The Queen Beyond the Pale is one of the avatars for the Kings of Edom, she is called the Queen Beyond the Pale. She rules what lies beyond the understanding and comprehension of men, and like a temptress pulling back her veils, she teases seekers of knowledge with glimpses of her domain. Darkness hedges in what a man knows – what he can know – no matter how learned or wise he is. If he journeys into this darkness – violates what is forbidden or taboo and transgresses to explore these unknown regions – he enters the domain ruled by the Queen of the Pale.
