Once long ago, our forbears lived. far'to the east on the shores of the Eastern Ocean, a people ancient and wise even then in the youth of this age. These, our fathers, ruled an empire beyond measure, taking as their servants uncounted numbers of Lemurians. The Lemuriané were a homeless race, smashed by the Great Cataclysm which had brought iow many of the mighty in their era, and seemed well suited to their servitude Lo, on one bitter day these Lemurians turned mad and began slaying their masters across the length and breadth of the land. One legion alone of our elders’ brightly Shining armies survived the onslaught, and with these brave warriors our direct forefathers traveled the entire length on the continent until at last they came to the eat river Styx. Here they found the land to be good, and our people began to claim it for their own. some of our kin migrated farther north, to found the empire of Acheron, whose evil power was to gominate the northwestern world for thousands of years.” Thy Stygian people BfSssed the river Styx and began to contest for the land which’ we now call howe with @ previuman race <= a face of man and snake. These snake men were great warriors and held Ruch ancient knowledge, The battle for the land was long and hard until we finally Drevatied. “in the aftermath of war, our fathers Degan te rebuild the cities. they had Poeu down and to delve deeply into the black secrets which the ancient race had teft behinds""when a¢, Sat, our people besan, Po yorehip the very god upon whom our jenakelike foes had Called in vain, the deeper mysteries of the Black Sing were revealed and great power became ours, Praise be to Set! During all this time our kindred, Acheron, had grown strong in the north and then their power waned as wild Hyborian tribes crashed upon her northern borders. For a thousand years Acheron’s power slowly weakened under the hammer blows of the Hyborian hordes. As Acheron weakened, Stygia expanded, taking up the void of lands vacated by Acheron's armies as they were called up to fight in the north. Thus we came to rule an empire which encompassed all of Shem, eastern Koth, Zamboula, and much of the eastern desert Sister Acheron was broken at last. The Hyborian tribes utterly consumed her in fire and sword. In time our fathers were forced to retreat back behind the brooding Styx Fiver that today forms our northern border. In the thousands of years in which we have dwelt in this land we have adventured mich and taken many slaves in raids upon the black kingdoms. Never have our people been plentiful and always has our land been parched. Our strength lies in Set, with whose power we are invincible Lo, we have gathered our strength through the generations, holding our silent counsel’ even when the upstart Turanians separated Zamboula from our power. The time of empire is nearly upon us (once more) as indeed the entire world is torn by war and Visions of imperial ambition, May Set grant that we are equal to the tasks ahead!
