RITE OF THE WORM

Ritual of The Body of Shadow by Magister Du'alkarnain Siyah-Chal IV

By the word of Azothoz and this rite of yatus As molten fire which burns yet does not glow And by the darkness in which I am so cloaked I stand now in this Circle of the Crooked Serpent And invoke the five rungs of Ahriman: By the magnitude of your legends of fear, Zohak, I invoke you. By burrowing below and the slithering tongue above, Azi-Dahaka, I invoke you. By the wild boar and gluttonous appetite, Ruha-Az, I invoke you. By maggots swarming upon skeletons caught in your desert gales, Taromat, I invoke you/ By crowded dead screams from each victim of every war At the behest of a single man's desire for vengeance Akoman, I invoke you.. By the marvel of blood upon the canvas of rage, Aeshma, I invoke you. By the words of the Abomination of Damascus, With the words of Azal'ucel, Crowned, My voice is clear: Spirit unto Rung, Rung unto Worm Conjoin, black djinn! Behold the burrowing blindness. Endless twisting in the absence of light Angra Mainyu of the Worm! Eternal motion, I have forged you! I am transformed.
