This is the second piece in my Yog-Sothoth series that explores the dark depths of the following paragraph:

"Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate."

-H. P. Lovecraft, "The Dunwich Horror"

"Yog-Sothoth Knows the Gate"

"Yog-Sothoth knows the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the gate. Yog-Sothoth is the key and guardian of the gate." -H. P. Lovecraft, "The Dunwich Horror"

This is the first piece in a series of works that I'm creating based off that paragraph from "The Dunwich Horror." I've always found it to be very intriguing and now I'm exploring it in detail. These works are a chronicling of that journey.
