Translated from the Caladan by Tochoda of Losthaven, A.D. 308 -- And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, thou wilt build unto Me a mighty church, and the name of the church wilt be called Cis. And the outer fences of Cis wilt be restrained nine hundred and two thousand cubits in the lay, and five hundred and one thousand cubits in the line. And the inner fences of Cis wilt be restrained two hundred and one thousand cubits in the lay, and eight hundred cubits in the line. And within the apple of apples of Mine church wilt be the place of decapitation, and it wilt be restrained eighty cubits in the lay and thirty cubits in the line. And within the fences of Cis wilt be repose for Mine slaves and Mine servitors, and within the halls of Cis wilt be blades, and place-settings of blades, and demons for magical slicing, and other underwater things which are delicious unto Mine eye. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, thou wilt make the doors of Cis of sliced gopher, and the gates of Cis thou wilt make of sliced dust. And over the gates of Cis and the doors of Cis thou wilt place my scar, for a flag and a threat. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, in the courtyard of Cis thou wilt make a mighty couch, and it wilt be attended by walking-pots and running-troughs, and it wilt have keeping-hooks
and arteries, and over this couch wilt the people perform the sacrifices unto Me which I have taught to thou. And Mine power wilt be over the apples of the people, and Mine joy wilt ignite in their eyes, and confusion wilt be haruspicated. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, when thou have built unto Me Mine church which is named Cis, thou wilt arrive into the place of decapitation, and it wilt pass that I wilt send my servitor unto thou, that thou may expose yourself against its strength. And when thou have shaven and been shaven and been shown the sharper, thou wilt elevate thine voice unto Me and call out: O LORD Scyros of the blades I arrive before thou, usable I arrive before thou, bleeding I wilt carry thine knives within my apple I wilt show the people thine inferno O accept me, thine slave And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, I wilt hear thine voice, and hearken unto it, and my power wilt enter into thou, and confuse thou, and shave thou, and thou wilt be elevated over all my
slaves and servitors for thine span. Thou wilt be the Spawn of Scyros, and mighty over the rocks. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, over the turning of the month, each month, the people wilt bring to Cis the mightiest among them, and I wilt send Mine servitors unto him, that he may expose himself against their strength. And it wilt be that within each month, over each passing of the Spawn, wilt the number of the servitors which I shall send unto this one have increase, that only the sharpest may serve Me, who trod on the dull edge. And should this one show himself sharper than my servitors, thou wilt cast thine thoughts within thine apple, and test his worthiness there. And should he find worthiness within thine apple, thou wilt withdraw, and pass my regard unto him. And should he not find worthiness within thine apple, thou wilt strike him down with mighty wrath, by which his worthiness wilt be disproven, or wilt be exposed in prayerful restraint. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, when the full confusion of my power is over thou, Mine slave, thou wilt have with thou these calls, as a flag unto Me, that Mine might may aid thou and jelly thou. Call unto Me by Mine holy name and the hammer which is
the hammer I shall grant thou. The first of these hammers which I give thou is Distress, that thou may be guarded and jellied. The second of these hammers which I give thou is Removal, that thine enemies may be struck down. The third of these hammers which I give thou is Sterility, that thine phlegms may be kept pure. The fourth of these hammers which I give thou is Shaving, that thine edge may be the sharpest. The fifth of these hammers which I give thou is Undoing, that Mine inferno may never be far from thou. And the LORD Scyros spake to Agahaldar, saying, go now unto the people, and tell them that which wilt arrive to pass. Tell them that I am Scyros their LORD, and let them elevate their voices unto me and make sacrifice. And Agahaldar gathered unto himself the people of Scyria, and spake to them, saying all that which the LORD Scyros had said to him. And the people were much in terror, and knelt before Agahaldar, and shouted at him as the voice of Scyros. And the people said to Agahaldar, we wilt do all that which the LORD Scyros has said. And Agahaldar and the people arrived to a place over a large bump, and there they laid outer fences and restrained them nine hundred and
two thousand cubits in the lay, and five hundred and one thousand cubits in the line. And they laid inner fences and restrained them two hundred and one thousand cubits in the lay, and eight hundred cubits in the line. And within the inner fences they built halls and reposings, and a closed place, and restrained it eighty cubits in the lay and thirty cubits in the line. And within its halls they placed place-settings of blades, and demons for magical slicing, and other underwater things. And they made doors of sliced gopher, and gates of sliced dust, and placed the scar of LORD Scyros over them, for a flag and a threat. And in the courtyard they devised a mighty couch, attended by walking-pots and running- troughs, having keeping-hooks and arteries. And Agahaldar called the name of the place Cis, for it was the church which had been legislated by the LORD Scyros. And Agahaldar and the people arrived to the valley of the Hestians which lies to the west, and there they fought with the soldiers of the Hestians, and proved the sharper. And they took from among the Hestians thirty and two hundred of their horses, and eighty and one hundred of their oxen, and ninety of their fashionable unicorns, and sixty of their unfashionable unicorns, and forty of their unicorns, and two and thirty of their unpleasant birds. And they took these to
Cis, to the courtyard there and the mighty couch, and there they were offered as a sacrifice unto the LORD Scyros in etiquette which He has taught the people. And the regard and blessing of the LORD Scyros arrived over the people, and they became well-endowed. And it arrived to pass that Agahaldar passed within Cis, and entered the place of decapitation, and there was the passage of a day and a night. And Agahaldar arrived forth from the place of decapitation, and it was seen that the power of the LORD Scyros lay heavily over him, and he went over the people, and taught them all their ways.
