The Scroll

More than 4,000 years ago the teachings of the scroll began to both intrigue and curse those who came in contact with it. Its spell petrified a lost city's populace, cajoled a prince of Ancient Egypt to spread the cult of the dark god, Nyarlathotep, and ensured that the blood of serpent people ran through the veins of his descendants. Centuries would pass, and it would be buried at the end of a long, lost tunnel in a temple beneath the unsuspecting city of Alexandria. But in 1920, one Yussuf Al Rashid begins to dig a hiding place for his ill-gotten money, and unearths the magical scroll, setting in motion an adventure which begins with death and could finish with the end of the world.
