Nasht and Kaman-Thah

Nasht and Kaman-Thah are a pair of fictional characters created by H. P. Lovecraft for his fantasy novel The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath.
==Description==
Nasht and Kaman-Thah are bearded, pshent-wearing priests who guard a cavern-temple where a pillar of flame burns. This Cavern of Flame is located just after the gates that separate the Waking World from the Dreamlands, following a stair of seventy steps that dreamers may descend when they enter the realm of dream. After Nasht and Kaman-Thah's station, there is a much longer stair of seven hundred steps, which dreamers may descend in order to pass through the Gate of Deeper Slumber, leading to the Enchanted Wood.
When Randolph Carter spoke to Nasht and Kaman-Thah about his desire to find Kadath, the priests advised against it, warning Carter that the Gods of Earth would be displeased, and reminding him that no human is aware of Kadath's location. (: The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath)
In "The Gods of Earth", by Gary Myers, Nasht and Kaman-Thah are themselves identified as Gods of Earth, along with Nath-Horthath.
