ANGEL LOCSIN IS BACK AS DARNA ON BIG SCREEN!

Actually this is not my story. This is the origin story of Mars Ravelo's Darna by Bernardo B. Montilla (a.k.a. Bernardo Carpio), with email address bernard_montilla@yahoo.com and a contact number 09165416047, which I have found in his blogs.

 

THE CELESTIAL FORTRESS OF LIGHT

(An Origin Story by Bernardo B. Montilla)

It all began at the time of a galactic war between the inhabitants of Nibiru, the so-called 10th planet of our solar system (which revolves clockwise around the Sun, unlike the rest of the planets that revolve counterclockwise, and has a different orbit outward the solar system), and the inhabitants of Tiamat, the planet made of salt water, which had a lone satellite known as Kingu.

Tiamat was ruled by the dragon, named Kur, who had built a crystal city at the ocean-bed. In the midst of that crystal city was a fresh-water lake, known as the Abzu. 
 

On the other hand, Nibiru was a planet of dry lands inhabited by human-like beings. The inhabitants were peaceful farmers and shepherds who cultivated the mountains and the valleys alike. Kur was envious that he secretly taught them the art of war and gradually brought chaos to the planet and divided it into two great nations of tribes -- the North and the South -- as the clashes escalated. Finally, they engaged a battle that engulfed all of Nibiru. Life on the planet nearly died out during those horrible days.
 

In desperation, both nations had declared a truce. In order to survive, they created a single global government in which both houses rule united -- that is, a male from one nation would be chosen to rule, a female from the other nation would be chosen to be his spouse, and together they would rule a united people of Nibiru and from their son and heir establish the ruling dynasty of the planet.
 

A method of casting lots had been decided to determine who would rule. The lot fell to a warrior of the North named An (Heaven). An then chose a woman, named Ki (Earth) -- who was sometimes known as Uraş, Uruş, Aruş, Areş, or Eriş but later became more popular as Ereshkigal -- from the South who was known for both her martial skills as a battle maiden as well as for her prowess in love. They were married and he conferred on her the title An Tu which means "the Leader who is An's Spouse". From the said marriage, peace and unity was regained. Farming was soon re-established, infrastructures rebuilt, and a splendid city of Agade (Unity) was built from which to rule.
 

Ki bore Ea, the only begotten son of An, who by himself climbed upon the heavenly throne of his father and brandished lightning in his little hand, and newly born, lifted and carried thunderbolts in his tender fingers.  
 

On the other hand, Nibiru's civilization had advanced scientifically and technologically.  This made Kur more and more jealous. He made an evil scheme of destroying Nibiru and the reputation of its king. Through the chemicals emitted by the planet's metropolis, Kur made a hole on its atmosphere. As an effect, harvests decreased, food stores dwindled, people started to go hungry, and the climate changed. Recognizing that something was going terribly wrong with the planet, An set out to investigate.
 

The widening hole in the atmosphere and the reduction of volcanic activity had been discovered. Nibiru's core was cooling; the atmosphere was not being replenished as it had been in the past. With the protective atmosphere diminishing, crop failure and pestilences increased. Without the protectively thick atmosphere, there was nothing that could be done to protect the crops and life on Nibiru was doomed.
 

Nibiru had an elliptical orbit on a cycle of 3,600 years around the Sun. Because the planet has such a long orbit around the Sun, the Nibiruans relied on its very thick upper atmosphere to shelter them from cold, like a warm blanket. It also had the task of keeping the oxygen from escaping in the outer space, hence making life possible. Unfortunately for them, they were faced with extinction when the less belching volcanoes were spitting up, the air was made thinner, the protective shield had been diminished, and the fields had been infested by pestilence and could no longer be tilled.

 

An had engaged himself actively in both understanding the problems that Nibiru faced as well as dedicated to seek a solution. He studied Nibiru's orbit and the solar system. He even observed the other five outer planets -- Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter.

Kur used the chance while An was away. He took the Merkaba, by which at the center of its inner wheel lies the caduceus of metamophosis known as the Kadmun, and kidnapped Ki, who had been made keeper of the Tablet of Destinies, to his realm. He kept the Merkaba at the bottom of the Abzu. 

After learning this event, An was devastated. He demanded Kur for the immediate release of his wife. Kur, who had now transformed himself into a very handsome human-like being named Aidoneus by entering the Merkaba, complied but first gave a kernel of a pomegranate seed to Ki deceiving her that by eating it she could go home to Nibiru. But in reality it was a poison and eating it meant living with the dragon forever. Ki ate it. The feminine spirit  of the Enlil, known as the Shekinah, who had long been residing in her body being the keeper of the Tablet of Destinies, separated from her. Kur captured the Shekinah and imprisoned it inside the Merkaba.  Kur in the form of Aidoneus then seduced Ki into sex, perversion, and lust. And from that union with Kur, she bore a son named Nergal. Having sinned against her husband, she now had no other choice but to stay and to accept her fate to become queen of the great abyss -- hence, she was now called as Ereshkigal, "the once battle maiden who was now queen of erotic love in the great abyss" or sometimes called as Allat ("the Salty Sea").

Meanwhile, methods to restore Nibiru's atmosphere were debated. The scientists attempted to create an artificial shield for the planet and launched it into the sky. But it did not remain in orbit and crashed back to the ground. Next the scientists studied the volcanoes and worked to devise a way to awaken them. But as the ill effects of the climate change became more visible, the people began to complain and worry. 

The mother spaceship Marduk

Being Nibiru's crowned prince, Ea had been expected to decide and act immediately on the environmental problems of the planet. The scientists proposed to him that if they shot finely powdered gold into the atmosphere, they could repair it. The only drawback was that gold was extremely rare on Nibiru. They requested permission to build spaceships that could journey towards the other planets and search for the existence of gold there to be retrieved to Nibiru. 

The situation gone worst as Nibiru was approaching the planet Tiamat. Both rulers of the opposing planets became weary on how to stop or evade the possible collision. The teen-age Ea, as commander of the mother spaceship named as Marduk, was sent by An to navigate around the other planets of the solar system especially Mars and Tiamat to find possible solution on how to save its respective inhabitants. From constant observation, Ea had found out that gold was abundant in the Asteroid Belt which they called the Hammered Bracelet. The Nibiruans created a base and spaceport in Mars to transport the gold from there to Nibiru and for an easy access of the waters in the cavern springs of Mars which were used as fuels for the spaceships. From there, Ea had overheard Kur planning to wage war against Nibiru and to destroy it before it hit the other planets. Ereshkigal disagreed but Kur, being much irritated of the Nibiruan exploration activities over his planet and the other planets in the solar system, was persistent and insisted that he would push through his plan even without her consent and blessing. Kur, in his dragon form, flew towards the Marduk and belched fire against it. But Ea fired a laser beam from the Marduk and fatally hit the dragon. Kur fell from the sky and crash landed at the Abzu and laid there lifeless. Ereshkigal was devastated to see the dead dragon. The young boy Nergal told her that it was the Marduk commanded by Ea that murdered his father.

Enraged, Ereshkigal took the Tablet of Destinies (Dup Shimati), which was a rectangular box that had a wooden base and a shiny metal top which vibrated and emitted static electricity as a button was being pressed. The box was more like of a futuristic convertible tablet computer. Ereshkigal pressed another button, the sides folded, the box opened and revealed the Enlil, a round ever-revolving sphere which was more like a shining miniature of the universe. With a powerful voice, Ereshkigal unleashed the eleven gigantic races of monsters from the sphere -- Bašmu, a 60-double miles long seven-headed horned dragon with two forelegs and wings; Ušumgallu, a four-legged winged horned lion-dragon; Mušmaḫḫū, a seven-headed horned dragon that is a hybrid of serpent, lion, and bird; Mušḫuššu, a scaly dragon with hind legs like an eagle's talons and feline forelegs and has a long neck and tail, a horned head, a snake-like tongue and a crest; Laḫmu, a male sphinx; Lahamu, a gigantic hideous four-winged female Gorgon with snake scales as skin, crocodile claws as hands, snakes as hair and beard, and two serpent tails as legs; Ugallu, a lion-headed storm-demon with bird's feet who is carrying a mace girded with a dagger; Uridimmu, a human headed lion-man wearing a horned tiara and holding a staff with an uskaru, or lunar crescent, at the tip; Girtablullû (Scorpion-Man), a supernatural being wearing a horned cap of divinity, having a human head with beard, a human body, the hind legs and talons of a hawk, a snake-headed penis, and a scorpion tail whose aura is frightful, and whose glance is death; Umū dabrūtu, a lion-griffin which has a head and forelimbs of a lion, has the hind-leg and wings of a bird, and has a serpent as tail; Kulullû (Fish-Centaur), an ichthyocentaur that has the upper body of a man, the lower front of a horse, the tail of a fish and wears lobster-claw horns; and Kusarikku (Bull-Man). 
 
She commanded the gigantic beasts to attack the Marduk, destroy it, and kill all its inhabitants. 

Spacecrafts, in defense, flew down from the Marduk and fought the monsters. The Nibiruans gathered in terror. A galactic battle ensued. But the Nibiruan fleet had defeated the fleet of monsters with its missiles, laser beams, bombs, and other modern military ammunition.

Furious, Ereshkigal transformed herself into a hideous beast, a five-headed human-like dragon. The dragon with an unbelievable speed flew towards Marduk and belched smoke and fire. But seeing this, Ea fired a fatal blow at the dragon which fell back towards Tiamat like a shooting star.

The crying little boy Nergal embraced the dragon's cheek and lamented over his dying mother. Ereshkigal handed him the Tablet of Destinies. She then commanded him to avenge his parents' death by taking over the kingship of Nibiru and claiming its throne by the right of blood and by the authority vested by the tablet.

Suddenly,  the most anticipated collision of Nibiru to Tiamat happened. Tiamat was sliced into two halves and these were forced to another orbit around the Sun. The other half was shattered into pieces -- asteroids now known as the Asteroid Belt, which is orbiting between Mars and Jupiter; the meteors; and the comets. While the other half was forced into its new orbit between Mars and Venus and became the "new planet" Earth. Kingu became the Moon of Earth. 

Ea transported the little boy to the Marduk.  The Marduk then sipped all the freshwater from the lake into a vessel. Ea had also transported the Merkaba to his command ship. 

Ea brought the boy Nergal to Mars to be raised in Atargatis -- an underwater city, at the deeps of the cavern springs of Mars, of the naiad amazon race known as the Atar  which gates were guarded by fifty sphinxes -- by its queen, Damkina. Damkina had been raped by Kur, disguising as Aidoneus, in the past while she had fallen asleep beneath a tree and became the mother of Ereshkigal. It was the reason why she left Nibiru and lived in the cavern springs of Mars. After she had given birth to Ereshkigal she brought her to Nibiru and entrusted her to the southern tribe. Damkina, however, had been eternally young and beautiful due to the red robe and the necklace she was wearing. The necklace was beautifully wrought in gold, in the shape of two fishes encircling one another, and inlaid with various pearls and lapis lazuli -- a symbol of harmony between the sexes, the yin and yang in Chinese philosophy, which was needed to get at the whole "great mystery" of life. But the said necklace had also been worn as either a belt or a bracelet hence it was also called by the Atars as the Necklace, Belt, or Bracelet of Darna since it could only be worn by the High Priestess and Guardian of the Celestial Fortress of Light, which was called as Darna (from Sumerian Dur-ur-ana which means "celestial fortress of light"), which stood in the midst of Atargatis. The Tablet of Destinies had also been kept safe in the fortress. Aside from the necklace and the robe, Damkina was also wearing a mural crown with a red gem that emanated light, a cestus which had the power of allurement over men,  and a signet ring that possessed the power of invisibility and the power to imprison evil spirits.

Soon Ea had married Damkina and was crowned as the ruler of Mars under the title Zagreus. Ea was made the keeper of the Tablet of Destinies. From Ea and Damkina's union, a lovely daughter named Inanna was born in Mars. But even with this, Damkina raised Nergal, whom she nicknamed as Marte or Gerra, as her own son and trained him to become a great warrior. Yet, even though peace had been restored, Nibiru's more breaching atmosphere still suffered from circuit to circuit. The Nibiruans grew restless and blamed that all the misfortune was brought because of keeping Nergal alive.  

By this time on Earth, the life-forms from the sea had evolved into terrestrial life-forms. Ea who was constantly observing the planet found out that gold was abundant in it. He had sent down 300 Nibiruan astronauts to mine the gold on Earth. 

Nergal, on the other hand, who had now grown up into a very handsome human-like being, was determined to pursue his plan to usurp the throne of Nibiru. He was still filled with rage and revenge. He planned to leave the Atargatis and go to Nibiru. But in order to do so, he must get a spacecraft for his own. But the spacecrafts were stationed inside the fortress, which was enclosed by a crystal firmament, where no men were allowed to enter unless he must passed one of its fifty sphinx guardians by answering its riddle correctly or else he would be devoured to his death or he would be shot dead by a sphinx deadly ray. Nergal had seen many young male Nibiruan gold-miners being killed by the sphinxes as they tried to enter the gates. Yet he, armed only with a sickle-sword and a mace with two feline heads, was very determined to fulfill his plan. He stood beneath a gate where Lamma, an androsphinx  or a lamassu, was standing. Lamma had a body of a bull, a tail of a lion, wings of an eagle, and a head of a bearded man wearing a shugurra helmet. The androsphinx immediately uttered his riddle, "What creature, spoken into creation by Ea, walked before Ea in perfection at the beginning, fell from grace and was divided from Ea, and will be redeemed and made perfect by Ea?" Nergal answered, "It is Adam, the first human being who was made by Ea only from the red clay of Mars whom he had brought to Earth and from whom he had planned to rule the universe. But I, a celestial being who was made from fire and better than him, will never prostate myself to him. It is my destiny to rule the universe and not that Earthling made from Mars." The androsphinx immediately leaped to his death.
 

Nergal took the helmet of the androsphinx and wore it. Immediately wings sprouted from his back. He flew, entered the fortress, and stole the Tablet of Destinies. He then took the Anzu, a spacecraft which was called as the "bull of heaven" since it was shaped like Lamma and armed with nuclear missiles, and flew away with the 600 rebel miners in Mars. Riding on the sphinxes, Damkina and the Atar warrior-maidens chased Nergal but the latter hurled missiles at them. 

Once Nergal arrived in Nibiru, he mingled with the princes and spread doubt over An's rulership and questioned his absence to the Constellation Taurus leaving behind the kingdom to his caretaker, his first-born and only begotten son Ea, who, he told them, would not listen to anyone and not even to the best minds and researchers on all of Nibiru for a better solution in repairing and rebuilding the planet's atmosphere. He further said there was only one voice that Ea would listened to -- that of the Shekinah, the feminine spirit of light, that was dwelling inside the Merkaba, which was kept safe in Atargatis and that this was not a secret to the savants and the scientists who had tried to persuade her to convince Ea to implement their plans but she was steeped in the faith of the Great Creator of All and the belief in Destiny. Shekinah counseled Ea that if the death of Nibiru is the destiny the Great Creator of All has set for Nibiru, they should accept it. She further told him that if restoring Nibiru is destiny, then they can only achieve that by prayer. So Ea took no action and followed Shekinah in daily supplications for the welfare of the planet and its people.

Under the insinuation of Nergal, the royal princes were preparing to revolt. They were digging out the ancient weapons from the world war. The guards at the palace gates threw up their hands and fled upon seeing the princes with their nuclear weapons. Nergal and his favorites pushed together and the great gates swung open. With renewed howls of rage, the princes swarmed through the gates and toward the palace. A series of explosion was heard. There were bombings everywhere. Nergal advanced with his missile drawn. 

Nergal entered the throne room, ascended the dais steps, sat upon the throne, and proclaimed himself as the new king of Nibiru. Nergal then ordered the rebel princes to discharge the nuclear weapons into the volcanoes which was found out later as futile.

The seven Archons and the twenty four Councilors of the royal chamber of destinies questioned Nergal by what right he proclaimed himself as king of Nibiru.  

Nergal showed them the Tablet of Destinies. He then told them that he was Nergal, the son of Lady Wisdom, the Celestial Spirit of the Great Light and that he was himself the Alalu (equivalent to the Latin Lucifer) the bearer of Enlil, the great light which was the source of the cosmic power of the universe.

Some of the rebel princes who also wanted to be king tried to steal the tablet but upon touching it were instantly electrocuted by the power emanating from it and all fell dead.The other rebel princes immediately bowed before Nergal. But the rest who did not bow before him were imprisoned at the dungeon. Nergal then asked who else wanted to contest his claim to the throne. 

The guards opened the chamber doors, and a bald young boy -- dressed in Nibiruan kingly attire and holding an iron rod in his right hand and three large discs in his left hand -- entered proclaiming that Nergal  was a liar and that his claim of royal blood was weaker than his. When asked by the Chairman of the Council to speak his name and his lineage, the little boy told them that he was An, the one who was born from the Enlil, the cosmic orb which had already existed before the beginning of time. Everyone was astonished to see a different form of An whom they called now as Anu to differentiate him from his older form.

The boy then pointed his iron rod at the Tablet of Destinies. The tablet opened and revealed the Enlil, the round ever-revolving sphere. He threw one of the discs at the sphere and the past was revealed like a hologram, then another disc which showed the present, and another disc which showed the future. Nergal was terrified to see the future -- he was slain and his body was buried in Mars. He went away from the tablet. Swiftly, the boy closed the tablet and took it.

Nergal, together with the rebel princes, ran outside the palace. He went aboard the Anzu, flew away, and fired down the missiles towards the city. The Anzu headed towards Earth. Seeing this, under Ea's command, the Marduk fired at the Anzu and hit it which caused it to fall towards Earth and crash-landed in the Persian Gulf.

During this time, the 300 Nibiruan astronauts who were sent as gold-miners on Earth and were called there as the Anunnaki rebelled against Ea. They even took the female Earthlings for wives after seeing them beautiful even though it was against the law of Nibiru. They had sex with the Earthlings and together they shared the secrets of Nibiruan civilization and built their own version of a highly advanced civilization on Earth. They then successfully mingled human-animal DNA and combined the hereditary traits of different species into a single new mutation and created giant mutants known as the Nephilim who possessed the combined intelligence and instincts of several life forms and in ways unfamiliar to creation. They had dragged mankind away from the belief of one Great Creator of All into polytheism under the supreme rule of Nergal, who had survived and who now assumed as a sun-god Ra or a war-god Gerra, after stealing back the Tablet of Destinies which Ea had kept hidden in Petra, the rock near the Jordan River. Nergal, who often riding on the Anzu, shot nuclear missiles against cities that would not bow to his kingship.

Anu, riding on the Marduk, descended to Earth and hovered on the atmosphere. He was unhappy of what he saw. 

Seeing the mother spaceship, Nergal fired nuclear missiles at it. By doing so, he had declared war against Anu. Angered, Anu sent down seven spacecrafts to stop the rebellion. One of the spacecraft was the Ninlil (South Wind) which was driven by the beautiful young lady Inanna. The Ninlil flew directly to the Anzu, which ran havoc over the spaceport in ancient Sumer particularly in Eridu, and fired it with deadly blows. The Anzu fell down at the mouth of the Euphrates River which impact had overturned the fishing boat of Dumuzi (the biblical Enoch), a young and handsome fisherman who was a son of Ea with an Earthling named Sirtur, throwing the fisherman to the river.

Riding on the Ninlil, Inanna dove down and submerged in the river to find Nergal, the Anzu, and her half-brother. But instead of finding them what she saw beneath the big crack of the riverbed, where the air had been vacuumed and the water could not flow, was a star-gate guarded by a winged Anunnaki who was dressed in black, wearing a metal horus mask, and carried a sword on his belt and a Was scepter in his left hand.  

She went down from her spacecraft through spinning inner rings going downward and spinning outer rings going upward. When asked by Inanna his name, he presented himself as Namtaru (Destiny). Inanna asked him the where-about of Dumuzi, Nergal, and the Anzu. He told her that they were teleported to the Underworld far beyond the seventh gate and told her that no living being was allowed to go down there without permission unless she had the keys of her own. Inanna handed him the seven star-gate disc keys. Once each disc key was inserted in a compartment by the guardian the star-gate opened and as Inanna entered through it with him one of her garments would disappear -- they found the second star-gate on Mars, the third on Jupiter, the fourth on Saturn, the fifth on Uranus, the sixth on Neptune, and the seventh on Pluto. Upon entering the seventh star-gate, they had entered the realm known as Irkalla and Inanna found herself completely naked. In horror, she saw in there Dumuzi playing a lyre in front of the hideous beast Ereshkigal whom they thought was long dead. When the beast fell asleep, Dumuzi walked slowly towards the star-gate and without looking back at Inanna told her to follow him and escape while there was still a chance. But when Inanna was about to follow Dumuzi, Namtaru released deadly rays coming from the Enlil, the ever-revolving sphere, and fatally hit Inanna on the thighs. When Dumuzi turned to look, to his horror, he saw Inanna hanging dead on a stake on the wall. He ran and escaped by jumping through the star-gate.

Kurgurra and Galatur

An intelligent robosapien, named as Kurgurra, and a great nanobot, named as Galatur, which were created by Ea and who were following Inanna entered through the star-gate. The beast Ereshkigal was astonished to see them. The two artificially intelligent robots mimicked the movements and sounds created by the beast which calmed down the latter in awe. 

The Kurgurra and the Galatur as programmed by Ea then sprinkled the food and the water of life on the lips of Inanna respectively. Inanna was revived and her wounds healed. Inanna together with her father's robots ran towards the star-gate. As they got out from each star-gate, Inanna took the disc key and she regained her garments one by one. 

Seeing Inanna running out from the star-gate, Dumuzi maneuvered the Ninlil over her. The guardian tried to stop Inanna by striking her with his sword. But Inanna was fast and defeated him. Inanna abruptly grabbed his mask and was surprised that he was none other than the disguised Nergal. She snatched the Tablet of Destinies from Nergal including the three discs of destiny that he was wearing on his chest. Swiftly she ran towards her spacecraft. Nergal fired electric rays at Inanna from his scepter. Inanna had escaped from the death rays and fired a deadly ray from the ever-revolving sphere which made Nergal fall to the ground. The seven demon robots, known individually as the galla and collectively as the ilū sebettu, of Nergal came out from the star-gate and ran towards Inanna. Dumuzi transported Inanna up towards the Ninlil but the demon robots clung to her and tried to pull her down. And when she was inside the spacecraft, the other demon robots clung to Dumuzi who was sitting on the pilot's seat. Startled, Dumuzi had driven the Ninlil to the surface, then upwards just slightly over the fields of cattle and sheep, and then surged high over the fortresses of Uruk, Badtibira, Zabalam, Adab, Nippur, Kish, and Akkad. As the tiny demons clung to his body and head, Dumuzi accidentally driven the spacecraft down to the waterfall. The spacecraft fell aground like a red-wattled lapwing and crashed in the woods with one of its wings broken. Inanna and Dumuzi ran outside the spacecraft. The demon robots were still running after them. 

Ea, who was riding the Enki, swiftly fired laser beams at the demon robots and hit their leader. He then raptured Dumuzi and Inanna into his spacecraft.

After winning the war, the spacecrafts that descended from the Marduk, except the Ninlil, flew back to the mother spaceship. The surviving rebels together with the remnants of the Anzu and the slain Nergal were transported back to Mars.

Anu recalled all the Anunnaki including Ea, Inanna, and the Earthling Dumuzi. Before they were transported to the mother spaceship, Ea warned Dumuzi to apologize humbly before Anu for his actions which damaged the Ninlil. 

Anu called up a council meeting. He informed them of the near passing of Nibiru, the appearance of black spots on the Sun's surface, the weakening of the Earth's magnetic field, the rise of its temperatures, the melting of its ice caps, and the possible cataclysm that would soon hit the planet. Ea insisted on the levitation of the human race. But Anu and the majority of the council decided to leave the Earthlings behind for aside of not enough time to rapture them and of not enough number of spacecrafts to lift them up they had gone wicked and not worthy to live in Nibiru.

The Anunnaki spacecraft model

Just before the deluge started, the Marduk flew back to Nibiru. Most of the Anunnaki were on it but some of them decided to stay. Those who remained, watched the destruction from their spacecrafts, while circling the Earth. Among those who stayed was Ea who had secretly instructed the pious man Ziuzudra (the biblical Noah) on how to build an ark sealed with bitumen to save him, his family, the animals and all who would believe him from the huge tidal waves which would cover most of the lowlands. 

Soon Earth began to shake, by an electromagnetic force before unknown it was agitated. The South Pole's huge ice sheets smashed into each other, broke, and fell into the ocean, creating a gigantic tsunami. The tidal wave continued North, until it reached and submerged the city of Edin (meaning "the home from far-away", it was the first Anunnaki settlement on Earth, hence its name; the biblical Eden, located underneath today's Persian Gulf) and all the inhabited lands of the Anunnaki, together with their gold mines, spaceports and cities.

Upon reaching Nibiru, Inanna and Dumuzi were called up at the royal chamber of destinies. Immediately they went inside the said chamber. At first Dumuzi was puzzled to see Anu as a 12-year old boy instead of a white bearded old man. Inanna told him that in Nibiru the oldest looked as the youngest for in that planet they grew younger as they aged.

When Anu together with his council called out for Dumuzi to account of what happened to the Ninlil, Dumuzi told the king every detail of the truth and that it was an accident to break its wing. Impressed by Dumuzi's sincerity, King Anu exclaimed, "What can we do with him?" Then he ordered the chamberlains, the Kurgurra and the Galatur, to offer Dumuzi a drink from the fountain of eternal life and a food of immortality respectively. The food of immortality was a white stone, known to the Nibiruans as the dagon, in which a new name is engraved for its eater. But Dumuzi who was once advised by Ea through telepathy when he was in Irkalla that he could accept oil to anoint himself and accept whatever clothing would be offered but he must not partake the food or drink as it would be the food of death, refused the offer and thus missed the chance for immortality that would have been his. He thought that the same principle in Irkalla would still be applied in Nibiru.  

The name written on the white stone is Enmenduranna which means "May the Power of the Fortress of Heaven be mine!" which is phonetically read as Immen-Darna which could be transliterated into Tagalog as "Mapasaakin ang Kapangyarihan ng Kastilyo ng Liwanag!" Hence "Darna" is not only a simple anagram of Narda but it means the "Fortress of Heaven", the feminine personification of the Paraclete as a warrior-savior. Though in ancient Baltic belief, the Darna is the harmony which is the core of faith which emphasizes the sacredness of Nature as first and foremost -- that is, (1) Darna aspires to inner harmony: people at peace with themselves; (2) it endeavors to create harmony at home and in the community; (3) it pursues harmony with the ancestors; and (4) it quests for harmony with the universe, i.e. with life and with the divinity.

Anu was genuinely puzzled when Dumuzi refused his hospitality, though anointing himself and accepting the red robe but not immortality.

"There is a fundamental question which every Earthling has asked through the ages -- 'Why should I be born to die and, knowing I will die, what is the point of living?' Yet here you are, a mortal, refusing the food of immortality," exclaimed Anu. "Why did you not eat and drink? Now you will not live. Tell me, what came over you?"

Dumuzi honestly answered him that it was the will of Ea that he had followed and obeyed.

"Why has Ea revealed to the impure Earthling the heart of heaven and earth?" asked Anu to his council. "Why he has made the Earthling so intelligent yet denied him eternal life?" Then he turned to Inanna, "Take him back to Earth for him to live fully his mortal life and summon your father to me. Take the spacecraft Astraea, which is a gift from the people of Sirius, as your new ship."

Inanna together with Dumuzi immediately left the royal chamber and went straight to the spaceport. They took aboard the Astraea, where, to their astonishment, they found the Merkaba, the seven discs of heavenly garments, the twelve discs of the zodiac, the three discs of destinies, and the Tablet of Destinies which contained the Enlil. But instead of returning to the royal chamber to inform Anu about it, Inanna decided to obey first Anu's command of bringing Dumuzi back to Earth and of recalling Ea back to Nibiru. Without haste, they flew to the outerspace. Realizing that they had been followed by a small spacecraft, manned by the Kurgurra and the Galatur, and thinking that they were sent to bring them back to Irkalla, Inanna flew swiftly all over the Sirius Sector and outwitted the i-robots by passing through a star-gate towards Earth. But Inanna had forgotten to insert the destiny disc that could manipulate the time they wanted to go through the star-gate.

The day of her arrival on Earth was on July 22, 2013, Monday, at 11:15 A.M. PDT at exact rising of the Full Moon. As she entered the atmosphere hovering over the Pacific Ocean an unarmed multi-warhead ballistic missile, named Minuteman III, of the U.S. Department of Defense, which was intentionally fired at the  island of Kwajalein Atoll, East of Guam for a nuclear testing, hit the Astraea, which impact, together with the effects of two warring storms in the Pacific, had thrown the latter towards the Laguna de Bay. The Astraea crashed landed at the peak of Mt. Tagapo, the highest point of Talim Island, which is located at the middle of Laguna de Bay. The crash was followed by the quake at the Prince Edward Islands region in South Africa, the volcanic ash eruption in Indonesia and the flooding of the radioactive waters from the tsunami-wrecked nuclear reactors of Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant towards the Pacific Ocean at the rate of 300 long tons per day.

A side-view of the Tablet of Destinies.

Dumuzi awakened without Inanna inside the spacecraft. He saw the heavenly garment discs, the zodiac discs, the destiny discs, and the tablet which had been scattered beside him. But he could not find the Merkaba. Taking the discs and putting the tablet on a compartment at the pilot's area, Dumuzi started to fly the spacecraft to look for the missing Inanna.

Looking over the lake, Dumuzi saw a rock where Inanna was lying naked on the red robe and seemed lifeless. Not very far from Inanna, Dumuzi saw the Merkaba shining beneath the lake.


 
Dumuzi found out later that Inanna was no longer breathing and dead. He lamented for her death over a time. But then he had remembered about the tablet. He switched it on and scanned the data on how to revive Inanna. He then took the anointing oil, which was put in a golden ostrich egg goblet decorated with lapis lazuli, given to him by the Nibiruans and anointed Inanna with it, from the head, her entire body, and to her feet. Then he wrapped her inside the red Nibiruan robe. He put on an aquanaut suit. Taking the wrapped Inanna with him inside the spacecraft, Dumuzi submerged the spacecraft towards the Merkaba. 

After being transported out of the spacecraft, Dumuzi holding the wrapped Inanna swam towards the Merkaba. He put Inanna inside a crystal cylindrical hydro-thermal tube full with the waters of the Abzu at the very core of the Merkaba. He then put the zodiac discs in the twelve compartments located on the woman-body-like web that was wrapped around the tube. There were seven compartments in vertical position in front of the tube in which the heavenly garment discs were put by Dumuzi. As soon as the discs lit, Dumuzi, with the use of a smartwatch as a remote control, quickly teleported himself back to the spacecraft.

On board the spacecraft, Dumuzi flew away and hovered over the lake. The wheels of the Merkaba began to rotate creating blinding light at its speed. The rotation made the waves bigger and created a louder sound. Its effects included the disruption of the electricity of the whole island, the stoppage of the boat service to and from the mainland due to the rising waters of the lake, and panic among the islanders. Still hovering, Dumuzi waited there until the night came.

But as the storm entered the Laguna de Bay, Dumuzi flew the spacecraft towards a waterfall along the trail towards Mt. Tagapo which was often called by the islanders as Bundok ng Susong Dalaga (the Maiden's Breasts' Hills). He had managed to hide the spacecraft inside a cave behind the waterfall. 

As the storm subsided, Dumuzi made a small fishing boat. Wearing an islander clothing, he fished within the lake on the third day -- at dawn of July 24, 2013. Dumuzi had witnessed a strange thing happening -- a burst of light emanated from the Merkaba and a shining baby girl wrapped in the red robe was thrown from it and landed on the boat. As Dumuzi picked up the baby and cuddled it, the Merkaba stopped rotating and its lights switched off.

From then on, Dumuzi took care of the baby and owned her as his daughter. He then lived normally like an ordinary villager in a village of native community whom he found living near the lake. He used a nickname Juan and lived with the elderly widow, Asay, who adopted him as a son. With the encouragement of Asay, Dumuzi, now Juan, agreed that his "daughter" be baptized and be named Leonarda Luzviminda. Hence, early in the morning on August 20, 2013, Tuesday, during the second rising of the Full Moon in Leo, which was somewhat a rare event coincided with the unleashing of the Sun of a powerful storm which was sending an enormous cloud of superheated particles rocketing toward Earth at a mind-boggling speed of 2 million mph (3.3 million km/h), Juan together with Asay cuddling the infant sailed to the mainland. They were heeding to the foothills of the Sierra Madre where four barangays -- namely: Darangan, Pantok, Palangoy and Bilibiran -- were celebrating their fiestas in honor of San Bernardo de Claraval. Along the way they met the people preparing the carriage that would be used to carry the image of the saint for the evening procession. They went to San Bernardo Chapel in Pantok where an early morning Mass was celebrated in honor of the saint. Within the Holy Mass a mass baptism rite for infants of Binangonan was done. The priest commented on Juan why not named the child as Bernarda after the saint instead of Leonarda. Asay told the priest that the girl was born under the zodiac Leo and it was also a tradition in her family that the girls' name should start with the letter L so that their initials would be L.L. following the initials of the mysterious girlfriend of Dr. Jose Rizal. Asay however nicknamed the girl Narda.

Narda grew up to be a very beautiful and intelligent girl. One night on her fourteenth birthday, Narda saw a "falling star". She ran and followed it. The big fiery object fell at the shore of the lake. It created a crater. But due to a thick smoke emanating from it, Narda could not see anything. As she was about to go back home she saw the shining dagon at the edge of the lake. She picked it up and showed it to "Juan" and her Lola Asay and told them how she found it. Dumuzi hurriedly ran to the crater created by the "falling star". The smoke had already subsided. He was very excited to see a dingir in the crater. He went down and tried to open it. There he found the unconscious Kurgurra, which was slightly four feet tall, and Galatur, which was as big as a small bird. He took them out.

After covering the crater with bamboos and sands, Dumuzi carried the robosapien on his back while holding on his hand the nanobot towards Mt. Tagapo. Unknown to Dumuzi, Narda had followed him. Upon reaching the waterfall, Dumuzi got inside the cave behind it. Narda followed them secretly.

After the i-robots were revived, they were surprised to see Dumuzi in a very different style of clothing. They asked him the where-about of Inanna. Dumuzi told them  everything and about Inanna's transformation into a little baby who was now a 14-year old girl without any memory of her past. The i-robots told Dumuzi that they had really no bad intention of chasing them. They were only sent by Anu to give him the dagon, which he had lost during the crash.

Narda, who overheard the whole conversation, asked them how was that possible that she was an alien being turned into a mortal girl. Before she was being answered she noticed the Astraea. Quickly she ran to the spacecraft which opened as soon as she touched it. She got inside in awe. Dumuzi and the i-robots followed her inside. She then found the tablet. She asked them what was that for. The robosapien took the tablet, put it on a compartment at the pilot's area and attached it to a mother computer. The spacecraft's engine then started. Dumuzi drove it towards the location of the Merkaba.

The Astraea hovered above the Merkaba. Narda saw the Merkaba in amazement as it emanated light. Suddenly, the spirit of Inanna in a form of a shining woman made light appeared to them inside the crystal cylindrical hydro-thermal tube at the center of the Merkaba. She called out to Narda to come to her. Narda, who was already wearing a Nibiruan aquanaut suit, was transported down through the ladder of rings towards the shining woman of light. Also wearing a Nibiruan aquanaut suit, Dumuzi, who was carrying the tablet, followed Narda towards the Merkaba. The robosapien, who was holding the discs of destinies, and the nanobot who was carrying the iron rod also went down. 

"Do not be afraid, Narda. I am Shekinah, the living spirit of the celestial fortress of light... I am the divine spirit of the cosmos... I am the Lady Wisdom who walks on the sea... I am the spirit of Hope who has been left alone in the Tablet of Destinies when all the spirits of evil had been unleashed by Ereshkigal... I am the daughter of the Enlil, the Great Light which is the Great Creator of All and which is the Lord of all Destinies. And you are Inanna, the last High Priestess of the celestial fortress of light, the keeper of the Enlil. Come, so that we may become one... so that you will be in me and I will be in you. Together as one we will fight against all evil and conquer darkness in the universe," said the Shekinah.

Narda was succumbed by the crystal cylindrical hydro-thermal tube. The spirit Shekinah enveloped Narda and then told her to swallow the white stone that she possessed and shout the name written on it. Narda swallowed the white stone as she was told. Seeing that, the robosapien pointed the iron rod at the tablet. Dumuzi was amazed to see the Enlil, the ever-revolving sphere, that had gotten out from the box. The nanobot then threw all discs of destinies at the sphere.



The Shekinah moved Dumuzi's spirit which made him shouted in an exalted manner, "Immen!" Rays coming from the sphere hit the Merkaba. The wheels of the Merkaba began to rotate in different axis. The zodiac discs lit like stars and emanated the symbols of the zodiac signs each inside a circle. The heavenly garment discs also lit like stars and emanated the symbols of the seven chakras of enlightenment. Then the Merkaba burst in fire. Soon a double helical ladder-like lights entwined Narda and Shekinah. They became one and transformed into a seraph-like form of Inanna. As the double helical ladder-like lights turned into a prism of lights similar to the magen-David, the seraph-like form of Inanna shouted, "Darna!"

And lo! The light bursts out like an atomic bomb. Narda was now fully transformed into the superwoman named Darna. During Narda's transformation into Darna, Dumuzi had also been transformed into a young boy who looked like very similar to Anu except that he is not bald. Later, the villagers knew the said boy by the nickname Ding (short for dingir, a spacecraft or a man from a spacecraft) and as a younger brother of Narda. Ding had been made the keeper of the Tablet of Destinies and the two i-robots, Kurgurra and Galatur, became his attendants.

The i-robots told them that their descent to Earth in its future dimension was not an accident for they were there sent on a mission by Anu to save the planet and the human race from the destruction that would soon be brought by Ereshkigal and her revived son-consort Nergal.

Asay thought that Juan had been killed after his banca was overturned and capsized by a storm while fishing. Narda had introduced Ding to her Lola Asay as her lost younger brother. Ding was christened as Bernardo and sometimes people would call him the little Bernardo Carpio of Susong Dalaga or by the nickname Narding or Ding.

Narda as a young girl had lived a normal life though she had secretly undergone a warrior's training with Ding. She had also been taught about the Nibiruan civilization; the secret programs encoded in the zodiac discs; and the progress of human advancement in robotics, nanotech, and genetic engineering since the year 2020.

Unknown to Narda, Nergal had been revived by the spirit of Aidoneus who had entered his body and went down to Earth with his legion through a star-gate which directly opened at Petra, in Jordan, during the Messianic times. In Petra, Nergal met his mother Ereshkigal who never aged due to her vampiric activities -- that is, she preyed on the blood of infants and small children and on the endorphins of men whom she had seduced into sex with her and took their pituitary glands during the sexual climaxes. Nergal after becoming a sexual consort of his mother had tried winning back the rule of Earth by brainwashing mankind into lust and war. Together they created an underworld kingdom, beneath the oceans, that was connected through subterranean tunnels, which activities were centered on the preparations for the apocalyptic war.

After finishing high school, Narda took the scholarship exam at the Philippine National Police Academy in Cavite and passed. She took the course Bachelor of Science in Public Safety.

Narda had only began using her Nibiruan-Martian alter-ego, Darna, after Ereshkigal came out from the fiery deep of the Pacific Ring of Fire together with Nergal and his legion. It happened later after Narda had won the Miss Universe crown and title. At this time she was already 20 years old more and had moved to Barangay Masambong in Quezon City and served as a Police Chief Inspector in a special police intelligence unit.

Later in every transformation of Narda into Darna, Ding would always ride on her back and would fight with her against the monsters created by Ereshkigal. Together with them were the i-robots, Kurgarra and Galatur. Among those monsters created by Ereshkigal were Valentina, the Hawk Woman, the Leech Woman, the Planet Woman, the Giants and many others including the original monsters she had unleashed in the ancient times. But the last powerful enemies that Darna should face would be Nergal and Ereshkigal who would assumed a lot of human disguises before turning back into the dragons of the ancient past.

P.S. Nabasa ko na talagang si Angel Locsin na ang gaganap muli na Darna pero hindi sa TV kundi sa sine at gagawin ito ng Star Cinema. Sana ang origin story na isinulat ni Bernardo Carpio ang pipiliing backstory para sa Darna dahil ito ay mas makatotohanan at mas angkop sa orihinal na konsepto ni Mars Ravelo at naaayon ngayon sa mga pinag-uusapan ng buong mundo.
