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: off just ahead to make that terrible and unearthly quarry.
All
at once the yak uttered a cry and burst from his control, leaping
past him and darting on in a panic till it vanished down the narrow
slope toward the north. Stones kicked by its flying hooves fell
over the brink of the quarry and lost themselves in the dark without
any sound of striking bottom; but Carter ignored the perils of
that scanty path as he raced breathlessly after the flying steed.
Soon the left-behind cliffs resumed their course, making the way
once more a narrow lane; and still the traveller leaped on after
the yak whose great wide prints told of its desperate flight.
