Hellsgate
Julia MartinThrough the millennia, it
has known many names: Set, Surtur, Hel, Kutulu, Tiamat. The legends of
this being stretch back beyond the memory of humankind. It is the Great
Dark One. The source of misery, the bringer of despair, and the
wellspring of human suffering.
Imprisoned in ages past, it has bided its time. When
humans crawled from the evolutionary muck, it waited. As the first
civilizations arose, it waited. When humanity first reached out for the
skies, it waited. It waited for a time when it could be free to rule and
torture.
That time has come. NASA's newest Comsat is beaming a
strange and unknown signal to Mexico. The gods of the ancient Mayans are
rising anew. Strange and horrible creatures stalk the night. These
disparate threads hold the secret of the Dark One's return. The way is
open for the coming of the Great Dark One.
Hidden away in this tangled skein of threads lies the
terrible secret that can breach the walls of reality and herald the
arrival of the greatest evil ever known.
The secret of Hellsgate.
