The Brand Upon His Skin - Twix

The tattoo of Twix explained from top to bottom:

The Eyes of the Gods.
In the center is the All Seeing Eye that shines upon the earth. It sees all and roams the heavens looking to expose the evil that is done under its gaze. To the left of the All Seeing Eye is the Eye that Hides. It watches when the All Seeing Eye has left the Heavens to gaze elsewhere, but it turns its face to the evils of man, seeing less and less until the world is cloaked in darkness and the evils roam freely. To the right is the Eye that Blinks. Even when the Eye that Hides has closed itself to the world, the many eyes of the Gods remain, blinking tears at the folly of man. When they have seen too much, they fall to earth, never to see again.

The Eye within the Eye.
This is the Eye of the Sha. It sees where the All Seeing Eye does not. It sees that which is hidden to all other eyes. There are worlds that walk alongside our own, and the Eye within the Eye sees them all. This is the center of great magicks, and the fount of wisdom to those who choose such a path. It reveals the ways of the Dead, the souls of the Living, and the gathering of Powers. In men, it is closed, but when it has been opened it will see into forever.

The Teeth of the Dead.
Beneath the Eye within the Eye is the Teeth of the Dead. These are the instruments of command. From left to right: The Dominion Over the Beasts, giving authority over the animals of the earth, the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea. The Influence Over the Spirits, giving authority over those which are not Gods, but who move in the places between the worlds. This power is not as great as that over the Beasts, but still influential. The Audience of the Gods, giving access to the Gods that they might hear the Sha's requests over any others. Finally, the Mercy of the Swarm, which gives the Sha protection and parlance with insects of all kinds. It is not the way of the Sha to hold dominion over these creatures, but they will not attack him directly unless it is at the direction of a Ch-tka. If the Sha is wise and gentle, the Swarm may even ally themselves for limited times, but will disperse at any real danger or distraction.

The Cradle.
All life comes from death. This is a fact that must be well understood by the Sha. For every destruction, something will be born, and for every birth, something must be destroyed. This Symbol has another meaning, for like any child of the world, the Sha has been given great power but not the wisdom to know how to use it. Thus, the child within is dark, for no one can know what it will become. Be the child grow into a force for good or evil, it will still find itself within the bounds of death, and so is the world spared from its power.
