In secret places

In secret places underneath the Kharidian Desert, in alcoves in hundreds of isolation cells of the tunnels that snake this way and that, hidden by the shifting sands, a prayer echoes, repeated without cease.

May the wrath of our Lady, the Devourer, be with Gordon Freeman

May his death spread like a plague

May he bring enlightenment to our enemies

The Devourer knows that Gordon intends on bringing the wrath contained in the urn of dead stars to bear should his mission fail, but she also knows that divine wrath can't hurt.
