He has hidden in the howling void.
He has hidden within the tempest.
He has braved the storm and darkness and the pain.
And he whispered to the vessel.
All this time, he whispered and delighted and seduced, and the vessel did obey, for none shall be more mighty and none shall be more wise than the king himself.
And the Lord of Time was blind and vain and knew nothing.

There is the Toymaker, the god of games.
There is Trickster, the god of traps.
There is Maestro, the god of music
There is Reprobate, the god of spite.
There is the Mara, the god of beasts.
And the threefold deity of malice and mischief and misery.
There are gods of skin and shame and secrets.
There is Incensor, the god of disaster, and her children called Doubt and Dread.
And standing on high is the mother and father and other of them all.

For the god of all gods has returned.
