FOREWORD:
Blessings of Lord Volkruss be upon you, fellow Servant of the Great Destroyer!
It has been my immense honor to watch over the Tesseract and its archives for almost one thousand years. Time stands still in this place, which lies between the mortal world, and the dread planes - it is here I make my abode, keeping watch over the vaults and their contents, ensuring that they are made... comfortable, as it were. Here, if you are so inclined to visit, you will find the true history of the world, as well as every artifact, tome, and magical beast ever collected by our organization, placed under the appropriate seals, until such a time that their use be necessitated in our noble goals.
But, beware.
These arcane relics are far from inert, infused with magic that is ancient, malefic, and possessed of a will of its own - they seek the hands of fools to grasp them, that they might act through them! Tread with great care, and above all else: - don't touch.
Within the pages of this volume, you will find a summary of several texts reproduced at the request of his Holiness, Archbishop Lao Xi Feng, to be issued at once to all of our brethren in preparation for renewed war with our hated enemy, the Sirens of Carcosa (May the Ruin of Volkruss fall upon them swiftly!). I have taken the liberty of supplementing it with material gathered from the unbaptized masses, for whom a variant of this, I am to understand, will be produced - in form suitable for their consumption, of course.
The Carcosan blasphemers and heretics worship at the altar of Rasmuno Lasfitot, God of Balance. We had believed them to be eradicated, as a result of our holy crusade barely two hundred years prior, but it appears as if this is not the case. But, do not be afraid, dear brothers and sisters! We are so fortunate as to be blessed with a chance to crush them yet again, and to relive the glory of sinking Carcosa into the sea once more!
While I am unable to join you on your noble march, my services are ever at your disposal.
Praise be to Shiva Volkruss, the one true God!!
Signed;
Brother Reginald Thorpe, Archivist

Note from Archbishop Lao:
As of recent events, this file has been re-opened and updated. Some information may be out of date, and any additional details uncovered are to be forwarded to record-keepers as soon as possible for inclusion.
In addition, kindly ignore the advice of the Archivist, and submit any requests for access to the Tesseract directly to your coven leaders, as Brother Thorpe's authority to grant said permissions is under review following the "Spear of Vaxxis" incident two weeks ago.
