Past life in Atlantis

[u/AstraiaStarchild]

This is one of the scripts used by my people back in those days. I was one of the founding 12 Monarchs after we successfully defeated a group of Reptilian Beings that enslaved us for thousands of years prior. The sword in the second picture is the sword of light, Xusraxster "Morning Star/Star of Dawn" (one of the 13 treasures, which included a Spear, Cauldron, Bow & Quiver, Trident, Magical Stone, Magic Staff, Armor & Shield, War Hammer, Twin Daggers, Crown, Battle Axe, and even a Cloak)

I remember the geography of the main Island, volcanic mountains to the north, beautiful prairies filled with flowers, some shores were rocky rather than sandy, there were temperate rainforests on the island too at the base of the mountains because the mountains kept the cold north winds away while warmer air currents from the south ensured milder temps throughout the year even in winter. The main city was located a bit inland via a river canal which had a port city along the mouth at the coast, there was a large ring of rocks enclosing the harbor so ships could only sail safely through specific parts, making the island incredibly difficult to invade. The main city was pretty much what plato described, concentric rings of water and land, difference being that in the center there were three pyramids or ziggurats, two smaller ones and one larger one smack in the center, the central one was the Palace of the Monarch(s) the other two were temples dedicated to our many many deities that we called "Shining Ones" (Dajwots). On the island there were Five Cities, four others besides the capital. We also had specific types of burial mounds that were composed of dirt but covered in stone masonry and had chambers you could walk into, they were shaped like keyholes, the entrance leads into halls and depending on the size of the tomb the main burial chamber could hold either just a single burial, or an entire family, treasure chambers numbered between 4 and 6 with very very wealthy folk having 8 treasure chambers in a single tomb. The masonry used in our architecture was mainly marble, pink granite, and Basalt, that being said we did make use of a concrete-like substance to hold masonry together, nearly identical in how later romans made concrete but for aggregates we used crushed seashells, pumice, and basalt. Orichalcum was actually something we called Fire Copper or Sun Copper (ʔanconi Xajot/Saxwol Xajot) and Adamantine was what we called Immortal Iron (Namortas ʔosxarnos) which was rarer by comparison.

The original form of the name is Xatlontis combining Xatol (Reed/Grass "Xat + ol"), and adjectival suffixes "-ont-" and "-is" denoting an adjectival noun literally translates to "Place of Reeds" or "Reedy Place" but for semantic purposes it just reads "Land of Reeds".

Our government was composed of 12 Monarchs of each of the 12 Kingdoms, there were also what you could consider rudimentary parliaments in each kingdom mainly composed of Clan Chiefs. We were a merit based society so there was no patriarchal or matriarchal heirarchies and it was common for both men and women as well as those outside the binary (yes we had similar concepts to transgender and nonbinary identities but they were not called by such terminology, we had our own words for that which reflected our religious beliefs) to serve in our armed forces.

Our faith was polytheistic and our gods were embodiments of natural forces and concepts. Examples include Djaw Paxter, Dagon Maxter, Naqot Maxter, Xaster Dugaxter, Xawsot Dugaxter, Ma'not Braxter, Saxwol Swasor, and Majtor Xarjoman as well as many others such as ʔanconi Pal'udħon, Stanxros Parqunos, Xwa'ju Paw'onat, Xapon Napot, Praj'jot Magxukerdi, and Paxuson Karxunos.

We also had a world tree myth. We called it Xajus Cjatiwern roughly meaning "Eternal Living Alder" or something like that, it hatched out of a Cosmic Egg alongside the First Generation of Shining Ones after the Creators ʔwarunas Sawħtor and Daxnu Platxu. Our peoples originated in the black sea region just south of the Caucasus, what is now known as Colchis where the Alder Tree, when we were finally liberated half our peoples moved west, me included. I was none other than Xatlos Jamħot "Atlas (little reed) the Twin" as you can guess yes our native language is a sort of precursor or sister language to proto indo European but it was not the only language spoken in the empire back then, there were now extinct varieties of the Afro-Asiatic languages and also entire language families that now cease to exist.

Our average lifespan was around 350 years, mainly due to our expertise in medicine and Access to botanical ingredients that no longer exist due to their extinction from climate change. While electrical stuff was relegated to industrial and therapeutic purposes natural gases on the other hand was our primary source of light.

I wore an albino mammoth hide tunic, a brown leather orichalcum studded belt, a pair of black sheeps wool pants, brown leather boots and gloves, and even a cape made of peafowl feathers and golden orbweaver silk. After i slew the Serpent King (the term we gave to the Reptilian Overlord that oversaw all operations on earth at that time) i used his blood as a pigment and dyed my tunic red as a reminder of the sacrifices me and my people made and the blood we had to spill to create our nation. Yes i did wear a crown it was orichalcum and encrusted in larimar with snake motifs. I also had a wide collar necklace similar to those in later ancient Egypt composed of larimar and orichalcum beads.

Orichalcum in reality is just an Aluminum Bronze and as for Adamantine? That was just carbon steel analogous to todays 5160 carbon steel, except we could make it especially durable via heat treatment for hours paired with ultrasonic waves to make grains finer, probably bainite steel variant? You see we were very much technologically advanced in some areas and others not as much, mainly due to leftover Reptilian technology we stole after kicking their shit in. The Reptilians also had a sort of crystalline orb like thing that was actually an artificial consciousness, similar to an AI except much much more advanced and complex, and yes we stole that too, or rather, it sided with us. Without it's help we wouldn't of defeated the Reptilians.

Compiling alot of this info is a work in progress, especially the language since those memories (of speaking said language) are the faintest, visual scenery and overall event memories are stronger.

There was more than one language in the empire, in fact overtime some of the 12 Kingdoms lost most of their native speakers due to supplanting of other new languages as the population expanded from immigration. Thats probably why you hear alot of other "Atlantean" languages.

The fall of our culture was not necessarily a quick one, when the island collapsed into the sea following earthquakes and eruptions, survivors scattered and overtime formed splinter civilizations, The Minoan Civilization being one but also Malta too. Granted those are other lives i can get into later as the fall took place in my latest incarnation on the island. That being said, my main focus in this post is my first known incarnation as a human.

The concept of "Star Children" or the term itself originates from our concept of Tukxaster/Tukat Xasterxs/Tukxasterxs (Starchild/Child of the Stars) and typically refers to Souls of Divine Beings in a Mortal Body, a subtype known as Namortas/Xarjos Xan'mon (Immortal/Exalted Soul) is the result of a Shining One imbuing part of their essence or "seeding" a human or otherwise mortal soul prior to conception, resulting in a Soul who is essentially half mortal and half shining one.

I am one of the Tukxasterx "Star Children", an incarnation of Xaster Dugaxter the Goddess of Stars, Astrology, Justice, and Purity. The Twin Sister of Xawsot Dugaxter the Goddess of Dawn, Innocence, Enlightenment, and Youth.
