[ Part I - Hall Of Saurian ]

Through Subterranean of Catacombs
We Hath Crawled To in this Dimly Lit
Hall Of Colossal
Few Ever See
Along Black
Tier after Tier of Carven Painted Sacrophagi
Each in a Niche in the Stone
The Tiers Rising Up
To Be Lost in the Above
Thousands of Masks
Down Upon Us
We Who are Rendered Futile and
By This Vast of the Dead

[ Part II - Invocation To Seditious ]

And Here I
I who would be of the Black Earth
Have summoned you secretly
You who are to me
To share in the Black Kingdom shall nr
Tonight we witness
The breaking of the chains Enslave us
And the of a Dark Empire

Who am I to know powers lurk and and Dream
in these murky
They hold secrets forgotten for three thousand
But I shall Learn shall teach me
See how they sleep through their
Carven

By the Lore of The

Shall be our Warriors and
Who will Dare to Us
Out of the shall Avaris Rise

[ Part IV - ]

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

Only the grim brooding Gods
Knew what really took place
What struggles and bloodshed
Awoke some throng of condemned spirits
And broke the silence of these crumbled
ravaged remains these night black ruins
Of vanguished and buried Temple of Belial

But as the Night diad away
Above the rim rose the
Blazing edge of the sun
Which in my fevered
I swore that from some remote depth came a
Great crash of
Like a great gate
shut whose reverberations swelled out
To hail the rising Sun as Memnon in
the banks of the Nile

[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 thei 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, 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.]
