«The war reached us all, in the heat of battle, we well knew the sovereign wolf God and his ferocious consecrated warrior brotherhoods that, through magical rituals, acquired fury for combat, assuming the faculties of the wolf and after his death triumphant, Vaélico, thus referred to by the Vetones, accompanies them on their journey to the beyond.»

In 1212 three kings put aside their differences and, shoulder to shoulder, galloped and charged in the Navas de Tolosa against the Almohad army of Miramamolín Al Nasir that was determined to reconquer Spain and reach Rome itself.

Horsemen, cavalry, council militias, military orders, Templars, Calatravos, Santiaguistas, volunteers, gentle men ready to fight the half moon. The confrontation was cruel. Terrible scenarios with metal ripping and tearing ...

When it seemed that all was lost for Christians, the banner of the three wolves was raised...

It is Lopez de Haro who, together with his son and his Castilian knights and innkeepers, set out at the head of the vanguard determined to immolate themselves. King Alfonso VIII of Castile, who looks at it excitedly, launches the attack shouting "Here, Bishop, we all die." Pedro II of Aragon and Sancho VII of Navarra followed him ...

The epic and the enthusiasm seizes everyone and it is that the three kings ride and charge just through the hills of the Navas de Tolosa de Sierra Morena...

It is time to kill the dragon, it is time to tame the ego within us, but also to overthrow all kinds of tyrants, with their new faces and new appearances. Those new gods of modern societies, who try to take away our humanity, don't you see the effects of the crazy technology that has already usurped it from us?

We must not ignore the teachers of Tradition or Tolkien himself - who pointed out in his work the threats of machines and industrial hell against the natural environment, where technology was used by the forces of evil -, who put the emphasis on depersonalization and separation of man from nature as some of the evils of the modern world. It's time to slay this new dragon! In the words of Ronnie James Dio, the magical hard-rock voice of epic and heroic fantasy, it is time to put an end to “electronic serfdom”…

“Silence - we hunt for the queen

Sign of the cross

And pray in-between 

Look by the light of the day

She's hiding till dark

Waiting to play hey-hey

Something's taken a child

And it all must end

Time to be killing the dragon again

Silence - we'll hunt for the lord

He takes crimson and gold

Gave ice to the cold

Oh to be never afraid

Of wolves at the door

Howling for more

More's been empty for years

And it all must end

Time to be killing the dragon again

Kneel and behold your new king

Digital dreams

And wonderful things to tease you

Small gods with electrical hearts

And it all will end

Time to be killing the dragon”

The viada according to the RAE is the violent departure or departure of a person or an animal. It is also defined as the start-up or starting of an engine. With various meanings in disuse such as an attack or the defeat of enemy troops.

Much of it you will find in the pages of this graphic work. A compilation loaded with lights and shadows, myths and legends, ancestral references and historical identities. There is love and also many passages of war. But above all there is a purpose that you will discover through a path of the spirit, a pagan path, a magical path, a path of cultures, a path of action and a path of death.

Because this is a journey and a warrior path. An intimate and direct blasting—violent of course, since it is a first radical shock to your own sensitivity and subjectivity—of your reality. An inner revolution to start surfing the wave.

protected, with this sign the enemy is defeated"). Pelayo attributed his success to the use of this protective emblem. Whether or not the story about Don Pelayo and the battle of Covadonga is more reliable is told: if it was in 718 or 722, the number of participants according to the chronicles, recent studies talking about a riot of four uncles, what if it ended Reconquista was coined in contemporary times... the truth is that myths and legends convey to us the vision of what our ancestors believed, felt and lived at that time —let's stop judging the past with today's values"—, and That collective feeling and thought at that key moment, that fact, was the flame that lit and motivated the slow but persistent advance towards the south in that process of recovery of the lost kingdom, the so-called Reconquista, towards the definitive unity of Christian kingdoms, concluded with the capture of Granada in 1492.

The Iberians gained fame for their fighting prowess, but their writing systems, their trade, and their art show that they were much more than great warriors. Their mother tongue "Iberian" was spoken from the Hérault River (France) to Porcuna (Jaén) and they left thousands of inscriptions written in an original alphabet of signs that was a mystery for centuries that little by little is deciphering ... Written on coins , lead sheet, amphorae, mosaic, stone stele, silver crockery or trousseau, painted and engraved ceramics, copper plates, silver trousseau, walls ... Its enormous diffusion in the peninsula reveals to us how consolidated it was. The same alphabet was also shared with the Lusitanian and Proto-Basque languages.

[In the image the head of the wolf on the pectoral disc of the armor of the Iberian warriors]

The representation of the wolf in Iberian iconography, as a cult totemic animal, with strong roots in pastoral populations, related to myths and religious symbolism, represents ardor, heroism and warrior mysticism. Combat scenes between wolf and man are common, some symbolize death threat, lineage of power, protection in combat ... and the cult of the night, the path or initiation rite, in the passage to the afterlife, lupus as a guide in the afterlife ...

So recurrent in Iberian art, we find it in the sculptural ensembles of "El Pajarillo", in the Elche-Archena style ceramics, in the mints of the Iltirta and Iltiraka mint, in the "Copa del Carnassier", in the "Torso de Guerrero de la Alcudia"... and in the "Pátera de Perotito" where a young man, his hands are raised in a ritual position, is devoured by the wolf, merging with him, in his transit with the beyond ...

Because the wolf is also death, dying to live, dying to resurrect, when we are eaten we will renew our spirit, as a different being that is reborn as a new man. A journey of the initiate to the world of spirits, a descent to the bottom of the caverns, twinned with a wolf guide who will transfer us his great qualities...

The image comes from the bronze Celtiberian hospitality Tsera in the shape of a wolf in zenith perspective that appeared in Burgos, related to a Celtic myth of the end of the world, known as the myth of the “Wolf that devours the Sun”.

Before the Iberians, Celts, Phoenicians, Greeks and Tartessos, there were the Atlanteans, those inhabitants of the most advanced civilization - their technology, their knowledge, their ships, their cars, their wealth, their mines, their constructions, their culture, their hidden idols, their sacred kingdoms...—which disappeared—perhaps due to an earthquake or a great deluge—completely 11,000 years ago. It was one of those lost continents like Hyperboria, Lemuria and Mu, whose memory remains submerged in oblivion.

Atlantis is the seed of our own civilization, its empire spread over the planet - it is possible that the Greek myths had their Atlantean birth in Iberia. A large commercial port city, where boats enter and leave with their mythical metals. Its origin, wrapped in myth, legend and fantasy, is still one of the great enigmas for archaeologists, who believe it could be found on the coast of Cádiz, near the Pillars of Hercules, at the "end of the world". of which the classics of Antiquity spoke.

Many mysteries and secret keys of this legendary civilization to decipher. Was it the lost city that was under water that Plato was talking about? Did the Atlanteans invade Egypt? Was the Great Sphinx of Giza a vestige of Atlantis? Did the Atlanteans build the pyramids? Did they trade with King Solomon? Did your navigators reach America? Did they annihilate the Lemurian civilization? Was Tartessos perhaps Atlantis?

"Evil cannot create anything new, it can only corrupt or ruin what the forces of good have invented or built"

What would our dearest Tolkien think if his work were modified and influenced by modern stupidity, political correctness, language and inclusive usages?

Here is a defense of the teacher against the forces of evil. Our freedom and right to dissent and shout out loud Tolkien untouchable!

***

Not all that glitters is gold,

not all wandering people are lost;

frost does not reach the deep roots,

the vigorous old man does not wither.

From the ashes a fire will rise,

and a light will appear in the shadows;

the uncrowned will be king again,

They will forge the broken sword again.

Cancel culture is the withdrawal of support, be it moral, financial, digital, and even social, from those people or organizations that are deemed inadmissible for their comments and actions. Those, those or "those" who transgress the new established order. The perfectly orchestrated trolls and bots to boycott and stigmatize the heretic. Everything fits here, we have all seen the virtual lynchings of those who criticize the system, who do not adhere to any side, and are tightly controlled by the thought police. Artists, writers, rockers, metalheads, famous freethinkers who use "non-inclusive" language and have been defenestrated and burned in those public bonfires. It is the new modern inquisition that limits freedoms and censors all dissidence.

Through newspeak —what is language but the soul of peoples transmitted from generation to generation! We think through it and it guides our behavior—a new change in mentality, another step towards cultural hegemony, a new victory to surrender to this modernity. That revisionism and that political correctness that subjects masters like Tolkien or Lovecraft, to comics like Tintin, Conan, the classics and popular tales and a very long etcetera...

Allow us the outburst and exaggeration, but we believe they will end the great works and authors of Literature. The rich language provided by the geniuses —such as Quevedo, Lope, Calderón or Cervantes— of our Golden Age, full of beauty and greatness, as well as comedy, satire and scathing baroque insults, will soon be persecuted and we will have to apologize because these soldier poets, eager for a spirit of adventure and militia, were born in our bull's skin. The century of arms and letters will be cancelled, its virtues and its universal themes of truth, honor, love, spirit, courage, heroism, chivalry or country will be reduced to ashes in this "reversal" of the politically correct.

Once the Cantabrian wars were over, the conquest of the Empire in Iberia came to an end. Some 200 years of colonization and Romanization, a process of assimilation of the Roman way of life and its culture, in which the barbarian pre-Roman peoples fought and heroically resisted.

The adhesion and seduction of the barbarian peoples —Celtic Hispania— to Rome was a natural process. The society of leaderships - of merit, of lineage, of heroic ethics - of the Indo-European world - aristocratic, hierarchical and warrior -, that backbones the Iberian barbarians, find in Rome and its metaphysical ideal of Imperium - with the cult, oath and loyalty to the emperor, who along with heroes and kings are pontifex, bridges between heaven and earth — a continuation of his spiritual and warlike worldview, but on a much higher political scale.

Roman Hispania would comprise from the Roman landing in Ampurias between 218 BC. and the beginning of the V century with the Visigothic entry. It was fundamental for the Empire and the cradle of great rulers.

The Romans called the Iberian Peninsula Hispania. Etymologically there are many theories, from meaning it as the land of rabbits, or I-span-ya to the northern land (of Africa), where the Phoenicians lived. Or land where metals are forged, or even called Hispalis, a word of Iberian origin that would mean the western city. Although for the Greeks it would initially be the Ophioússa Peninsula, land of snakes.

Ispania the Romans listened to the Carthaginians and Iber what the Greeks heard. These finally named it Iberia. The Romans stayed with Hispania.
