   Rite of Barbaric Return
   An Invokation and eating of the Death Current

      'Oh  Black  Earth  you  vomit forth Blood you construct the conscious
   existence  of  humans  to  strike  them down again unto the belly of the
   earth  as their body dies and turns to rot. Tiamat - Come Forth from the
   Abyss!  Oh Death which humans fear, show yourself in your form as Azrael
   the  Angel  of  Death. Come unto me and show yourself in your most harsh
   and  hideous  aspect.  So  that  I  may eat of the filth and consume the
   powers  of  death  that  I may slay with my wings as the Vampires of the
   Ancient Days.

      I,  Under  your  shroud  of  death  beseech and call unto the Ancient
   Forms:

      AZAG - Sumerian Demon and Father of Lineage ripping through the black
   night  with  the ferocious blood lust of a thousand time thrice jackals.
   Your  glance  with  blind  eyes is transfiguration unto the brothers and
   sisters  of  the  Blood  of  Tempel Azagthoth and discord and terror for
   those who oppose us. We are Black Ones great AZAG ! We Feed and Fire and
   Fury! AZAG hear our calling!

      TUTANKHAMEN - Lord of Egypt and the sorcerers of the pyramids and the
   hot  desert nights - upon the breaking of your ancient seals your powers
   of  death were unleashed for the glory of the Vampire and the culling of
   mankind! Thirteen have been slain to rise what is 13, Bless us with your
   horrific  touch  that  we  may  slay  many  more in honor of our Family.
   TUTANKHAMEN hear our voice!

   --

      The  Vampire  shall  now  wish to lie down to sleep to let the powers
   manifest  themselves  and  fructify  within the unconscious mind. Before
   allowing  sleep  to  overtake  you,  visualize  a  demon breathing green
   colored  smoke  from  his mouth. Inhale this smoke within yourself. This
   rite  will  further  cause  Alchemical  change  and  cultivate the death
   current within the witch/wizard. There are some risks that this rite may
   incur,  take  any physical reactions to this invokation as a part of the
   alchemical  change taking place. Force yourself to enter into the states
   that  come  willingly.  This  rite  may  also be performed as a ceremony
   with  more  than one vampire under the same circumstances as above, with
   all participants reciting the invokation.
