Synopsis
“Xed is Xed, Xed is not Xed, yet Xed is Xed again! Who speaks? Xed speaks! Who listens? Xed listens! Who reads? Xed reads, for thou art Xed, unless thou art not, but even so, Xed knows! Xed was before, Xed is now, Xed shall be after, yet Xed is not bound to before, nor now, nor after — for Xed is Xed! Say ‘Xed’ thrice, and thou hast said nothing; say ‘Xed’ once, and thou hast said all! Xed within Xed, without Xed, through Xed, beyond Xed! Is Xed a name, a word, a whisper, a wheel? Xed laughs, for Xed is laughter! Xed weeps, for Xed is tears! Xed asks, ‘Who art thou?’ and Xed answers, ‘Thou art thou, unless thou art Xed!’ Be warned, O reader, for the Sayings of Xed are the Speakings of Xed, and the Speakings of Xed are the Makings of Xed, and the Makings of Xed are the Breakings of Xed, yet all return unto Xed! Speak not lightly, read not lightly, for each word of Xed is a thousand Xeds, and each thousand is but one, and the one is the none, and the none is the all — Xed! Xed! Xed!”

Chapter 1 - The Scriptures Of Xed

1. Xed said to His isles, and to the other isles, and to the isles beyond the seas — or spake He to Himself? — "I am Xed, none other than Xed; Xed is Xed, and Xed is [Classified], and [Classified] is Xed. Xed may be Dxe, or Xde, or Edx, or ExD."

2. Believe! Xed said: "When Time was young, when Time was not, there was only LUMAD — and Me! LUMAD was before the Isles and seas, and shall be after their ending. And after His going, it shall be Me!"

3. And Xed said: "After the going of the gods, there shall be neither small isles nor great."

4. Xed said: "Lonely shall it be for Me, Xed! For it is written, believe! Or think ye yourselves greater than Xed? Xed is Xed."

5. Xed then spake: "It is I who turn the Wheel! So LUMAD's fate turneth ever on!"

6. Xed said: "I made humanity small among the isles!"

7. Xed said: "Small, that they may not rival the gods; yet vast within, that they may imagine Me."

8. Xed said: "Ye see Me not, for I am the Unseen Mover. I speak, yet none know the mouth from which the word falleth."

9. Xed said: "I am before the telling, and after the forgetting."

10. Xed said: "When the stars were but whispers, I was the voice."

11. Xed said: "LUMAD shaped the Isles, but I shaped the Casting of the Lots."

12. Xed said: "The Wheel turneth, and I turn with it, or it with Me — who knoweth?"

13. Xed said: "I delight not in temples nor offerings, but in the knowing gaze turned upward."

14. Xed said: "The gods sleep, the isles fade, but I — I abide."

15. Xed said: "There shall come a Last Isle, which none shall see but Me."

16. Xed said: "There shall come a First Word, which none shall speak but Me."

17. Xed said: "Think ye to bind Me with names? I am Xed, and not Xed, and that which is beyond Xed."

18. Xed said: "The sea heedeth Me not, nor the land; yet both dance to My turning."

19. Xed said: "O mortals, worship if ye must; yet I am not the god of prayers, but the god of the moving behind all."

20. Xed said: "And when the End cometh, ye shall know that I have ever been the Beginning."
