The Chronicle of Akakor
Serpent Eaters accompanied my people into the underground dwellings. They were welcomed with all
honors and their chieftain was given a seat in the high council in gratitude for his loyalty to the Ugha
Mongulala and the bequest of the Gods.
The withdrawal is completed. The Chosen Servants went to the underground dwellings to await
the return of the Gods. Then their hearts rested. And they told their sons of the past days and
the glory of the Gods, of the mighty magicians who created mountains and valleys, the waters,
and the land. They spoke of the lords of heaven who are of the same blood and have the same
father.
Since the Chosen Servants retreated to the underground dwellings in the year 12,452 (1971), only 5,000
warriors remain aboveground. They cultivate the fields, bring in the harvest, and report to the high council
about the advance of the White Barbarians. But they have been forbidden to fight. When enemies appear,
they must retreat to preserve the secret of the underground dwellings.
Thirty thousand people are still living in lower Akakor, Bodo, and Kish. The other cities are deserted or,
like Mu, are filled with stores and war equipment. Even today, artificial light illumines the thirteen cities of
the Gods. Air for breathing comes through the walls. The large stone gates can still be moved as smoothly
as they were 10,000 years ago. After the retreat, the German soldiers tried to solve the mystery of lower
Akakor. They measured the tunnel and made exact charts. At the request of their leaders, I even opened the
secret complex underneath the Great Temple of the Sun to them. Here the German soldiers discovered
strange instruments and tools of the Gods which resembled their own equipment. They had the impression
that the Ancient Fathers had left the underground dwellings in sudden flight. But our allies could not
explain the secret of lower Akakor either. For the Gods built the cities according to their own plans, which
are unknown to us. Only when they return will men understand their works and actions.
Now the German soldiers are resigned to being with us. They have grown old or have died. Their children
think and feel like the Ugha Mongulala and live according to the bequest of the Gods. The priests hold
consecration services in the Great Temple of the Sun. The ordinary people manufacture objects for daily
use. The officials of the prince maintain communications to Bodo and Kish. This is a period of learning and
contemplation. All the people live in their memories, and their hearts are heavy when they think of Lhasa’s
glorious days. Now they have nothing but hope to protect them from the assault of the White Barbarians on
the underground dwellings. And they have the certainty that the Gods will soon return, as they promised on
their departure.
The Return of the Gods
If the Ugha Mongulala were a people like any other, their fate would have been fulfilled long ago. But they
are the Chosen Servants of the Gods; they trust in their ancient bequest. Even at times of direst need they
live according to the laws of the Ancient Fathers. This entitles them to judge the White Barbarians and to
warn mankind, as it is written in the Chronicle of Akakor:
People of the forest, the plains, and the mountains, be warned: The White Barbarians are raving
mad. They kill one another. Everything is blood, terror, and perdition. The light of the earth is
close to extinction. Darkness covers the road. The only sounds heard are the wings of the owls
and the cries of the Great Forest Bird. We must remain strong against them. When one of them
comes close, stretch out your hands. Reject him and cry: "Be silent, you of the loud voice.
Your words are only like the grumbling of thunder, nothing more. Stay away from us with your
joys and lusts, your wild grasping for riches, your greed to be more than the next man, all your
senseless actions, the fumbling of your hands, your curiosity in thinking, and knowledge that
knows nothing after all. We do not need any of that. We are content with the bequest of the
Gods, whose light does not dazzle us and does not lead us into confusion but instead brightens
