After many seasons of darkness and silence, Vision and Hearing came to the Prophet Yahoel in the last cycle of the first season of the reign of Ramses IV, and he stood in the Assembly to declare the revelation.

{I saw the desert wastes shrouded in darkness
—The dunes seething under fire and gloom

Yet in that night the light of stars shimmered softly;
—A path through desolation shone under silver gleam,
——Tenuous and thin, hidden save for the light of heaven.

But the dunes in their rage could not cover it, 
—Nor the blinding dustcloud obscure its secret.

The sand-dragon moved across the expanse
—with the storm beneath its wings,
Balaq and its spawn, servants of chaos
—cast down into the waste.

Hungering after the light of daybreak and twilight,
—they laid siege to the path.

But the Balaq]ithi could neither follow the path
—nor consume its light, 
And the sand-dragon]s fury rang with flame and darkness
—against the inviolable heavens.

Then I heard a voice call out, 
—[Come! The hour is at hand.]
And I saw one walking the silver path that led to the circle of 
——heaven
—Where dawn and dusk make their home.

The sand-dragon turned to arraign itself against the Walker,
—Sending fire and storm to consume him, 
——the dustcloud to oversweep him.

Again the voice called out across the circle of heaven, 
—[Come! The hour of salvation is at hand!]}

{Therefore know this,} Yahoel said. {The time of change is upon us. It comes in the reign of Ramses, and lies along the new path now opened through the stars. But destruction surrounds it, eager to consume us all. We are summoned beyond the horizon, for the home of Dusk and Dawn lies beyond all sight and knowledge. But while the summons is given, it remains to be seen whether the Walker will follow the path through desert and storm, or turn his face towards the chaos and be swept away.}
