A Perspective from Outside of Time

"The Old Ones are! The Old Ones have always been! The Old Ones will be forevermore!" Vxtrx lifted his clawed hands to the sky, the fire throwing his shadow hugely upon the cliff face. He might have been a tyrannosaurus rather than a mere compsognathus. "They are cruel, jealous gods. They demand sacrifice. Human sacrifice! If we do not provide them with the honor that is their dur, they will smite us all with fire from the sky!"

There was a lengthy pause. A stegosaurus whose cultist robe had been specially modified with plate-holes raised a forelimb.

"What's a human?"
