Slowly working out the mythology for NIGHTLAND RACER. World-ending disaster caused by a Pythagorean cult that tried to restart the sun, but accidentally destroyed it and summoned an entity from nether dimensions to replace it. The entity takes the form of a hideous anti-star.

Maybe a Gnostic seer had a vision of the Nightland and his audience misheard the Latin "angulus" as the Greek "angelos." A lot of SF writers play with Gnostic themes, but I'd like to do a more honest take that portrays the Gnostics as misguided lunatics and occultists.

The cuneiform symbols for "angle hook" and "ghost" or "demon" are similar. I think Mr. Wood may be on to something... http://mugsarsumerian.com/default.htm You'd have to compare them in the original antediluvian cuneiform to be sure, of course.pic.twitter.com/heV4tH0zSb

Nice find! Sometimes I get lucky and stumble across some arcane bit of information that fits.
