It is Said that They are DECEIVERS



How about Two Snakes 
coming together over 
A Black Sun? 

A magnificent 
standard. 
The only snakes I know of are 
those of Set, in those cursed towers
They have spread to every city. 
Two, three years ago, it was just 
another snake cult. Now, everywhere

It is said that They 
are DECEIVERS...
They murder people 
in The Night -- 

.....I know nothing


 

warlock (n.)
Old English wærloga "traitor, liar, enemy, devil," from wær "faith, fidelity; a compact, agreement, covenant," from Proto-Germanic *wera- (source also of Old High German wara "truth," Old Norse varar "solemn promise, vow"), from PIE root *were-o- "true, trustworthy." Second element is an agent noun related to leogan "to lie" (see lie (v.1); and compare Old English wordloga "deceiver, liar").

Original primary sense seems to have been "oath-breaker;" given special application to the devil (c. 1000), but also used of giants and cannibals. Meaning "one in league with the devil" is recorded from c. 1300. Ending in -ck (1680s) and meaning "male equivalent of a witch" (1560s) are from Scottish.
