ALONG WITH IRKALLA, NERGAL IS EXILED TO
HIS PALACE IN THE NECROPOLIS, A CITY O
F THE DEAD HIDDEN ON ONE OF DILMUN'S MAN
Y ISLES..NERGAL IS A BLOATED AND RIDICUL
OUS CREATURE, BUT FROM THE LOOK IN HIS E
YE YOU SURMISE HE MIGHT HAVE A SENSE OF
HUMOR...124) THIS STATUE HONORS THE UNIV
ERSAL GOD, THE MOST POPULAR DEITY OF THE
SURFACE REALM OF OCEANA. .THE UNIVERSA
L GOD IS A FACELESS DEITY WITH MULTIPLE
ARMS AND HANDS. EACH HAND IS POSED IN A
DIFFERENT SIGNAL, SENDING MESSAGES OF
OF HOPE AND FEAR TO THE FAITHFUL.

THE DRAGON IS NOT NEARLY SO IMPRESSIVE.
IT IS AN OLD DRAGON-IT'S FIRE HAS GONE
OUT, AND ITS TEETH HAVE BEEN PULLED. .
IT IS STILL A POWERFUL BEAST, BUT AGE O
R DRUGS SEEM TO HAVE ROBBED THE BEAST OF
ITS FIGHTING SPIRIT. THE ANIMAL LOOK
S AT YOU WITH SOMETHING CLOSE TO SADNESS
IN ITS EYES...127) THE CAVE IS MUCH LA
RGER ON THE INSIDE THAN WIDTH. THE INTE
RIOR OF THE CAVE IS LINED WITH THOUSAN
DS OF NATURAL CRYSTALS THAT CRAZILY REFL
ECT THE LIGHT. .AFTER YOUR LONG DARK JO
URNEY THROUGH THE UNDERWORLD, YOU ARE .D
AZZLED BY THE SUDDEN LIGHT, AND BECOME D
ISORIENTED..A VOICE RINGS IN YOUR EARS.
YOU ARE THE HEROES OF OCEANA, AND TO YOU
HAS FALLEN THE BURDEN OF THIS ADVENTUR
E. LISTEN CLOSELY, FOR THIS IS WHAT YOU
MUST DO....THE FAIR WORLD OF OCEANA IS
SINKING AS THE SEAS SWELL EVER LARGER-TH
ERE IS LITTLE TO BE DONE FOR THIS. THE
WORLD HAS ITS SPAN OF LIFE ANY MAN OR BE
AST. .THE PILGRIM ISLE OF DILMUN HAVE B
EEN USURPED BY NAMTAR, A RENEGADE DEMON
FROM THE REALM OF THIS UNDERWORLD. HE H
AS DISPOSED OF KING DRAKE OF KINGSHOME A
ND RULES IN THE LATE KING'S NAME, USING
THE KING'S LEGIONS TO PURSUE HIS PATH OF
CONQUEST..NAMTAR MUST BE DESTROYED.
.HE HAS ISOLATED HIS ENEMIES, DISPERSED
THE .MAGICAL BROTHERHOOD OF THE WORLDAND
TAKEN CONTROL OF THE DRAGONS..THE SWORD
OF FREEDOM MUST BE FOUND AND REBORN IN
ITS FORGE. .A RECONCILIATION OF SORTS
MUST BE SET BETWEEN IRKALLA AND NERGAL,
FOR WITHOUT ACCORD IN THE UNDERWORLD,
THERE CAN BE NO PEACE ON THE SURFACE.
WHEN ALL IS READY, SEEK THE MOUNTAIN OF
SALVATION-NAMTAR MUST BE RETURNED TO TH
E PIT OF HELL FROM .WHICH HE CAME..A VOI
CE FADES.....128) YOU SPRINKLE THE ASHES
ON THE DARK WATERS OF THE WELL, WHICH A
BRUPTLY BEGIN TO SWIRL. ALTHOUGH THE NI
GHT OF THE UNDERWORLD IS ABSOLUTE. .YOU
THINK YOU SEE A REFLECTION OF STARS IN
THE SWIRLING BLACK WATERS. THE MOTION O
F THE WATER INTENSIFIES AND THE ASHES AR
E SUCKED INTO THE DEPTHS..YOU STAND BACK
AS A GHOSTLY RISES FROM THE WELL. AT F
IRST THE FORM IS A SHADE, THEN A GHOST,
THEN A SPECTRE, THEN A LIVING CORPSE. G
RADUALLY THE SHAPE TAKES CORPOREAL FROM
...BLOOD, BONE, MUSCLE, TEETH, HAIR IS R
ESTORED..THE ASHES ARE RESTORED TO LIFE!
..129) THE MEETING OF THE DILMUN UNDERGR
OUND IS CALLED TO ORDER. ALL THOSE IN
ATTENDANCE AT THE MEETING ARE CLOAKED IN
DARK ROBES, AND ALTHOUGH YOU RECOGNIZE
A FEW VOICES, NO FACES ARE VISIBLE...130
) FORMERLY THE IMPERIAL COURT OF KING DR
AKE, THIS HALL RETAINS NONE OF THE SPLE
NDOR OF AGES PAST. .WHERE ONCE HUNG BRI
LLIANT TAPESTRIES, THE WALLSARE NOW BARE
. .EMPTY PEDESTALS MARK WHERE RENOWNED S
CULPTURES FROMERLY STOOD...BLOCKS OF MA
RBLE ARE MISSING IN SEVERAL PLACES WHERE
MATERIALS HAVE BEEN REMOVED TO CONSTRUC
T FORTRESSES FOR KINGSHOME'S CAMPAIGN AR
MY. THIS IS NOT THE COURT OF THE KING
IN RESIDENCE...131) THIS IS A PRIVATE BE
DCHAMBER. A MAN WEARING A SIMPLE ROBE L
AYS ON A DIVAN . .HE SEEMS NEITHER OLD
NOR YOUNG. .HE HAS NO DISTINGUISHING MA
RKS OR CHARACTERISTICS...THERE IS NO EV
IL AIR TO HIM, HIS EYES DO NOT PIECE TO
YOUR SOUL, HIS BROW HAS NO SPARK OF MAD
GENIUS. .HE SITS UP LAZILY AS YOU ENTE
R, SWINGS HIS FEET TO THE FLOOR, WALKS A
CROSS THE ROOM, AND SHAKES YOUR HAND..I
'M NAMTAR, HE SAYS.I SUPPOSE YOU GUESSED
THAT. YOU'VE GIVEN ME QUITE.A LOT OF T
ROUBLE. .NAMTAR OFFERS YOU A CHAIR..NAM
TAR LOOKS SLEEPY. .HE KEEPS RUBBING HIS
EYES. ADMINISTERING THE .CONQUEST OF TH
E WORLD IS A BITCH, HE SAYS. IF I'D KNOW
HOW MUCH WORK .THIS WAS GOING TO TAKE,
I DOUBT I EVER WOULD HAVE STARTED. .OR
MAYBE I NEVER HAD A CHOICE. NO MATTER.
WE NEED TO TALK..I AM THE SON OF GODS.
.IT IS MY DESTINY TO RULE MEN SUCH AS Y
OURSLEVES..YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIKE IT-I S
ENSE YOU DO NOT-BUT THAT IS THE WAY OF T
HINGS..I HAVE SOME GRAND PLANS, BUT I CA
N'T BEGIN UNTIL THIS FUTILE RESISTANCE I
S QUELLED. .IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME.
.YOU KNOW THAT AS WELL AS I.WHY DON'T
YOU PACK IT OFF TO THE ISLE OF THE DAMNE
D-IT WORKED FOR OLD DRAKE. .YOU'RE NOT
EVEN NATIVE TO DILMUN...THERE'S LITTLE R
EASON FOR YOU TO OPPOSE ME. .GRANTED, T
HAT EPISODE IN PURGATORY WAS NASTY, BUT
INOT EVERYONE'S LIFE A LITTLE REIGN MUST
FALL. HA HA. .THAT WAS A PUN..NO ONE
LAUGHS. NAMTAR SIGHS. .AH WELL, I SUPPO
SE WE'LL HAVE TO DO THIS .THE HARD WAY.
.I'LL BE LEAVING NOW. .IF YOU'RE VERY
DEDICTED AND VERY LUCKY, WE MAY MEET AG
AIN WITHIN THE MOUNTAIN OF SALVATION. .
I WILL KILL YOU THEN. .IN THE MEANTIME
, CONSIDER YOURSELVES TO BE LIVING ON BO
RROWED .TIME. .IT'S THE LEAST I CAN GIV
E YOU IN GRATITUDE FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT
.YOU'VE PROVIDED THUS FAR..OW...BY THE
WAY. .YOU CAN MOVE AGAIN. .NAMTAR'S SO
RCERY WAS SO COMPLETE, YOU DID NOT NOTIC
E YOU WERE UNDER HIS COMPULSION UNTIL HE
BROUGHT IT UP. .I WISH YOU THE WORST OF
LUCK, MY FRIENDS. SUDDENLY NAMTAR IS G
ONE-NO .FLASH OF LIGHT, NO PEAL OF THUND
ER-JUST GONE...132) ARADRAX SCREAMS AS T
HE FIRST PINT OF BLOOD IS PUMPED FROM HI
S BODY. .THIS IS GOING TO BE A LONG NI
GHT-A SINGLE PINT WILL NEVER SATISFY THE
VAMPIRE LORD, BUT IT SEEMS NONE OF THE
BLOOD IS GOING TO COME EASY. YOU CHECK
THE MACHINES AND SEE THEY FUNCTION AS AD
VERTISED, BUT IT STILL SEEMS YOUR VOLUN
TEER IS EXPERIENCED NEEDLESS PAIN....133
