The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from At the Mountains of Madness by H. P. Lovecraft: compared with which the fabled Atlantis and Lemuria, Commoriom
and Uzuldaroum, and Olathoc in the land of Lomar, are recent things
of today - not even of yesterday; a megalopolis ranking with such
whispered prehuman blasphemies as Valusia, R’lyeh, Ib in the land
of Mnar, and the Nameless city of Arabia Deserta. As we flew above
that tangle of stark titan towers my imagination sometimes escaped
all bounds and roved aimlessly in realms of fantastic associations
- even weaving links betwixt this lost world and some of my own
wildest dreams concerning the mad horror at the camp.
The plane’s
fuel tank, in the interest of greater lightness, had been only
At the Mountains of Madness |
