So this procession of figures that stooped and seemed larger than men went southward down the road and a lame dwarf hobbled behind them. Khamazan, now called the City of the Last of Temples, lies southward of the Nydoon hills.

All the morning he saw the dust rising above the strange figures and always they went southwards right as far as the rim of the Nydoon hills where the white road could be seen no more. And the figures stooped and seemed to be larger than men, but all men seemed very large to Sarnidac, and he could not see clearly through the dust.

This is the story of Pompeides, now chief prophet of the only temple in the world, and greatest of all the prophets that have been: On the slopes of Nydoon I was seated once above Khamazan. There I saw figures in the morning striding through much dust along the road that leads across the world.
