The Return of the Shadow

This tragedy had to do with the foreign civilization but what was the connection? Gu Jun sat on the chair in the corridor as he tried back to think back to that illusion. Many emotions wrestled in his mind. One thing was certain though, the foreign civilization had chosen a different path than the R'yleh cultists. They did not abandon their faith, nor did they join the Son of Misfortune, instead, they instilled greater faith into the real Goddess of Life, the Lord of the Woods. 

The Goddess of Life is Shub-Niggurath and Shub-Niggurath is the Goddess of Life. Is that really the case?

Gu Jun was silent. He knew that the Carlot Doctor had to make 'sacrifices' to gain power from the Goddess of Life. Carlot Doctors sacrificed themselves to save others, it was why they were so respected. Did the doctors know from the beginning that the Goddess of Life was not a force of light but… a purified version of the Black Goat of the Woods?
