This is more difficult than you might think, at least when Yibb-Tstll is involved. Even once we get past all those pesky nightgaunts, there&#8217;s the whole, um, moving target aspect to deal with. And the less said about that snog with Bugg-Shash, the better. Maybe we&#8217;ll just stick with Shudde-M&#8217;ell. At least he knows how to make the earth move.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Main Topic: Call of Cthulhu Deities &#8212; Shudde M’ell, Yibb-Tstll and Bugg-Shash<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This episode is our latest exploration of the deities of the Cthulhu Mythos.
