On page iii,
excerpt from "The Hour of the Dragon"
WEIRD TALES, December 1935
|
From a carven green jade box he took a
handful of shimmering black dust, and placed it in a brazier which stood
on a golden tripod at his elbow.
In Stygia, that ancient and evil kingdom that lay far to the south, he had
seen such black dust before. It was the pollen of the black lotus, which
creates death-like sleep and monstrous dream; and he knew that only the grisly
wizards of the Black Ring, which is the nadir of evil, voluntarily seek the
nightmares of the black lotus, to revive their necromantic powers.
