The Tao. It is an all-manifesting independent, unknown force, which encompasses the space between true reality and the delusion as the intrinsic nature of The Unconcealed is inherent to all. Past the delusion realm, all phantom bubbles and narratives, it is a force that exists beyond all names, conceptions, models, and descriptions which try to attain it. Narrators automatically create obscuras when they create a fictional setting, these obscuras which try to attain the nature of the one who is not obscured, meaning all obscuras just imitate the Unconcealed. These imitations are illusions that are concealed by the Ultimate Concealer, who is the prototype of all divine concepts and represents the highest reaches of human understanding. Aletheia, The Unconcealed, The One and Tao are all references to the ultimate truth behind all illusions, behind the ultimate concealer, and prior to the telos of the Void Emperor was the all-encompassing essence of the silent and empty nonmanifest world.
