[Excerpt from a monograph on encounters with the Outsider]
"It is a rare enough tale, but one which varies only in the tone and enthusiasm of its narrators. Select few are, through dreams or contact with shrines, transported to the Void and converse with the Outsider himself. Some, it is said, walk away from these encounters with his favor."
"However, if these stories are to be believed, then we must question the extent of his power in the Void. Does he choose these dialogues consciously? What is the nature of these conversations, if indeed they are intelligible? What is his physical nature in these moments?"
NOTES: - they still don't fuckin believe he's a person - I wonder if he hates Sokolov because he wants to study/dissect the Outsider like the Envisioned/Cult of the Outsider.
