2.2 The Children of Mu

Book II: The Scrolls of Lemuria
Chapter 2 – The Children of Mu

After thinking about what went wrong with the Hyperboreans, I figured maybe relying solely on the mortal Adam and one of Gaia’s creatures to try to produce an intelligent race was a miscalculation by me. Perhaps the mix simply lacked enough divine ‘juice?’ With this in mind I considering enlisting a bit of help from my angelic brethren again. I’d previously used them to successfully destroy Gaia’s creations so I figured why not go back to that well and get some help with my breeding experiments too? 

Thankfully there were a few lumenarcs hanging out in The Middle Plane who were interested in more than just destroying things. They also weren’t completely incompetent – which is to say they didn’t immediately poo-poo my offer to breed with humans.

The first to agree to help me was a fallen angel formerly known as Araquiel in Illyria, but who your kind would later know as the god Pan. 

In fact, Pan was perfect for my designs because of one very important characteristic he possessed: he was an incredibly fertile deity whose sexual appetites were legendary! And that was exactly what I needed for my experiment. 

“Take a look at this beauty.” I showed the woman Lilith to Pan – having captured the girl, I cast a spell on the woman to make her appear irresistible…and in heat. I had also played around with her internal anatomy a bit while she was sleeping – trying to make the most of her reproductive abilities.

At first things looked good – Pan took the bait and coupled with Lilith – many times over; Pan’s power was so strong that after each “session,” Lilith gave birth almost immediately to multiple sets of twin partially humanoid creatures, all fully grown. I say part human because there was another part that wasn’t – for whatever reason these tiny men had a ‘lemuresque’ quality about them – big eyes, fur, tails and more. Where all those traits came from, I had no idea.

Lilith called these tail-bearing half-breeds “Mylars” and was all too happy to mother them. For their part, Lilith’s creatures called her ‘Mu’ and they were thus known colloquially as “The Children of Mu.’ [I suppose that’s another mystery solved for you – if you’re still keeping track].

Although they were shockingly tiny — a mere one or two feet tall at maturity – I was initially intrigued by Lilith’s children. For unlike Adam, these Mu Men had an ethereal quality about them – I could immediately see there was something beyond their mere physical nature – even the look on their brows confirmed theirs was a more ‘radiant’ nature, one full of light, wisdom, and a fey-like magic.

As you can imagine, this was all incredibly exciting to me and my first thought was #Jackpot. I quickly started coming up with scads of ideas about all the things I was going to do with these intelligent little magic men.

Unfortunately my excitement quickly waned – for I realized in horror that [like always before] these Children of Mu were all born without souls and that there was no receptacle for me to put one of my tortured souls into — this meant I couldn’t reliably force the Mu Men to do my bidding when it came to my more important plans for the future. [#Crestfallen]. 

Once I realized these imps were wasting my time I quickly took the <irresistibility> spell off Lilith. When Pan realized his muse was nothing more than an ordinary mortal, he got bored and ran off to the woods — leveling a few choice words at me in the process.

But if I thought that would put an end to my problems, I was sorely mistaken. Those little Children of Mu reproduced on their own and soon filled your planet. [Although I did observe that they were careful to avoid the Hyperboreans and seemed to want nothing to do with interacting with them]. The Mylars self-reproduction ability plus their long lifespans allowed them to rapidly advance their society — I watched them expand their civilization throughout the world, their growth powered by technologies your people of today still haven’t discovered.

In spite of my distaste for them, I was impressed at the Mylars ability to harness the resources of the planet and I’ll admit that I kept close tabs on them to see just how far they might try to elevate themselves (after all, there IS a limit to what we gods will allow mortals to accomplish, you know). 

Meanwhile I’ll let you in on a little secret: The Sphinx, StoneHenge, the pyramids – these world wonders and many others were not built by ancient aliens or human slaves, instead they were built by thousands of tiny Mylars during the so-called “Golden Age” of The Children of Mu – a period of history that occurred long before humans took over the world. 

Unfettered by enemies, the Mylars became the architects of marvels that, to this very day, defy the comprehension of even the most advanced human civilizations. As a scientist myself, it was immediately clear to me that the Mylars’s creations were not mere physical structures, but instead intentional monuments that were designed to showcase their philosophy and cosmic understanding. Among their more legendary builds were massive pyramids, scattered across Terra.

[You people have foolishly concluded the pyramids to be the mundane monumental tombs of human rulers, but that theory is absurdly false]. It was clear to me that the Mylar’s pyramids were de facto beacons, aligned with various celestial bodies and purposely situated at specific locations on Terra that were anchored by the planet’s ‘ley’ lines. By constructing these wonders, they were able to amplify certain energies from Gaia’s core and thereby create portals of communication for their people the world over. [Think Monkey Men with Telepathy and you’ll get a visual].

Then there were the great stone rings and statues – Stonehenge among them. Colossal ceremonial sites constructed with enormous stones, perfectly aligned to the solstices and equinoxes, allowing the Children of Mu to track various celestial movements and engage in fascinating displays of spirituality and ritualistic behaviors. I spent decades observing their practices and filled countless scrolls with psychological notes — certain I could eventually use this knowledge to my advantage.

And let’s not forget The Crystal Towers of Lemuria – the latter being the land mass most of their people resided upon.  [Although the continent Lemuria is now blind to your eye, that locale and its towers remain in the hidden wolds of your planet even to this day]. Constructed from giant quartz crystals, the towers emitted a resonant frequency that was (and still is) harmonized with the energies of Gaia. Lemuria’s crystal towers served as centers of healing and enlightenment for the Mylars [and if your people knew about them, the greed of humanity would surely make you die from jealousy]. 

All this was rather interesting for a time, and I’ll admit that regularly captured Mu Men to torture and experiment with. They proved to be a fascinating race and I was always intrigued by their fervor to live in ‘harmony’ with Gaia, but once I found out their religion included a component about ‘harnessing the wisdom of that which was Beyond The Firmament’ my secret admiration for them came to a screeching halt!

Nobody was going to do anything related to The Dome without ME!

It became clear that the Mylar’s passion for The Stars was problematic and I realized I was going to have to put a damper on Lilith’s kids. I added that task to my to-do list. However, I will say that, since I’m always a guy who can make the best of a bad situation, I also took what I learned about the Mylar’s spiritual rituals and made some mental notes about a concept I called ‘religion’ — assuring myself I could make use of that idea later.  

With an ever-growing chore chart I had a lot on my plate, however there was still the matter of my primary experiment – to wit, I still wanted to create a race of intelligent creatures I could control. People who would worship ME as their god!
