Torr's Creation Of The Sakriya Caves
Before the beginning there was only nihility. During this age of null, there was only one thing in existence: the mind of Törasekur. Although the material world had not yet been created, the mind of Törasekur flourished as the vision of what the material world would one day become. It was filled with humans that lived much like they did in the age of stone. However, even as a mere vision, the material world was in peril from the evil forces of Kaisog, who called themselves the Grey Kinship. Kaisog lead his great army across the barren landscapes of a land known as Wisteria. As they conquered more villages, they burned them to ash, which flied away with the wind, covering the plains of grass in a thick coating of gray dust—hence the Grey …show more content…
Little did this man know that he would play a very significant role in the creation of a new world much like the one that he currently lived in. Torr was called into action when the Kinship found where he and many others were hiding. Only a few escaped the raid. He fled to a small and seemingly insignificant cave, which is now known as the Sakriya Caves. Inside those caverns is where Torr began to realize his role in the creation of the material world, for the Sakriya Caves is where Torr began his fierce battle with the visions of the many souls that were trapped within the gemstone-laden walls of the caves. As he caught glimpses of many lives and a myriad of diverse locations, his body began to deteriorate. By the time Torr left the caves, most of his skin had eroded away, leaving the weakened muscles and frail bones that remain. When Torr reemerged from the Sakriya Caves, the Grey Kinship had conquered all of Wisteria and Kaisog held the reigns to a very strict regime. It is said that the great sorrow that Torr felt in learning this is what conjured the gold chain into existence. Regardless of what is fact and what is myth, it is known to all that Torr took the chain directly to the enormous palace of Kaisog, where he solely defeated the guards of the tower, before

    The movie The Matrix has many similar themes and differences to “The Allegory of the Cave”. The Matrix is about a man named Neo, he believes that he’s a normal man with a normal life but then he is contacted by a man named Morpheus. Morpheus exposes Neo to the truth that his world, where he is just regular Tom Anderson is made up. The Matrix, was created by sentient machines that subdue the human population, while their bodies' heat and electrical activity are used as an energy source. Neo is reluctant to accept this truth that his original world, the matrix it is called, does not in fact exist. This relates to the “The Allegory of the Cave”, because Neo lived in ignorance his whole life, not knowing his reality was not the only one.…

    Over the years, conversations of the topics of Plato’s writings arise. The teachings from Socrates of the “Parable of the Sun, Myth of the Cave and Divided Line” have become very popular to the world. So popular that it has an impact on the movie industry, the stories are hidden in some movies. More movies depict the stories” The Divided Line and The Myth of the Cave “ rather than “The Parable of the Sun.” The movie, eXistenZ, is an example of “The Myth of the Cave and The Divided Line”, since the stories are very similar. The movie has many similarities to “The Myth of the Cave”, but can correlate better to “The Divided Line” for more structure.…

    The Allegory of the Cave

    • 481 Words

    In “The Allegory of the Cave”, I believe truth is being portrayed as something we as humans see, maybe only once, without it even being the whole truth. Even then we neglect to see “other truths.” According to Socrates, and I quote, “From the beginning people like this have never managed, whether on their own or with the help by others, to see anything besides the shadows that are [continually] projected on the wall opposite them by the glow of fire.” Socrates believes humans will automatically assume something to be truthful, and with no actual evidence that we won’t even bother to look at the sight of whatever it may actually be. At then end, if someone would try to tell us otherwise, we will neglect the actual truth and still believe we know what the truth really is. Even if the actual truth was shown to us, and we were seeing it with the naked eye, it will not be enough to convince us otherwise of our own perception. However, I believe Socrates is saying that as humans, we need to be forced to look at the “real truth” and that it will take time to assimilate to once we’re forcibly presented with it. However afterwards, we will see the light; we will see the real truths behind what we previously believed to be false. After the truth has been revealed to us, we will assimilate to it permanently. Socrates states, and I quote, “But I think that finally he would be in the condition to look at the sun itself, not just at its reflection whether in water or wherever else it might appear, but at the sun itself, as it is….” However, knowing too much of the truth can lead to conflicts, and that is probably why so many things are hidden from us. Maybe our problem is not that we don’t want to see the truth, but that we are scared of what the outcome may be if we do know the real truths.…

    Prior to the Neolithic Revolution’s transformations, people were forced to hunt for their own food. This resulted in humans following their food sources’ trail, whether it be hunting an animal, or essential natural resources. Because of the fact that people were constantly shifting from area to area based on their food, this labeled them as nomads; people who did not have a permanent home or residence. Due to the lack of food, there was a small population. Then, gradually, the Neolithic Revolution began to take place at different times and different places, a time period where humans shifted from gathering and hunting food to producing it. People began domesticating animals to provide food, as well as plants and crops, which varied depending on climate. As a result of domestication, agriculture began to take form. Agriculture is the farming of animals and plants, which made life easier and enabled people to remain in the same place. These were some of the building blocks for civilization that took place during the Neolithic Revolution.…

    Ancient Egyptian Religion

    Aten, an Egyptian god, is described as the only reason people can flourish in life. Aten is the “lord of the disk” who brings light to all of his creations. The king perceives the Aten as the way of life or death. The darkness and cold can also be perceived as death and danger. The hymn mentions when speaking of darkens that “all creeping things bite.” Aten chases the darkness away and gives all living things light so that they can live, grow, and be safe. All beasts rise and plats grow once the Aten has shone his face; therefore, without his light the world cannot thrive. Later in the Hymn it is mentioned that Aten made the sky so that he had a place to watch his creations in the…
