The Cannibal Within by Mark Mirabello Page B

experience of the transhumans—the ‘Rite of the White Stains’—is the moral equivalent of rape. The transhuman male—incapable of tenderness or affection— bites, penetrates, thrusts, and pollutes. A tyrant during copulation, his penis is a living weapon.
    When the transhuman father rapes—when he ejaculates his reproductive filth—his preferred orifices are the mouth and the vagina. The anus, the sewer of the body, is viewed with contempt. Only a lower primate—such as simian man— would use such a vile playground.
    Adulthood
At roughly the age of thirty, the transhuman becomes an adult. Swearing an ancient oath—the ‘Oath of the Four Obligations’—the beast promises to ‘rule, fight, hunt, and procreate.’
    When the female monsters come of age, they celebrate a sickening rite which involves food, eroticism, and torture. The males, in contrast, signify adulthood by circumcising themselves with their own teeth.
During the male circumcision ritual—a ceremony characterized by perversion and degradation—the excised foreskin is proudly eaten by the father of the monster. The mother, meanwhile, sucks on the wound until the bleeding stops.
    All adults—males and females—are allowed to participate in the ‘Cannibal Hunts’ against their own species. Held in the tunnels thirteen times a year—always during the time of the dark moon—the Cannibal Hunts are the most sacred events in the life cycle of these monsters.
    During the Cannibal Hunts, small warrior bands stalk one another. Similar to the ‘Flower Wars’ of the Aztecs, the purpose is to provide victims for a gruesome feast.
    Suicide: How The Beasts Become Gods
The ancient Mayans of Mesoamerica believed suicides, who had their own protective goddess, would enjoy bliss everlasting.
    The transhumans have a similar notion. Those able to commit suicide, they believe, become the blessed dead—the powerful dead.
    By killing themselves, these monsters believe, they can ‘make death die.’ Willful self-destruction, they believe, is always followed by reincarnation in higher form.
    Transfigured, they will return as gods.
    How The Monsters Eat Themselves Alive To become gods—‘hunters on the other side’—the monsters practice a special suicide ritual. Called a ‘celibate death,’ they must eat themselves alive.
    To perform the deadly sacrament, the monster returns to the place of his birth. According to custom, his remains must be buried in the exact spot where he was born.
    After rubbing his body with honey, milk, and salt, the transhuman climbs into a freshly excavated pit. There—in a pre-meditated act of self-destruction—he will slowly starve himself to death.
    This death fast—the so-called celibate death—is a method of autocannibalism—eating oneself. Deprived of food— growing thinner and thinner—the body literally begins to digest itself.
    ‘May my flesh melt from my bones,’ declares the transhuman as he begins his terminal fast, ‘like the sap that drips from a burning tree.’
    Starving to death—which normally requires forty days and forty nights—is a hideous process. As surplus fat disappears, the skin becomes darker, drier, and more wrinkled. Females miss menstrual periods and become sterile—males become impotent. Gradually, the pulse rate and respiration slow, and the victim feels constant thirst, general weakness, and coldness in extremities.
    Finally, ravaged by hunger, the neck cannot support the weight of the head. By this time, the emaciated victim is too feeble to walk away from his own wastes.
    In the end, he suffers convulsions, paralysis, and death. According to their traditions, he will be re-incarnated as a god.
    How To Destroy A Transhuman
For all of their power, the monsters can be defeated. Since they bleed, they can be killed.
    With an edged weapon, the best method is to stab the brain, the eyes, the genitalia, or the area between the chest and the belly.
    The eyes, which expose the soul, are
