[ Part I - Hall Of Entombment ]

Through Subterranean of Catacombs
We Hath Crawled To in this Dimly Lit
Hall Of Proportion
Few Ever See
Along Walls
Rise after Tier of Carven Painted Sacrophagi
Each in a Niche in the Stone
The Tiers Rising Up
To Be in the Gloom Above
Thousands of Carven
Stare Upon Us
We Who are Rendered and Insignificant
By This Vast of the Dead

[ Part II - Invocation To Seditious ]

And Here I
I who would be master of the Black
Have summoned you here
You who are to me
To share in the Kingdom that shall nr
Tonight we witness
The breaking of the chains which us

Who am I to know powers lurk and and Dream
in these Tombs
They hold secrets forgotten for three thousand
But I shall Learn shall teach me
See how they staring through their
Carven
Priests Monks Kheri Heb Rekbi Khet
The Mummified Remains of the Whores

Who Dare to Oppose Us
Out of the shall Avaris Rise

Gashed with Your Windpipes Cut
The Joints of your Backs are Apart

[ IV - Ruins ]

I knew were Accursed
so remote were these desert ruins
Crumbling and inarticulate the of
its walls was
Nearly hidden by the of the uncounted ages
It must have been before the first stones of
Memphis were
And the bricks of unbaked
Fear spoke the age worn stones
This desolate of the Deluge
This crumbling antidiluvial
Of the Eldest

the grim brooding desert Gods
Knew really took place here
indescribable struggles and bloodshed
Awoke some distant throng of spirits
And broke the tomblike silence of these
Time ravaged these night black ruins
Of vanguished and buried Temple of Belial

But as the wind diad away
Above the rim rose the
Blazing edge of the sun
in my fevered state
I swore that from some remote there came a
crash of metal
Like a Bronze gate
shut whose reverberations swelled out
To hail the rising Sun as hails in
From the banks of the

[This four-part epic is a tale very much inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, and to a lesser degree, Robert E. Howard. It tills the story of a rebellions Serpent cult who are plotting to overthrow Pharonic rule. They are attempting to raise the spirits of the ancient dead, to barness arcane knowledge and build an army of undead legions. The story takes place within the subterranean main ch.mber of the crypts of mummified reptiles (true enough, archaeologists have indeed unearthed entire necropolises containing thousand of mummified crocodiles, serpents, ancient Nile monitor lizards, and various other animals that were worshiped as personifications of the gods they represented). Within these dark and bloodstained halls are not only the remains of three millenia of generations of priests and worshippers, but also the mummified corpses of all manner of glorified reptilian deities. The leader of these rebels is standing in the midst of this vast array of Saurian entombment, inciting insurrection and preparing for some sort of violent revolution. Their ill-fated sedition comes to naught, however, when their temple is destroyed and they are all slain in a catastrophic violent climax. Whether this is perhaps divine intervention and retribution by the Sun god, Ra, or perhaps military action by the armies of the Pharaoh (who is a worshipper of Ra) putting down a violent rebellion, or merely the indiscriminate vengeance of the undead that the conspirators were seeking to enslave, is unclear. The passage that tells of the descruction and demise of the rebel fiends is reminiscent of the magickal/religious ceremony in The Book of Overthrowing Apep, in which the terrible monster serpent Apep is forever crushed by the Sun god, Ra, nver to rise up again. In the aftermath, all that is left of the Temple, the Serpent Cult and their subterranean catacombs of the tombs is a mass of rubble and forgotten ruins which are eventually covered over by the sands of time, explainined in a passage that borrows quite literally from The Nameless City by H.P. Lovecraft.]
