Season 3 Memoirs of Death, chapter: TREFF (1904)

Aleister sat cross-legged on the floor of his hotel room in Cairo, surrounded by candles and incense. He had been studying the occult for years, but he had yet to make any significant breakthroughs in his understanding of the mysteries of the universe. As he was digesting the plant he found beside the lake during his East Africa visit, psychotropic ingredients started to kick in and he heard a faint whisper from over his left shoulder, coming from the corner of the room. It seemed to echo itself in his physical heart in a very strange manner, hard for him to describe. The voice was of deep timbre, musical and expressive, its tones solemn, voluptuous, tender, fierce, or aught else as suited the moods of the message. Not bass – perhaps a rich tenor or baritone. The English were free of either native or foreign accents, perfectly pure of local or caste mannerisms, thus startling and even uncanny at first hearing. He had a strong impression that the speaker was actually in the corner where he seemed to be, in a body of "fine matter," transparent as a veil of gauze, or a cloud of incense smoke. He appeared to be a tall, dark man in his thirties, well-knit, active, and strong, with the face of a savage king, and eyes veiled lest their gaze should destroy what they saw. The dress was not Arab; it suggested Assyria or Persia, but very vaguely. It cannot be him - he thought, it must be some of his many messengers!

The voice spoke to him again, this time in English: “I am bringing the gift from the creature you have released in ritual in Scotland” - Master's voice was clear and his palm was holding a small ring with an attached green stone on top of it.

“I’m glad I finally met you Master!” - Aleister bowed before the being.

“I like the name, human. But be sure, even though many of my followers are calling me that name, I am not the Master… I am your “Guardian Angel” and I am aware of what you are going to become even before you were born. I came because I have some knowledge I want to share with you". For hours, Crowley listened quietly as the voice spoke to him, trying not to destroy the symphony of his silence but revealing secrets and insights that he had never even imagined.

It was a glimpse into a world beyond his wildest dreams that will bring only pain and suffering to my friends.

And all I could do was to watch this discussion in silence.
