The Second Punishment of Cthulhu
[August Derleth's Cthulhu Mythos]
The Elder Gods (1) had to take action against Cthulhu twice, first imprisoning him, and later immobilizing him even within his prison.
’Twas done then as it had been promis’d afore time, that He was tak’n by Those Whom He Defy’d, and thrust into ye Neth’rmost Deeps und’r ye Sea, and placed within ye barnacl’d Tower that is said to rise amidst ye great ruin that is ye Sunken City (R’lyeh), and seal’d within by ye Elder Sign, and, rag’g at Those who had imprison’d Him, He furth’r incurr’d Their anger, and They, descend’g upon him for ye second time, did impose upon Him ye semblance of Death, but left Him dream’g in that place under ye great waters . . . [Lurker]
