Before manner was, ye Elder ones were, and even yet their lord dwelleth amonge ye shadows to which if a manne sette his foote he maye not turn upon his track. And ye mortal which gaineth to ye black citadels of Koth and speaks with ye Darke Lord whose face is hidden, for a price may he gain hys heartes desire, ryches and knowledge beyond countinge and lyffe beyond mortal span even two hundred and fiftie yeares.
Let not ye mortals flynche as ye tyme draweth nigh for payment and ye fires of Hel laye hold upon ye vytals as the sign of reckoninge. For ye Prince of Darkness taketh hys due in ye endde and he is not to bee cozened. What ye have promised, that shall ye deliver. Amonge ye sonnes of men glide strange shadows for ever. Men see ye tracks of ye talones but not ye feete that make them. Over ye souls of men spread great black wingges. There is but one Black Master though men called hym Sathanas and Beelzebub and Apolleon and Ahriman and Malik Tous.
Approacheth now ye moment of payment. Ye ravens are flying. Ye bats winge against ye skye. There are skulls in ye starres. Ye soul and ye bodie are promised and shall bee delivered uppe. Not to ye dust agayne nor ye elements from which springe lyfe. Ye abyss yawns and ye debt is to paye. Ye light fayles, ye shadows gather. There is no god but evil; no lite but darkness; no hope but doom. Oh winges in ye black darke! Oh redde eyes in ye shadows! What is promised, what is writ in bloode is fulfilled! Ye lite is gulfed in blackness!

Ya.......Koth!

Drowsy and dull with age the houses blink
On aimless streets the rat-gnawed years forget
But what inhuman figures leer and slink
Down the old alleys when the moon has set?

During the last years of the reign of Pharaoh Zoser, a man known as Nephren-Ka came to Khemet. Nephren-Ka was a powerful sorceror; he brought madness

and death to his enemies with a word or a glance. The stories say that he came from an ancient city in the deserts of Arabia,

whose name was Irem, the City of Pillars. All who know of this place hold it in dread.

Nephren-Ka impressed Pharaoh with his power and knowledge of things hidden, and Pharaoh made him Vizier, second only to Pharaoh throughout the land.

Nephren-Ka revived the worship of an old, foul god – the Black Pharaoh. Soon Nephren-Ka and the Black Pharaoh were interchangeable

in the minds of the people. Now no one can distinguish their deeds.

Pharaoh Zoser died of a wasting disease, and the sorceror proclaimed himself Pharaoh. For many years the Black Pharaoh fought with Zoser’s sons

for control of the land. So great was the power of the Black Pharaoh that no record of Zoser’s sons now remains.

For a time, Nephren-Ka ruled the land and its peoples.

It was said that Nephren-Ka was served by a huge beast, of which the Sphinx is but a small, inaccurate representation.

The voice of Nephren-Ka was said to have been carried throughout the land within a black wind, a wind which destroyed at his whim.

Nephren-Ka built the Labyrinth of Kish, a place of darkness and despair. Here he practiced many foul sorceries.

At last a hero named Sneferu arose, and with the aid of Isis and Bast thwarted the evil magic and slew Nephren-Ka. Sneferu then ruled as Pharaoh and

brought the favor of the gods back to the land.

A pyramid was built to contain the soul of Nephren-Ka and to protect the land from his evil magic. The first pyramid was not strong enough

to hold the spirit of the Black Pharaoh and it collapsed. A second pyramid was built, with strange geometries calculated by the priests to

withstand the power of the Black Pharaoh. This pyramid stood, and the body of Nephren-Ka was entombed, accompanied by the curses of the priests.

Yet a third pyramid was built to guard the site, lest Nephren-Ka return from death and plague the land.

Pharaoh Sneferu ordered all traces of the Black Pharaoh stricken from the land. Nevertheless, worshippers of the Black Pharaoh remained

and schemed for the Black Pharaoh’s return. In time, Pharaoh Khafre, son of Khufu, son of Sneferu, drove these evil ones out of the land

and into the hideous swamps beyond the cataracts.

The worship of the Black Pharaoh was revived during the reign of Queen Nitocris, after the death of her husband Pharaoh Merenre.

It was said that she invited the priests and generals who had conspired to slay her brother to a banquet in a subterranean chamber,

then opened a secret door and flooded the chamber with the waters of the Nile.

Queen Nitocris unsealed the entrance to the Labyrinth of Kish and learned much from the Black Pharaoh. The land again became a place of darkness and dread. Those who worshipped the true gods were persecuted and lived in fear.

When Queen Nitocris gave birth to a son, whom she named Nephren-Ka, the people rose up and slew her. Her body was buried in a secret place,

lest any evil ones attempt to recall her soul.

Tis now the very witching time of night,
When churchyards yawn and hell itself breathes out
Contagion to this world: now could I drink hot blood,
And do such bitter business, as the day
Would quake to look on.

Hamlet, Act III, scene ii

[dggilluminatus]

That night the Baron dreamt of many a wo;
And all his warrior-guests, with shade and form
Of witch and demon, and large coffin-worm,
Were long be-nightmared.
