The Chronicle of Akakor
Great Catastrophe lies like a pall over the events of the first thirteen years in the history of my people.
According to the priests, ma ruled over the largest empire that has ever existed on earth. It was headed
by the Ugha Mongulala, who made sure the laws were obeyed. Their warriors protected the frontiers
from the raids of savage tribes. Three hundred sixty million allies owed them allegiance, but after the
first Great Catastrophe they rebelled against the rule of the Ugha Mongulala. They rejected the bequest
of the Gods and soon forgot their language and their script. They became degenerate.
Quechua, as the White Barbarians call our language, consists of simple and good words that suffice to
describe all mysteries of nature. Not even the Incas know the script of the Gods. There are 1,400
symbols, which yield different meanings according to their sequence. The most important signs are
those for life and death, depicted by bread and water. All entries in the chronicle begin and end with
these symbols. After the arrival of the German soldiers in 1942, according to the calendar of the White
Barbarians, the priests started recording the events in the script of the Allied Tribes as well. Language,
service for the commonwealth, veneration of the aged, and respect for the prince are the most important
things documented from the years before the first Great Catastrophe. They are evidence of the fact that
in the 10,000 years of its history my people had only one aim: to preserve the bequest of the Former
Masters.

Ominous Signs in the Sky

"There were strange signs in the sky. Twilight covered the face of the earth. The sun still shone, but
there were gray mists, big and powerful, that began obscuring the daylight. Strange signs stood in the
sky. The stars were like dull stones. A poisonous haze drifted over the hills. Evil-smelling fire hung in
the trees. A red sun and a black path crossed each other. Black, red, all four corners of the world were
red."

The first Great Catastrophe changed the life of my people and the face of the world. Nobody can
imagine what happened at that time, thirteen years after the departure of the Former Masters. The
catastrophe was enormous, and our chronicle reports it with terror.

"The Chosen Servants were fearful and terrified. They no longer saw the sun, the moon, or the stars.
Confusion and darkness erupted everywhere. Strange images passed above their heads. Resin dripped
from the sky, and by twilight, men were desperate for food. They killed their own brothers. They forgot
the testament of the Gods. The era of blood had started."

What happened at that time when the Gods left us? Who was responsible for the catastrophe that threw
my people back into darkness for 6,000 years? Once again our priests can interpret the devastating
events. They say that in the period before the hour zero, there also existed another nation of Gods that
was hostile to our Former Masters. According to the images in the Great Temple of the Sun in Akakor,
the strange creatures resembled men. They were very hairy and had reddish skin. Like men, they had
five fingers and five toes. But out of their shoulders grew the heads of serpents, tigers, falcons, and
other animals. Our priests say that these Gods also ruled over an enormous empire. They too possessed
knowledge which made them superior to men and equals of our Former Masters. The two races of Gods,
which are represented in the images of the Great Temple of the Sun in Akakor, began to quarrel. They
burned the world with solar heat, and each tried to wrest power from the other. A tremendous war
between planets started, which drove my people to perdition. Yet for the first time, the providence of the
Gods saved the Ugha Mongulala. Recalling the last words of our Former Masters announcing the
catastrophe, Ina commanded the withdrawal into the underground dwellings.

"The elders of the people assembled. They obeyed Ina’s command. "How can we protect ourselves? The
signs are full of menace," they said. "Let us follow the Gods’ command and move into the underground
shelter. Are our ideas not sufficient for a whole nation? Not one, not two of us should be missing." So
they spoke. So they decided. And the multitude assembled. They crossed the waters. They descended
the ravine and crossed it. They came to the end, where the four roads cross in the dwellings of the
Former Masters, protected in the interior of the mountains."
