Surpu Masu

Summary:

Where the Anunnaki created Ai Suru, a giant scapegoat, to carry the regrets of the world back to the perdition from which they belong.

Story:

Loosely translated from the Sumerian (if we are incorrect in our grammar we humbly apologize, it is difficult to find one of the 40 or so people who actually speak the Sumerian language), Surpu Masu translates to "Goat of Burning Exorcism". Based upon the nailing of evils and other ancient forms of banishing, Surpu Masu was a foundation project for The Anunnaki, exploring the facets of ancient scapegoat behavior.
