Miskatonic University Library Association (MULA) Monograph #0353 The translation of the above graffiti should be well known to most fans of the Cthulhu Mythos. It is In his house at Rlyeh, dead Cthulhu waits dreaming. For a time the Roman Empire stretched across most of the known world uniting various peoples under its rule. Cultures met, clashed, were conquered and changed one another in the processes. Information traveled along Roman roads along with goods and troops, spreading knowledge and enlightenment throughout the empire. Rome, for some, meant civilization, order and justice. For others it meant enslavement, oppression and occupation. It was the crest of historys tide, and when it was gone darkness and chaos reigned for nearly a thousand years. But for now the Roman Empire was a light that kept the dark ages at bay, but with every light there are always shadows.
