The Abominations Of Nephren-Ka

"The Abominations of Nephren-Ka" is a short story by authors Mark McLaughlin and Michael Sheehan, Jr. 
==Synopsis==
When the High Priest of Horus, a man named Mnekh, discovers the existence of a city hidden near his home, he resolves to put an end to the evil festering within. Gathering about himself an army of the righteous, he marches on the City of Night, but is betrayed by one he saw as a friend and his men slaughtered. Despite this setback, he manages to cleanse the city by calling on the power of his god, who burns the evil with cleansing fire. 
==Characters==
*Mnekh, a child born of Horus who grows up to become the head of his cult. 
*Tsoth/Nephren-Ka, a wicked king who has prolonged his life through sacrifices to his dark god. 
*The Living Shroud, an avatar of Nyarlathotep.
*Pash, Mnekh's mother. 
==Publication History==
"The Abominations of Nephren-Ka" was published in the anthology Horrors & Abominations: 24 Tales of the Cthulhu Mythos in 2018.
==Trivia==
*The story mentions that evil came to the City of Night through a strange artefact dubbed the Eye of Yuggoth. Given the description of the Eye and its function, this is certainly intended to be the Shining Trapezohedron from H. P. Lovecraft's short story "The Haunter of the Dark".
