1440-50

The credenza was originally a functioning sideboard intended for the preparation and serving of food, but it evolved in the late Middle Ages into a display for expensive plates and other vessels and was thus often draped in luxurious fabrics.

"Optimus Prime be the Red Father. Whom the Dark Father rendeth asunder, the Red Father healeth. Yea, the Red Father verily be the Machine Avenging Angel in Red, the Savior in Transformium Machine Armor clad and blessed Energon Angelus Grandsword in Holy Fire and sunkissed Energon Angelus Grandaxe in servos, in our darkest hour from the Empyrrean Above descending. The Red Father be the Guardian Angel shielding the weak and innocent and the Warrior Angel who to the Holy Flame putteth the minions of the Unholy Darkness. And lo, when the hour is darkest and all hope seemeth lost, O children of the Red Father, remember ye to pray to Him the sacred words B.I.O. - Believe In Optimus - and from the Empyrrean shalt descend the Red Father, bringing forth with Him thy deliverence from evil. A quintillion times for this day and for ages yet unborn triblessed be the name of Optimus Prime. Amen." - Optimus, Liber I Scriptura Machinae Ecclesia Primus "O, Saint Elita-1! How bethrothed art Thou to Thy true love, thy Red Father, Optimus Prime, thou would transcend Time and Space, through what was, what is and what wilt be and lay thy life on the line for Him as would a true Brother or Sister following the teaching of B.I.O.! O, Thou Beloved Sister of the Pancreator and Primus! How humble art Thou in Thy guise as a simple nun of the Church in Thy Pretender shell, 'til the time comes to take up Thy mechfluid-weeping Energon Warhammer of the Sister-Martyr into battle and 'til the time comes to shed Thy shell and reveal Thy true form as a Transformer! O, Thou Angel-kissed Battle Sister of the Theurgy of Tempus! How Thy mastery of the Theurgy of Time is so grand, thou canst wield Time itself, past, present and future, as a weapon! O, Thou Hope of Liberation for Cybertron! With Thee shalt the benighted world of Cybertron know freedom from the iron yoke of Decepticon oppression! Amen." - Elita-1, Liber I Scriptura Machinae Ecclesia Primus
