MARDUK'S
CLEAVER
When Marduk slayed the dragon
Tiamat, the weapons he used in the battle became
well known and celebrated. However, the act
which formed the heavens and the earth, the
slicing in half of Tiamat's corpse, was done
with a cleaver whose very existence was denied
by Marduk and all who followed him. This tool,
which was used to fashion our world, now passes
hands among the Undead Kings of the arid East;
their dread plaything used to sunder entire
nations and peoples.
