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: pictures of an octopus, a dragon, and a human caricature, I shall
not be unfaithful to the spirit of the thing. A pulpy, tentacled
head surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings;
but it was the general outline of the whole which made it most
shockingly frightful. Behind the figure was a vague suggestions
of a Cyclopean architectural background.
The writing accompanying
this oddity was, aside from a stack of press cuttings, in Professor
Angell's most recent hand; and made no pretense to literary style.
What seemed to be the main document was headed "CTHULHU CULT"
in characters painstakingly printed to avoid the erroneous reading
Call of Cthulhu |
