Arcana Antediluvia |
| Behold, my blackened, grim and gory axe, the searing glow of trenchant steel. |
| I’ll notch another widow to my haft, and wreak red vengeance 'cross the waves. |
| Tales of black-sailed argosies, bedeviled by base treachery! |
| His gaze is as fire, his words are as spear-points, his voice is as thunder, |
| his touch as the plague! |
| Storm-prow cleaving, dragon rending, nighted deeps far, far below, |
| Hail-scur scouring, sea devouring, sunken realm’s ethereal glow. |
| And one night, there came a storm, a storm with searing red winds. |
| Fire and steel rode within it, and vengeance writ in thunder and blood! |
| Down sixty fathoms, from stygian coral-clad tombs, the pitiless abyssal sea |
| disgorges its shambling mold-mottled dead, |
| Dank innards blackly acoil with nests of slithering things! |
| Ghosts aglide upon the eldritch seas, unfathomed voyage to ascendancy, |
| Traitorous blood, the surf roils red, churning crimson, thrice-cursed dead. |
| 'Tis enough that men might dream of being kings without aspiring to the power |
| of gods. |
