Chapter 1: The Plot

Inside a house, two men were talking. The room was lit with candles, and one man was holding a book.

"The child will be born tonight?" one said.

"Yes," replied the other. "He is the one spoken in the prophecy. When this boy is born, we will begin the ritual. The Dark Lord Cthulhu will rise again. It has all been foretold in the Necronomicon." He held up the book.

"When will we intervene?" said the man.

The other man grinned. "Soon; very soon. This child will be important in the ritual. We will wait, and then…strike." He laughed evilly and set the book down. "All hail Cthulhu, Dark Lord of the Underworld!"
