O BEINGS OF THE CORRIDORS OF THE DEAD.
I HAVE WITH ME A NEOPHYTE, NOBLY BORN, WHO WOULD BE INSTRUCTED IN THE WAYS OF DEATH AND LIFE. FEARING NOT DEATH IN THE JAWS OF MINOTAUR OR SUFFOCATION FROM NEGLECT, KNOWING THAT HAVING ENTERED, THERE CAN BE NO EXIT BY THIS ENTRANCE, THE BEING I SEND TO YOU WOULD ATTEMPT TO PASS THE FORTY-NINE STAGES INTO THE CLEAR LIGHT OF KNOWING THAT OPENS BEYOND DARKNESS.
