Image with Ten circles representing the Ten Kings:.It is presumably that the Ten Kings are the Ten Primordial Demons that feed on more abstract negative emotions, like Fiddlesticks like Fear and the Evelynn, which feeds Pain. At some point in time, the Ten Kings disappeared and their reign of terror ended, possibly because they were sealed, but that was long before it could be recorded in history. The true origin of the primordial demons is unknown, but we know that the first of them, Fiddlesticks, arose in the 'cry of creation' itself. One left to scratch upon their mounds, The crow, alive and dead. Ten great kings took ten great thrones, Nine crowns adorned nine heads. In the poem, nine of the kings have crowns, but the First of Ten, Fiddlesticks, does not, despite being the oldest and most powerful of his brothers, It is also known that Evelynn is the Primordial Demon of Pain, Tahm Kench is also a primodial demon and Nocturne has become a primordial force of pure terror. The name 'Ten Kings' comes from an old Demacian poem by an unknown author, which describes demons as rulers on thrones. Over the centuries, poems and legends have been passed down for generations to scare children or add an air of mystery around folk tales, although few really believe these tales to be true.

Hôtellerie - HCR - convention collective brochure n☃292 - Dernière Édition.He published more than 40 works on mythology and the occult, including History of Atlantis, An Introduction to Mythology, and Myth and Ritual in Dance, Game and Rhyme. Scottish journalist and folklorist LEWIS SPENCE (1874 -1955) was a Fellow of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, and Vice-President of the Scottish Anthropological and Folklore Society. A delight for devotees of the weird and the strange, and a valuable resource for students of mythology and the evolution of scientific thought, this important volume is at home in the libraries of all book lovers.

Spence organizes a world's worth of magic - from 'Ab' (a magical month in the ancient Semitic calendar) to 'Zulu witch-finders' - into 2,500 dictionary-style entries that explore concepts and personalities both familiar (Freemasonry, Morgan le Fay) and obscure: palingenesy (a process by which plants or vegetables are destroyed and then 'resurrected'), Leonora Galigai (a 17th-century Italian aristocrat who was burned as a witch). This 'compendium of information on the occult sciences, occult personalities, psychic science, demonology, spiritism, and mysticism' was one of a kind when it was first published in 1920 and is still considered the best in its field today.
