I, Sir Tamperiziroz of Uzul Dalhroom, shall write with my left hand since I have no longer any other.

The tale of everything that befell to Ru V on Palios and myself in the shrine of the God Sathogua, which lies neglected by the worship of man in the rulers. I shall write it with the violet juice of the suvarna palm, which turns to a blood-red

rubric with the passage of years on a strong vellum that is made from the skin of the

A lot.

In my brain, you know, when I read these kinds of stories,

So in the story, whenever I read the name Tiro on Polyos, it just in my head immediately converted to

Olympia Dukakis.

You ever do that?

Do you know what I mean? I wish it was Olivia

Dudukakis. Anyway, what is it that we're reading? That's the first paragraph

from Clark Ashton Smith's The Tale of Zatampra Zeros, a story well liked by the author

H.P. Lovecraft and guess what that's why we're talking about it here on the

H.P. Lofcraft literary podcast. Right, Zatampra Zeros or as my brain read at the tale of Tourist Aitana.

Who was our reader that we heard there at the top?

That is the delightful Greg Johnson, actor, filmmaker, extraordinary.

You can see his stuff at his YouTube page. We'll link out to it in

the show notes. He's got some really funny stuff in there.
