After countless months of translating the text of the crumbling
relic, a dark and sinister truth began to reveal itself. The
book held a revelation of ancient horrors and incantations with
which to summon them forth. I soon realized that what we had
unearthed from that lost, nameless city was the mythical Kitab
al Azif, the "Book of Dead Names," otherwise known
as the Necronomicon.
This was no mere copy of the book, this was the original version
of the dreaded tome, penned by the hand of the mystic Abdul Alhazred,
written in what I can only assume is his own blood.
The horrific contents of the book seem too astounding to perceive
as fact and too grotesquely immense for the human mind to fathom,
but as incredible as these tales may seem, the existence of the
fabled Necronomicon can no longer be questioned, and there can
no longer be any denying that the dark legends of the Elder races
of our world are true.
Over the centuries, certain facts became clouded and were lost
through the numerous translations, but this original copy of
the Necronomicon sheds light upon that which was previously unknown.
Man is neither the oldest nor the last of Earth's masters. There
is a darkness that dwells beyond the scope of our meager comprehension
of life, death, time and space. It lies dormant within the deepest
shadows of our world and lurks at the threshold of dimensions
beyond, awaiting the time to rise again and lay claim to the
Earth.
I curse the day that we discovered this book and have thought
of destroying the diabolical tome on several occasions, however,
some unknown force keeps me from doing so. But the incantations
within this book must never be spoken, and the Dark Gods must
never be awakened and released. I beseech you to destroy this
book or guard it with your life. I pray that you will fulfill
this dire task, for in the wrong hands, the rituals within could
unleash nightmares beyond all imagining and bring about the downfall
and annihilation of all mankind.
