He soon heard the iron clad of the step of the hackney coach. And then the coachman's voice, and then the heavy rolling shook the windows. He darted to the bedroom to see all that he had loved in the world, but the hackney coach drove on without either the head of Mercedes or her son appearing at the window to take a last look at the house or the deserted father or husband. But at the very moment when the wheels of that coach passed the gateway, a report was heard, and [[DrivenToSuicide a thick smoke escaped from one the panes of the window, which was broken by the explosion]].

->''"See, Lovecraft's stories haven't remained popular so long just because his monsters are scary. They endure because his monsters are metaphors for existential alienation. It's not the appearance of the monsters in his stories, it's the reality of them, the fact that they exist. Their existence alone proves that humanity is doomed and that all our hopes and dreams are stupid. Running into one of Lovecraft's Elder Gods is like finding a strange pair of underwear in your bed and realizing that your spouse is cheating on you. It's not the underwear itself that's stabbing you in the heart; it's the betrayal it represents. Lovecraft's monsters are proof to the protagonist that the universe is not benevolent. Finding strange underwear might mean that your spouse never loved you; stumbling upon a Lovecraft creature means that God never loved you."''
