When the Light Comes

"When the Light Comes" is a short story by author Mike VandeVenter, which is loosely related to the Cthulhu Mythos. It was published in the Gavin Chappell-edited anthology Swords Against Cthulhu II: Hyperborean Nights by Rogue Planet Press in January 2017. Aside from a vague reference to Aphoom-Zhah, it has little to do with the Mythos proper.
== Synopsis ==
A man whose village is attacked by barbarian raiders in service to Aphoom-Zhah is tricked into killing his wife and child. At this moment of realisation, he is inexplicably transported into the modern world, and he escapes from the attending police before disappearing into the night.
