Have you heard the tale? Of the Unseen Foe?

One who walks in shadows – yet strikes in light? Perhaps – for those who listen do not hear whispers of an individual. They can all be corrupted and destroyed. Those who listen may hear of a symbol – the values it represents everlasting. For symbols are powerful because they are the visible signs of invisible realities.

Have you seen the sword? Of the Unseen Foe?

A reminder for tyrants to be – it precariously looms over those who would think their powers are above all others. Its cut is not lessened whether you can spot it or not. Yet you can always sense its presence, feel its point resting on your shoulders. For the tyrant always fears what cannot be controlled.

Have you listened to the voice? Of the Unseen Foe?

It is soft and benevolent? Or is it cruel and harsh? Perhaps determined and firm? I for one do not know – nor do I need to know. The Unseen Foe may whisper or shout. Yet it is what the Unseen Foe doesn’t say or do – that sends the loudest message. For actions are always louder than words.

Have you seen the face? Of the Unseen Foe?

Of course you have not. One does not perceive the Unseen Foe. That would be foolish and pointless. The best one may hope for – is to understand what the Unseen Foe did. For what is seen is temporary – but what is unseen is eternal.
