The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath by H. P. Lovecraft: rose to obscure the stars, and the deck grew damp, and the vessel
reeled in the surging current of the brink. Then with a queer
whistle and plunge the leap was taken, and Carter felt the terrors
of nightmare as earth fell away and the great boat shot silent
and comet-like into planetary space. Never before had he known
what shapeless black things lurk and caper and flounder all through
the aether, leering and grinning at such voyagers as may pass,
and sometimes feeling about with slimy paws when some moving object
excites their curiosity. These are the nameless larvae of the
Other Gods, and like them are blind and without mind, and possessed
of singular hungers and thirsts.
