The Black Tarot

Czechoslovakia – 1941

I am writing this in the hopes that the truth will be revealed should the evil of Adolf Hitler ever overwhelm the world and devastate the nations of the free. My name is not important. I am a soldier stationed at Zbiroh Castle until the Führer withdraws here after establishing a local military governance. Herr Hitler is currently at Hradčany Castle in Mother Prague, from where he stole our once majestic kingdom and culture. But I do not know how much of this information is true. All I know is that I am here for nefarious reasons, to aid these tyrannical beasts in the plundering of Bohemia’s cultural treasures and precious antiquities.

I am not speaking out of turn here for fear of being discovered. Nobody knows who I really am, and that my ancestors were Bohemian aristocrats. I just go about my work as I am ordered, but I am entering a place of dire peril by writing this down. I am one of eight children born to the last consort of Bohemia, Charles I and IV – last Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary.

I was born in 1919 and my father died in Madeira in 1922. That is all you need to know of my identity. What I have to record here is far more important than my royal heritage, apart from the fact that the latter is why I have managed to gain access to the hidden chambers of Prague Castle, where I have visited as a child. Now, as a soldier in the army of the Führer by some twist of fate, I have to impress upon you, the reader, the importance of what I am about to tell you.

My specialty is explosives. I am a military explosives expert working for the SS and I was deployed to assist one of Hitler’s organizations with the removal and transport of certain artifacts seized from Prague’s Palace. Not being able to voice my grievance at this heinous violation of my own bloodline, I was forced to participate in the seizure – the theft – of Prague’s treasures. Knowing that Hitler’s dogs might locate the secret rooms during their occupation, I secretly collected a trunk of relics to include in the raid to be taken to Chateau Zbiroh and hidden there with the rest of the loot. It is the only way I can keep it from Hitler’s power-drunk claws. The trunk contains several religious relics and objects of obscure origin. I fear that the Thule Society, whom I have been summoned to assist, are involved in more than politics and war.

I do not know much about the occult, but I know what I feel. And I do not doubt the items in this chest appear to have some otherworldly power, if one believed in such things or not. Among these are various objects which could influence the turn of world events and the agents employing them.

Now, reader, I implore you to locate the chest from the well outside the Chateau Zbiroh where we were ordered to bury the stolen Nazi treasures.
