Aeons pass. Cults rise and fall. But the fear of the petrifying gaze is immortal.
This tale, begins in the respectable Cabot Museum in Boston. The museum's curator is charged with housing a baffling artifact recovered from a long-sunken, recently re-emerged island in the Pacific: a perfectly preserved, petrified mummy of unknown, impossibly ancient origin.
The mummy, recovered alongside a strange metal cylinder containing an equally cryptic scroll, soon attracts the attention of suspicious foreign visitors and dark, secret cults. Through the curator's research, the horrifying truth of the mummy's identity is slowly revealed.
It is the body of T'yog, a priest from the mythical, pre-human continent of Mu, who challenged the Great Old One, Ghatanothoa. This entity--a colossal, tentacled, octopus-eyed horror--was one of the sons of Cthulhu and possessed the power to permanently petrify any living creature that looked upon its face. The victim, though turned to stone, would remain eternally alive and conscious within their immobilized body.
The museum becomes the stage for a desperate attempt by cultists to revive T'yog, which results in a terrifying, momentary glimpse of the undying horror that lies within the mummy's eye--a vision that shatters reality and leaves a new, petrified victim in its wake.
Out of the Aeons is a vital piece of the Cthulhu Mythos, introducing the profound dread of Ghatanothoa and exploring the themes of undying, physicalized terror, forbidden lore, and the unsettling reality that the monsters of myth are still active in the modern world.
