Inferno

Ares/Medusa preside over the anarchy of Inferno and create fences around the nether-realms of dreams.

Here's a very interesting fan-diorama about modernism approaches to classical religious mythology, inspired by the very fun modern video-game Dante's Inferno (Electronic Arts). Enjoy!

There was a great intrigue in the heavens, which prompted the two mighty war-deities, Ares and Ciara. Ares, the actual god of war, was the brother of Ciara, whom few people knew was the actual heavenly 'manifestation' of the metaphysical entity of Medusa, the snake-woman of great dystopian charms. Medusa was the deity of focus and eyesight, complementing Ares' sense of immaculate governance or reign over war. Ares/Medusa comprised the two hands of heavenly intervention in times of purgatory overflow.

ARES: The modern city is a place of great confounding traffic and mismanaged capitalism!
MEDUSA: Brother, this seems to be the sign of the opening to the worldly gates of Inferno.

There had many gods and avatars and deities from the histories of universal governance, but unlike these other 'titans' of worldly authorship, Ares/Medusa comprised the real gruntwork of consciousness preservation. This is simply because Ares/Medusa reflected an imaginative awareness of the dark contours of manifested spiritual agony. This is simply because Ares/Medusa were the sibling-masters of universal democracy.

Ares/Medusa presided in the End Times of civilization, when the AntiChrist came to reign over humanity, and offered a method of spiritual or divine intervention to prevent mankind from falling into the utter abyss of condemnation and eternal purgatory. This Inferno was marked by the 7 Christian sins gone unchecked (pride, wrath, sloth, gluttony, greed, and envy!) as well as the reality of mad alien pains and unrequited prayers. Such Inferno markings included the unanswered total despair of children who're simply neglected in this netherworld realm of embossed dread.

Ares/Medusa considered the Level 1 of the Inferno as the sign of the desperation of neglected children during these End Times, when the AntiChrist drove the imagination towards complete self-ruin. Level 2 of the Inferno was marked by rings of frustration related to religious missions gone awry and wrought into world terrorism. Level 3 of the Inferno was marked by the governance of media and capitalism networks by badly appointed false bishops and prophets who created tracks leading only to basic destruction. Level 4 of the Inferno was marked by a total globalization of socialized rationalized dark forms of unimaginable agony and alienation, capped by incidences of anarchy such as urban rape, betrayed churches, mismarketed money, and polluted oceans. Level 5 of the Inferno was marked by cases of hideous bloody murder, including the decapitation of nuns, the gorging of the homeless, and the freezing of wildlife outside the city. Ares/Medusa offered civilization graphic virtual imagery to help mankind re-cast this sort of dark dualism (between hope and ugliness) as a manifestation of simple imagination detours.

Finally, to enforce this landscape or dominion of imagination control, the two masterful deities Ares/Medusa, decided to use a ring of flaming silver swords to create an undeniable protective barrier that would forever bar the entities of darkness that could potentially pollute the soul in such a way as to lead rational consciousness down the spiral of doubt, crime, vanity, apathy, wastefulness, racism, deformity, and vandalism. In this governing over the basic contours of consciousness-vitality, the two masterful deities Ares/Medusa wished to create a fence around the hellfire (Inferno) of wickedness gone out of proportion. In this way, the two masterful deities Ares/Medusa effectively created a sort of 'facial governance' over the otherwise uncontrollable underworld realms of undeniable terrorism.
