By the grace of Xanarus, Lord of X'chotl, hear these words.
 In a dream, our lord was visited by the serpent
Who was swollen with gluttony.
Our lord asked, 'What have you swallowed, to grow so large?'
It is Acheron' the serpent replied. Xanarus wept.
But why?' He asked the serpent.
Something greater has risen' The serpent replied.
Then a bird with radiant plumage flew down and laid a crown upon the brow of Xanarus and he awoke.
Thus has the oracle spoken, thus is it decreed.
We no longer swear fealty to Acheron.
All hail our Sorcerer-King, Lord of all that he surveys, Xanarus the mighty.
