[The Oracle of Logres:]

It was a time of change. The descendants of the
Atlantean mages had fallen

before the New Praesidium, and the wolves were
baying at the Empire's door.

An oppressive new faith was encroaching from the
east, and the sylvan liege

had locked tight the gates of his arboreal realm.
And so it was that towards

the end of the Age of Mystery, the last of
Albion's great Dragon Lords did

gather for what would be their final battle...

[The War-song of the Dragon Lords:]

Dragon-phalanx rend the sky, Albion our gleaming
prize,

Sentinels of land and sea, guardians of destiny.

(Prowling amongst the pecseatan; Draconis
Bipedes, swift and furious beast of battle!)

[The Dragon King's Vow:]

(Dragon-Runes etched by the firey tongues of the
IX Legio Draconis into the

primordial stone of the great Logres Drachenstahl
Cromlech):

The foes of this sceptred isle shall be driven
back into the sea!

An oath sworn in battle, a vow blessed by steel,

I swear by the dragon's blood in my veins... and
the dragon's heart that pumps

it!

[The War-song of the Dragon Lords:]

Dragonfyre in the fray, faith and steel shall win
the day,

A god to serf and king alike, the Adamantine
Hammer strikes!

(Devouring the infidel outlanders; Draconis
Nematoda, great winged worm of war!)

[The Dragon King's Vow:]

To victory eternal... this world shall be our
empire!

Dragon Imperium, throne of the Ancient Gods,
behold the axiom, Wyruld-Cyninga!

It is time! We shall rule, and upon our dominion
the sun shall never set!

[12 October: 1893]

I must commit this to the pages of my journal,
while it is still vivid in my

recollection... not that such a macabre vision
could possibly soon be

blissfully forgotten. Just before dawn, I awoke
from a fantastic and somewhat

horrifying dream in which I traversed a great
black cyclopean cityscape,

its towering stygian walls inscribed with some
form of outlandish glyphs which

seemed to writhe squamously and alter their shape
even as I gazed at them.

A sibilant whispering which seemed at once
familiar and yet intrusively alien

compelled me to walk to the edge of a
particularly sinister looking edifice

and peer out over its precipitous perimeter. When
I did so, I beheld this

world of ours, recognizing vaguely the apparent
shapes of the five continents,

yet the entire vista seemed so distant that the
whole appeared in its entirety

no larger than a sphere which I could fit snugly
into the palm of my hand.

When I turned again to behold the looming
obelisks, I found I could then

easily read the previously untranslatable ciphers
in the black stone. They

were the words of a great thaumaturgist who had
seemingly discovered a

repository of aeons-old lore detailing the
sidereal web of the cosmos, with

arcane diagrams pinpointing certain astral
portals and places of empyreal

potency, a sort of pangalactic ley-line chart, if
you will. Indeed, these

Star-Maps Of The Ancient Cosmographers seemed to
take a not insignificant toll

on the author's sanity, as evidenced by the tone
of his inscriptions, which

seem to suggest that in discovering this
Pandora's Box of dark elucidation,

his fate was to be inexorably dogged by some
nameless and implacable gloom;
