The Macronarrative is a collection of various texts that contain the sum-total of written history. The Macronarrative is an anthology – a compilation of texts of a variety of forms – originally written and published by REDACTED in REDACTED. These texts include instructions, stories, poems, images, and recipes, among other genres. The collection of materials that are accepted as part of the Macronarrative by a certain author is called a macrocanon. The texts can be divided into two books, Orthodoxia & Miscellanea. Often, Orthodoxia is used interchangeably with The Macronarrative, since Orthodoxia is, in fact, a macronarrative.
Orthodoxia
- Main article: Orthodoxia
Orthodoxia consists of three consecutive Verses of Humanity. Most Verses - the span of a single reality - are unrelated, but the Orthodoxia consists of three connected Verses. Events within the preceding Verse lead to the creation of the next Verse. The three Verses can count as a single, interrupted chain of events, also known as a macronarrative.
All narrative movement can be traced back to the actions of REDACTED in the First Verse. The theme of every Verse revolves around the corruption (self-destructive tendency) and rejuvenation of Humanity. Therefore, in every Verse there is a corrupter and a savior.
Verses
The First Verse thematically centers around Religion and features the Archangel Michael as the corrupter and REDACTED as the savior. The First Verse occurs in the Centralized World, the World within, the World ruled by One. The Second Verse thematically centers around Invention and features Anzvelton as the corrupter and Ivory Tremaine as the savior. The Second Verse occurs in the Corporate World. The Third Verse thematically centers around Freedom and features Antvaleon as the corrupter and Kell Andrant as the savior.
Macronarrative
The end of each Verse brings the dispersion and re-allocation of all elements from the preceding Verse. The dissemblance of a Verse can bring about the corruption of its original elements. For example, the dispersion of Michael’s essence in the First Verse allowed his vengefulness to attach itself to another more malignant form. Instead of shattering, his vengefulness by force of will remained whole and survived in the form of Anzvelton. Anzvelton lacked the humanity of Michael and thus became consumed by Michael’s vengefulness. Anzvelton eventually lost himself utterly and sought to consume the World.
Miscellanea
- Main article: Miscellanea
