19255 - The quintessence of history

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athena Kehagias

Arestis’s tasks do not only have a cognitive value for that period.
Because the duration of the conflict lasted five eons.
and this means that, it doesn’t constitute a regional conflict.
Arestis continues his struggle to the end, with a
fantastic militancy which is indicative of the Byzantium.
He thought that, all these indeed occurred
before Digenis Akritas
even though
very few knew about it.
And if they had analyzed these better eons prior,
they would have been better prepared
for the next.
The same mental schemes.
But most could not see.
Only a few rare people have succeeded.
He could not however explain
in which way
they had spread.
The mythology was the essence of the story.
It held on to elements that description had forgotten.
Even though, these are not sufficient for the defense
when there are constant attacks.
Only the quintessence of history was capable of it.
And that was the strategy.
The strategy of history was not merely a theory.
It allowed us to avoid the shackles.
The traps of the enemy.
He always relied on the mass,
the sacrifice of his own
for a piece of land.
But the two-headed eagle was watching over his own
because they were few
and they had to survive
even within the crowd.
The barbaric movements against the Cross
had to be disarmed with maneuvers and combinations
and intelligence was necessary.
He continued the teaching.
He also showed them the retrospective analyses.
With riddles.
They had to trace the past
analyzing the present,
in order to know how they should play in the future.
The review pointed out the future.
That’s why it was trapped in the past.
The mosaic of Time
had his icon.
And that was the chessboard.
It was born for the future.
