Сомнамбулический поиск неведомого Кадата
In post-Lovecraft stories, the Elder Gods oppose the likes of Cthulhu. Derleth attempted to retroactively group the benevolent deity Nodens in this category (who acts as "deus ex machina" for the protagonists in both "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" and "The Strange High House in the Mist"). Joseph S. Pulver mentions in his "Nightmare's Disciple" (2006) a set of original Elder Gods, but offers no descriptions of their true forms. The story introduces entities as "Adaedu", "Alithlai-Tyy", "Dveahtehs", "Eyroix", "Ovytonv", "Urthuvn", "Xislanyx" and "Xuthyos-Sihb’Bz"'. Others have a cult title as "Othkkartho" ("Sire of the Four Titans of Balance and Order"), which is said to be Nodens's son, and "Zehirete", who is "The Pure and Holy Womb of Light". "Sk'tai" and "Eppirfon" are both siblings. Eppirfon was originally Cthulhu's second bride who bore him a son, "T'ith", now dead, murdered by Cthulhu himself.
