Magan Texts

Magan Text Inert:

The Incantation of the Primal Power

The Mountain of KUR, the Serpent God

The Mountain MASHU, that of Magick

The Dead KUTULU, Dead but Dreaming

TIAMAT Dead but Dreaming

ABSU, KINGU, Dead but dreaming

And shall thier generation come again?

WE ARE THE LOST ONES

From a Time beyond Time

From a Land beyond the Stars

From an Age when ANU walked the earth

In company of Bright Angels

We have survived the First War

Between the Powers of the Gods

And have seen the wrath of the Ancient Ones

Dark Angels

Vent upon the Earth

WE ARE FROM A RACE BEYOND THE WANDERERS OF NIGHT

We have survived the Age when ABSU ruled the Earth

And the Power destroyed out generations

We have survived on tops of mountains

And beneath the feet of mountains

And have spoken with the Scorpions

In allegiance and were betrayed

And TIAMAT has promised us nevermore to attack

With water and with wind

BUt the Gods are forgetful

Beaneath the Seas of NAR MATTARU

Beneath the World lays sleeping

The God of Anger, Dead but Dreaming!

THe god of Cuthalu, Dead but Dreaming!

The Lord of KUR, calm but thunderous!

The One-Eyes Sword,cold but burning!

He who awakens Him calls the ancient Vegenance of the Elder Ones

The Seven Glourious Gods

of the Seven Glourious Cities

Upon himself and upon the World

Know that our years are the years of War

And our days are measured with battles

And every hour is a Life

Lost to the Outside

Those from Without

Have builded up charnel houses

To nourish the fiends of TIAMAT

And the Blood of the weakest here

Is libation unto TIAMAT

Queen of the Ghouls

Wrecker of Pain

And to invoke her

The Red Water of Life

Need be split on a stone

The stone struck with a sword

That hath slain eleven men

Sacrifices to HUBUR

So that the Strike ringeth out

And call TIAMAT from Her Slumber

From her sleep in the Caverns

of the Earth

And none may dare entreat further

For to invoke Death is to utter

The final prayer
