The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Call of Cthulhu by H. P. Lovecraft: exist, hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world
until the time when the great priest Cthulhu, from his dark house
in the mighty city of R'lyeh under the waters, should rise and
bring the earth again beneath his sway. Some day he would call,
when the stars were ready, and the secret cult would always be
waiting to liberate him.
Meanwhile no more must be told. There
was a secret which even torture could not extract. Mankind was
not absolutely alone among the conscious things of earth, for
shapes came out of the dark to visit the faithful few. But these
were not the Great Old Ones. No man had ever seen the Old Ones.
