The introduction text:

It is written in the book of (god X):
 
    After the creation, the cruel god Moloch rebelled against the authority
    of Marduk the Creator. Moloch stole from Marduk the most powerful of all
    the artifacts of the gods, the Amulet of Yendor, and he hid it in the
    dark cavities of Gehennom, the Under World, where he now lurks, and
    bides his time.

Your god (god X) seeks to possess the Amulet, and with it to gain deserved
ascendance over other gods.

You, a newly trained (title X), have been heralded from birth as the instrument
of (god X). You are destined to recover the Amulet to your deity, or die in
the attempt. Your hour of destiny has come. For the sake of us all:
Go bravely with (god X)!
