Sulphur Aeon The Scythe Of Cosmic Chaos 1. Cult of Starry Wisdom I fix upon a whispering light... A shimmering stone, A gate of night. With mesmerized eyes I await his call, Messenger of Father Azathoth Pale faces align In hypnotic trance. Malevolent hands Are being raised! Voices soar through the eldritch halls Of the cadaverous church. Shine, Trapezohedron! Embrace me in thine glowing trance! Bless me with thine arcana! A crystalline gate to the stars... Far from the Moon And from Mars. Ancient soil—deserts of Yuggoth Herein reigns the race of the Mi-Go. Shine, Trapezohedron! Embrace me in thine glowing trance! Bless me with thine arcana! Iä, Iä, Nyarlathotep! I yearn to be thine servant— Speak through me! Iä, Iä, Nyarlathotep! I call forth ye, Oh thousand-faced god. 2. Yuggothian Spell Windows closed, The doors are sealed. Scent of alcohol... and Candles have been lit. Midnight intoxication... Writhing in terror, Hallucinating... In suicidal moan. The words I spoke, The verses I've read, I reckon I invoked This impending dread! Haunting jewel— Gleaming curse! Primeval worship— Yuggothian spell Devouring fear Numbs mind and soul. Windows locked and nailed And chimneys sealed. Caught within the terrifying grip of night... Left without protecting bulbs of light. Numbed by thunder, lightning strikes. It seizes hold of my weak human mind. Haunting jewel— Gleaming curse! Primeval worship— Yuggothian spell Blurred visions of Unimaginable sights. Existences and worlds Left untold! Light is dark and Darkness is light! I remember Yuggoth I remember the ultimate void Azathoth, Have mercy! Yog-Sothoth, Save me! I see their priests and candlelit altars Preying on my humble human soul... Iä... ngai... ygg! I can see it... Winds of hell, Titanium cloud Black wings, The three-lobed eye. Nyarlathotep... 3. The Summoning of Nyarlathotep Eater of souls, devourer of sanity I'm calling thee! Crawling chaos, Thy name shall be revealed Faceless father, ultimate void, I am calling thee! Delightfully wicked aristocrat From the stars Nyarlathotep! Thrice invoked. Nyarlathotep! Circle closed. Nyarlathotep! Rise in our seal. Ai! Evil be performed in thy name. Stalker of the stars, Bringer of death to all! Tear down This feeble universe! Black pharaoh Reveal to us thy dreaded mysteries! Nyarlathotep! Sweet poison divine. Nyarlathotep! Evil incarnate. Madness lurks Behind thine faceless void. Eldritch whistling from the cosmic gates... Trickster, messenger, Necromancer Thee who walketh among mortal men, Revered by those who know thine path. Thee who walketh among the gods, Feared by those who know thine intent. Madness, corruption—rise Chaos that creeps—divine Liar—keeper of mysteries. 4. Veneration of the Lunar Orb A world in cosmic solitude, Farthest from what is called sun. Beyond astrology and myth! From star-crusted black voids, Devouring throat of chaos. Within constellations Yet unknown, Beyond the starlit Rings of Saturnus! Veneration of the lunar orb Perpetual cycles of Adoration Veneration of the lunar orb An ancient law not to perturb. Across Cyclopean bridges... Mesmerizing rivers of pitch. Through endless caverns Seamed with glowing lichen. Veneration of the lunar orb Perpetual cycles of Adoration Veneration of the lunar orb An ancient law not to perturb. Armed remnants Of battles passed, In thrall of a pale red moon That orbits this Gloomy world... Solely lit by its eerie glow. Swift slayers dwell in Yuggothian caves... In sacrificial awe to their moon. Total subjugation Of the soul and the flesh Draw the blade— Kill for the Moon 5.

Thou Shalt Not Speak His Name Chaos, entropy Enlighting visions from the stars. Doom, corruption Trauma of this feeble globe. Shifting parallel dimensions, Minds drift afar... Sinister whispers Breath from beyond. Called throughout worlds By wisdom so old Entangled in fear Of what lurks Behind the veils. Chaos, entropy Enlighting visions from the stars. Doom, corruption Trauma of this feeble globe. Boundless force on black cosmic throne Blind, bereft of mind. Blasphemy abominate! Idiot divinity, Death and creation incarnate! Monotonous whining Of accursed flutes... Thou shalt not speak his name, Daemon sultan! He, who gnaws hungrily In lightless chambers... Seething palace Beyond time and space. Thou shalt not speak his name, Daemon sultan! Calculating the structures Of space and time. What rises into being Shell be unmade. Spheres shatter... Myriads of worlds undone... As his flute falls To silence eternally... It is he, who holdeth the Sceptre of Obliteration. It is he, who wieldeth the Scythe of Cosmic Chaos!
