Misc. Author Info       : I am your trip sitter for this one. That's probably
                         not too cryptic.

Description             : You are a hero of the king's retinue, and you have
                         been dispatched to investigate the loss of contact
                         with a remote monastic order. Hopefully all is
                         well...

                         Desecration is a vanilla compatible but crispy
                         suggested Hexen wad featuring an 8 level hub. There
                         are a lot of tricks involving the software
                         renderer, so this doesn't play too nice with
                         GZDoom. There is a patch to fix the worst of the
                         issues if you insist on having a subpar experience
                         :p.

Additional Credits to   : grymmjack for making a very nice video series
                         playing through the beta of this set. ETTiNGRiNDER
                         for answering all my Hexen questions. The PUSS crew
                         for being generally encouraging ILY all mwah.
                         Richard Puttner for making the cool titlepic image
                         way back in 1871 for the magazine Die Gartenlaub.
                         I will stress he worked for it before it was bought
                         by Nazis.
