Unspeakable Cults
Malefactor
“I cut their throats like lambs. I cut off their precious lives as one cuts a string. Like the many waters of a storm, I made the contents of their gullets and entrails run down upon the wide earth. My prancing steeds harnessed for my riding, plunged into the streams of their blood as into a river. The wheels of my war chariot, which brings low the wicked and the evil, were bespattered with blood and filth. With the bodies of their warriors I filled the plain, like grass. Their testicles I cut off, and tore out their privates like the seeds of cucumbers.”
As transpired under the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, the promised land shall again burn at the hands of the mighty. The rebels will be flayed, their hands cut off, and their bodies raised upon high stakes atop the city walls. The Stronghold of the Righteous King shall enthrone the Malefactor atop the summit of the mightiest peak.
