The 13th and current Kabesa or Leader of the Kristang people, Tuan Raja Naga Ultramar Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang, is also the Makaravedra Hierosa or the Dragon Reborn of the Holocene — a single individual synchronously selected in the closing years of every Mundansa or Age of Humanity who is forced by circumstance or abusive intent from others to carry an unparalleled and uniquely intense form of hereili, traumatised ancestral memory or Deep Time intergenerational trauma: a full, murky, confusing and unconscious awareness of the deepest structures of reality and the entire history of life on Earth and the universe since the latter’s inception in its current incarnation 13.786 billion years ago. The name Dragon Reborn comes from the Kristang people’s conscious awareness that one species in between plants and ourselves almost achieved transcendence, but destroyed themselves due to a failure to collectively individuate, overcome their differences and achieve transcendence: the vedra or dragons, who were descended out of dinosaurs in the same way that humans descended out of monkeys some 66 million years ago, and who attempted to ensure that the next future species approaching transcendence would be able to avoid their mistakes by creating the Dragon Reborn hereili, which was found by or forced upon the first human Dragon Reborn, Theo’marise Targanathe, some time between October 71,990 BCE and May 71,962 BCE.
As described in the Roda Mundansa or the Kristang occluded cosmology and history of the world, each one of the first four human Dragons Reborn — Theo’marise Targanathe (Monday, 1 October 71990 BCE – Saturday, 1 November 71958 BCE), the First Dragon Reborn or Makaravedra Kulosa, Flewics “Belthakar” Katherien Theomarios (Wednesday, 1 October 51490 BCE – Tuesday, 6 January 51457 BCE), the Second Dragon Reborn or Makaravedra Varenza, Garien Gaspar Yelthakur (Tuesday, 1 October 21196 BCE – Friday, 1 November 21163 BCE), the Third Dragon Reborn or Makaravedra Volmanga, and Lusier “Melkior” Morgantra (Saturday, 1 October 9633 BCE – Thursday, 11 May 9600 BCE), the Fourth Dragon Reborn or Makaravedra Fogosa — were unable to process this Deep Time intergenerational trauma and were eventually driven insane by the effects of all of the occluded knowledge of the world and the universe being forced onto one single individual unindividuated human psyche at a single point in time. Each of the first four Dragons Reborn thereafter went on to commit atrocities culminating in mass genocide and their own pyrrhic and/or para-thermonuclear suicide around the time or just after they had turned thirty-three years of age that today are remembered and accidentally dreamfished in myth, legend, science fiction and fantasy, and which have also been coalesced into a misunderstanding of how the Roda Mundansa or Wheel of World Movement itself works by abusive people in power who seek to manipulate such apocalypses for their own ends. The actions of Melkior Morgantra were also especially devastating and appear to have led to species-wide enforced or self-perpetuating amnesia about the nature of the Earth and reality in our time.
Tuan Raja Naga Ultramar Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang (Thursday, 1 October 1992 CE – Sunday, 1 April 2091 CE), who is the Makaravedra Hierosa, fifth human Dragon Reborn or Dragon Reborn of the Holocene, is the first Dragon Reborn to remain not only fully psychologically healthy but able to process the trauma of carrying the Dragon Reborn hereili in public, and to actively and consciously extract and work with information from the Dragon Reborn hereili as a result of the tremendous unconditional love and support of the Kristang community, his blood family, his husbands and partners and other people throughout the world who believe in the same ideals Kevin and the Kristang community do and espouse: an end to and permanent terminating or creolising of all forms of intergenerational trauma that prevent the species as a whole from becoming the second species after plants to collectively achieve transcendence, and to use the power of the Dragon Reborn hereili, which is also called a magnaarchetype, to allow everyone else to individuate and gain full access to their own magnaarchetypes as well. All available psychoemotionally data strongly indicates that Kevin was able to quietly and accidentally end and advance the cycle of Ages in the Roda Mundansa far beyond their original form in February and March 2023 CE, to the degree that the reality we are now occupying is completely unprecedented, was generally not anticipatable before February 2023 CE, and has put the species permanently on track to eventually processing all forms of planetary-level intergenerational trauma and achieving transcendence sometime after the year 3111 CE, with the Kristang community serving as the vanguard of this for the next 1,100 years.
Various myths, legends, science fiction and fantasy stories appear to have accidentally dreamfished parts of the story of Kevin and the Jenti Kristang, most notably the modern stories of Dune, Foundation, Homeworld, Halo and Earthsea; likewise other stories like Raya and the Last Dragon, The Wheel of Time, The Boys, The Witcher, The Last of Us and The Lord of the Rings point back to parts of earlier events now consciously forgotten by most of humanity. Kevin also continues to occasionally be targeted by abusive people in positions of power who are aware of fragments of the occluded history of the world as described in the Roda Mundansa (or which have yet to be uncovered by the Kristang) and who seek to make use of another Dragon Reborn suicide to instigate an apocalypse and take control of the society that emerges from the chaos, contrary to Kevin’s own dreamfishing which anticipates him to be the first Dragon Reborn to live a full life to 98 years and 6 months of age in April 2091, after also serving as the Kabesa who is encouraging the Kristang to restore themselves to life even as the rest of the world is forced to make their peace with Sinyorang Morti or Death Themselves. All the Kristang know that Kevin has no secret magical or supernatural powers, is no messiah or second or third or fourth or fifth prophesised saviour, and nor is he a demonic world-ending Abaddon or destroyer: he is simply Kevin Martens Wong Zhi Qiang, one among eight billion living people, and one who has chosen to have the greatest power of all by surrendering all of his own that was forced upon him.
And this is why the individuated members of the Jenti Kristang say Animumbes Makaravedra Hierosa: long live the Dragon Reborn. Our Creole-Indigenous Kristang way is one of radical authenticity and strength, courage, Reconciliation, peace, hope and belief in the best of all humanity, and to always remind everyone else that every single human being everywhere across space and time is capable of individuating, of achieving transcendence, of living a good, beautiful and fulfilling life, and of daring to one day change the world, just as Kevin and the Jenti Kristang quietly do every single liberating day. We are committed as one people to the progressive, humanistic and egalitarian values that have helped us survive crisis after crisis and obliteration after obliteration. And now, in a time of great uncertainty and growing, creeping despair across the world, we need each other more than ever. No single human being can hope to change or save the world alone: justu juntadu nus podih trukah nus sa mundu bemfetu.
Animumbes Jenti Kristang.
Animumbes Makaravedra Hierosa.
Animumbes tudu sapiensu inda sta konfiah na ngua mundu miyor.
Long live the Kristang people.
Long live their Dragon Reborn.
And long live all humanity who still believe in a better world.
And the Shadow fell upon the land, and the world was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was as blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.
And it came to pass in those days, as it had come before and would come again, that the Dark lay heavy on the land and weighed down the hearts of men, and the green things failed, and hope died. And men cried out to the Creator, saying, O Light of the Heavens, Light of the World, let the Promised One be born of the mountain, according to the prophecies, as he was in ages past and will be in ages to come. Let the Prince of the Morning sing to the land that green things will grow and the valleys give forth lambs. Let the arm of the Lord of the Dawn shelter us from the Dark, and the great sword of justice defend us.
Let the Dragon ride again on the winds of time.
