[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]
|
So cold are the spaces between the stars...
|
For blackened suns are the only legacy of worlds long dead.
|
|
[ZURRA:]
|
The key word of Transcendence!
|
The key word of Transference!
|
I shall liberate the rightful owners of the Lexicon...
|
the true rulers of the cosmos!
|
X'atham-ry'aa! Tha'zai-tonn!
|
Darker than a score of hells, Wherein astral horrors dwell,
|
Macrocosmic realms aflame...
|
Prey of fiends that have no name!
|
X'atham-ry'aa! Tha'zai-tonn!
|
Darker than a score of hells...
|
Where astral horrors sublime dwell,
|
Macrocosmic realms aflame...
|
Bow to the gods that have no name!
|
|
[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]
|
So cold, at the heart of a frozen star...
|
Stay thy hand and thy tongue, slave of the Outer Darkness...
|
Surely you are not foolhardy enough to dare awaken the dire titans of Z'xulth!
|
|
[ZURRA:]
|
Hidden within the blazing core of this sun is that which I seek, old one.
|
Do not seek to thwart me,
|
lest the horrors of oblivion be a balm to your time-addled mind.
|
Behold the cosmic codex! The tome of the astral abyss!
|
|
[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]
|
Such diabolical evil...
|
sublime macrocosmic malevolence!
|
|
[ZURRA:]
|
Fear is the power... Terror is the key!
|
X'atham-ry'aa... Tha'zai-tonn!
|
I am replete with sovereign mastery!
|
The portals to the Outer Darkness yawn wide once more!
|
They-Who-Lurk-And-Breed-In-Limbo are free!
|
Kur'oc! Gul-Kor! I have won... bow, yield, kneel! Darken the sun...
|
Narra, Gorra, Kaasha! I arise... bow, yield, kneel! Parhelion dies...
|
Narra, Gorra, Kaasha! I can taste the sweet ichors of omni potency upon my lips...
|
Let it begin! X'atham-ry'aa j'aiigh! Tha'zai-tonn nax'a-gorrha!
|
|
[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]
|
So cold, the spaces between the stars...
|
|
[ZURRA:]
|
X'atham-ry'aa... Tha'zai-tonn...
|
|
[THE KEEPER OF THE NINTH SHARD:]
|
Such carnage wrought with your malevolent tongue, dark one...
|
What unfathomable horrors dwell within the lightless corners of your cursed soul?
|
Heed not the voice of the Lexicon... lest its whispers drive you mad!
