[ Part I - Hall Of Saurian ]

Subterranean Labyrinths of Catacombs
We Crawled To Gather in this Dimly Lit
Of Colossal Proportion
Which Few See
Along Walls
Rise Tier after Tier of Painted Sacrophagi
Each in a Niche in the Stone
The Mounted Tiers Up
To Be Lost in the Above
of Carven Masks
Stare Down Us
We Who are Futile and Insignificant
By This Array 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 Black Kingdom shall nr
Tonight we shall
The of the chains which Enslave us
And the of a Dark Empire

Who am I to what powers lurk and and Dream
in murky Tombs
They hold secrets for three thousand years
But I shall Learn They shall me
See how they sleep through their
Masks
Priests Monks Acolytes Kheri Heb Khet
The Remains of the Sacrificial Whores
of The Serpent Cult s of Thirty
Centuries Black Incantation and Foul
Art
Propitiated with the Blood of the
We will waken them from their long
The Ancients Nay Commanded the
of Power
And shall teach to Me
I restore them to Life
To Labour for my own Imperial Desires
I will Waken Them Will Rouse
learn their forgotten Wisdom
The knowledge locked in those withered
By the of The Dead
We shall Enslave the
Pharaohs and Priests long
be our Warriors and Slaves
Who Dare to Oppose Us
Out of the Dust shall Rise

Foul of Ra who have Rebelled
Fiends
Spawn of Inertness Impotent
Nameless
For whom Blazing Pits of have been prepared
By the of Ra
Upon your Faces
You are
Skulls are Crushed in
You are Annihilated
Gashed Flints Your Windpipes Cut
The of your Backs are Rent Apart

The of the Eye of Horus is Upon You
Searching You You
Setting you on Burning you To Ashes

Unemi The Devouring Consumes You
Sekhmet The Immolation of the Desert

Xul ur
Adjugeth you to
Flame Fire Pulverize You

Your Souls Shades and Lives
Shall Never Up Again
Your Heads Shall Never your Bodies
Even The Words of
Of The God
The of Spells
Shall Never Enable you to Again

[ Part IV - ]

I knew they were
so were these nameless desert ruins
Crumbling and inarticulate the of
its collapsed was
Nearly hidden by the sands of the uncounted
It must been thus before the first stones of
were laid
And the of Babylon unbaked
Fear spoke from the age stones
This desolate survivor of the
This crumbling ancestor
Of the Eldest

Only the grim desert Gods
Knew what took place here
indescribable struggles and bloodshed
Awoke some distant throng of condemned
And broke the tomblike of these crumbled
Time ravaged remains night black ruins
Of some vanguished and buried Temple of

But as the Night wind away
the desert rim rose the
Blazing of the morning sun
Which in my fevered
I swore from some remote depth there came a
Great crash of
Like a great gate
Clanging shut reverberations swelled out
To hail the rising Sun as hails in
From the 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, 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 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.]
