thank you for calling her an outer god

as the elder gods are products of august derelith adding some good vs evil bullshit which completely undermined the whole point of the mythos

I suppose the point of Lovecraft's writing is just to show how Grimdark everything is?

I thought Elder Gods was just a Mortal Kombat thing.

In MK they just sit around and do fuck all.

Except help the heroes save the day at the last moment.

it's about how

frivilous

and pointless humanity is

we cannot even comprehend a fraction of the vastness of the universe

the fear isn't from the monsters

it's what they represent

they don't care

they really do not care about humanity at all, their actions regarding are are purely coincidental, or ambivalent, because we do not matter

the only one who seems to actually bother tormenting us delibrately is nyarlahotep

it's about the unknown, how we cannot possibly ever know these things because our existence is just some accidental cosmic joke

so adding good and evil to it, that's silly

that ruins the nihilistic ideals in the works, having deities care about us goes against everything lovecraft worked to establish

we don't matter, it would all continue without us

unnecessary

grimdark is an inappropriate word

One spec in a galaxy far bigger than we can imagine in a universe where our Galaxy is like the size of Earth in our Galaxy.

The fact that if the sun went supernova-

The Earth would be gone in under an hour.

Says something.

No hero can save the day when we're all char-grilled.

I have the best idea right now. But I cannot implement it at the moment.
