The Stalker Between the Stars I smelled the strange winds that roar between the worlds, bearing the odors of darkling planets and the souls of sundered stars. I felt about me the emptiness of remote and infinite vacuums of space, and their coldness. I saw, blazing on a panoply of jet, unknown constellations and nameless nebulae stretching out and away through the light years into unthinkable abysses of space. Finally, winging through the nearer voids, I spied that enigmatic coffin-shape recognized of old, and again, as in delirious dreams, I heard my lost friend's voice. I yelled in spontaneous response and would have answered yet again, but then, swelling out of the blackness in the wake of Crow's weird craft, bloating up in a green glow, filling my entire view in an instant, there came... A shape! Cthulhu!
