  • [The Imperator of the Night (Hearken to the Attestation of the Sinistrous):]
  • For it is the iniquity of man which compels him to these tenebrous gates,
  • seeking opiate dreams and the alluring embrace of oblivion...
  • Know that I have cavorted beneath the horned moon with repellent fiends, and
