• The dangerous pattern of "silent Christianity" and code-switching your faith

From Drifting to Driven: Overcoming Compromise in Your Christian Walk - Sam Walters - GTAN2541

Fully canon, and fully the beginning of The Game of Leaping.

------ (LORE:)

"YOU ARE... A FRAIL ONE, JASPER."
"ACCEPT THAT YOU ARE..."
"MY INFERIOR KIND."

" . . . "

"AND YET EVEN YOU, OF ALL AGES; THE GOD SLAYER."
"YOU CANNOT DEFEAT YOUR OWN KINDRED."
"THAT WOMAN... ANIYAH."

"SHE . . . "
"SHE MAKES ME FEEL AS IF YOU ARE MORE."
"THAT TOGETHER, BOTH ARE ONE."

"SO PROVE YOUR POWER, GOODWILL."
"PROVE THAT YOU ARE THE APEX FORCE;"
"THAT AN ELEMENTAL GOD CAN BE BESTED."

Aniyah stood in faith, Jasper weak and frail.
Jasper was sweating, crying, Aniyah stood up, unsheathed her sword, equipped her armor. "Oceanica, I may not be the strongest; But I have the Lord God. And he is enough."

Oceanica extended her arms, the swarm of the sea began to recede.

"VERY WELL... TEST THE MIGHT OF CHRIST; AND YOU WILL SEE THIS:"
"THAT HIS CREATION SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN GIVEN A BODY."

Aniyah stood against the waves, as they crashed to the ground in surpassing strength, the sea splt. Both Jasper & Aniyah looked up in awe as they saw Kingdom's Throne hovering above the waters.

"It has been... Far too long, Aniyah."

TO BE CONTINUED. 

------ (Additional Info:)

My first attempt at a fight song for Oceanica, this signals Aniyah stepping up against a foe thaty will be a recurring power that only grows stronger. When she's at her full, the world will bow and bend their knees by force, not by equality. And when Oceanica nearly destroys the world, it is said a "tragic event" will happen.

Nobody, not even Jasper, knows if whoever wrote this prophecy is true; But they know one thing: bitterness is not the ending, it is salvation. So no matter what happens, we accept the cause and effect.

VERSUS OCEANICA (Release V)

Type: Tragic Oratorio Ballad / Maternal Lament
Tone: Deeply emotional, cinematic, sacred sorrow
Perspective: A mother watching her two sons—one Nephite, one Amlicite—about to fight each other at the Battle of Amnihu.
Themes: War, family, faith, divided loyalty, maternal love, tragedy

Musically, this would work beautifully as a slow-building orchestral ballad, beginning with soft strings and distant horns (mirroring the battlefield) and rising to a heartbreaking crescendo in the final chorus.

🎧 SoundCloud Description

💔 “I See Them Both” – A Mother’s Lament at the Battle of Amnihu

Two sons. One Nephite, one Amlicite.
A mother stands between two armies, helpless as her children prepare to fight each other in a war of pride and belief.

“I See Them Both” is a tragic oratorio ballad set during the Book of Mormon’s civil war between Alma’s people and Amlici’s followers. It gives voice to the silent witness of every mother who has ever lost her children to opposing causes.

🎙️ Genre: Sacred Dramatic Ballad / Scriptural Oratorio
📖 Inspiration: Book of Mormon – Alma 2: Battle of Amnihu
💔 Theme: War, Family, Faith, Sacrifice

“I don’t care who wins this war—just let my sons survive each other.”
