The fall of great Hyborea, as told by the inhabitants of a lost tenple under the mountains.
Once, Hyborea was great and mighty. We ruled many lands and many peoples. The Great Spirits protected and guided us. Then fell the Long Night. Through treachery, barbarians invaded and destroyed Great Hyborea. Upon its smoldering ruins, they fought among each other. Civilisation was diminished forever – no longer could Hyborea be the shining Light of the world. Now only darkness, confusion and uncultured barbarism reigned. Brother fought brother, men became cannibals and art and books were nothing but kindling for the fires that raged everywhere.
