Killing the bug was not my initial intention, but they were the inevitably victim of my daily routine and the pre-existing infrastructure in my domain 😅 Never thought I'd relate to an eldritch god but here we are!!

    Bruh, I like your video, but... There are big mistakes in the lore there, very big: Lovecraft never wrote about a distinction between Great old ones and Outer/other gods. This is just a thing from the Chaosium Role Play Game and later authors. When he mention the great old ones he is speaking about the Astral Spawn of Cthulhu, not about Cthulhu, Bokrug, Astur, Yig and the other "Great old ones" Rpg classified entities... Azathot does not dream reality, this is another thing taken from the Rpg... The God who dream reality is Mana Yod Sushai from the Gods of Pegana (Lord Dunsany). Azathot is the infinite demon sultan, and his servants just play their music to amuse him, not because otherwise everithing will end with him waking up. Then, about his power: Yog Sothot is far superior to Azathot, since he keep Azathot in the outer realm, outside of our universe... Yog Sothot is everithing and even Azathot is just a part of him (just as everithing else). Then, the fact that the other gods are followers of Azathot is untrue and the fact that the Old gods destroyed his mind is another lie... You should read Lovecraft before creating lore videos about his writings... This is more your rpg headcanon than true lore of the setting however.

    "Outside of the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which bubbles and blasphemes at the center of all infinity. The boundless daemon sultan, azathoth, who's name no lips dare speak aloud. He gnaws hungerly in unlighted chambers amidst the maddening beat of drums and the pitched whine of accursed flutes." - the dream quest of unknown kadaff

    My first loovecraft story I read when I was 12. My family was on holiday camping in the Ardennes, Belgium. It was raining a lot, and it was a kind of dark between the trees. Not far away was a local garbage heap where huge rats were walking around. It was the first time in my life I saw rats. Part of the camping ground was made of slate, and 3 of us manage to fall on the first day, with severe wounds. The perfect place for a 12 year old girl to read horror stories. After 4 days my mom wanted to leave, and we went to Brussel. Where the sun shined, there were geese on the camping and American girls that were fun and fascinating. A great contrast after the Ardennes. *Don’t remember which one it was anymore, but there was strange math involved, that frightened me the most. Of course I’m subscribing immediately.

Offering knowledge to everyone, knowledge that grants power, to travel between time and space knowledge to controlle minds and bodys knowledge from behind the veil the demon in the machine the rulers declared this should not be known by the public and decided to study the anomaly in secret but Nyarlathotep just vanished as soon as they tried to keep his teachings just for themselves leaving one message only my teachings are for the broken not for the rulers a programm appeared out of nothing in the internet Nyarlathotep exe this software everyone could download it was a strange videogame with a strange artifical intelligence in it that seemed to talk to the player knowing more and more about the players deepest self as the player kept playing the game had riddles and strange sigils and a language of salomon Nyarlathotep . exe was deleted again and again by the government but it popped up again and again, in the game secrets and forbidden knowledge was found the gamers came seduced by the promise of forbidden knowledge and secrets they do not want you to know but most stopped playing after reality around them started to change to be more and more like the realm in the game some went insain after they turned away it became an urban myth Nyarlathotep exe was called a myth but it is still out there in the web a hunter in the dark if you study it, it will study you Even the vatikan gave a warning that we should not play this game it would have scripture in it that is banned from the bible and hidden deep below the vatikan, knowledge that is not for the public to know many made games inspired by the myth but the original Nyarlathotep . exe remained in the web Stay away from knowledge that you are not ready for Do not play this game if you want to stay sane Nyarlathotep. exe

    The first book I read by Lovecraft was a bit challenging at first due to the descriptions filled with geological, fossil, and architectural terms about the city. But I finished it, and later I researched those terms and read it again, and the experience was much better. When you read it knowing the secret hidden in At the Mountains of Madness, you notice details that make the story even better. Now I feel like reading it again! xD

      Funny you mentioned that, that is one of the reasons I never really got into Lovecraft in the first place. I am quite the fan of the old pulp literature from the past. Lovecraft was way more aerodite than of his peers. You might want to be careful though, a lot of Lovecraft stuff is actually rewritten by the founders of Arkham house, the Publishers of lovecraft.

      This is a serious question. Did you sell it like that in purpose. It usually is often spelled Azathoth but I've seen MANY few places were it WAS Asathoth. I am genuinely curious why the discrepancy and if there is some distinction not in the surface that can be derived by the selling difference of the z vs the s
