The first excerpt represents the past or something you must release, and is drawn from At the Mountains of Madness by H. P. Lovecraft: noticed this belt of carving was hinted by the presence of a used
flashlight battery on the floor in front of one of the most characteristic

Since we could not afford to spend any considerable
time in study, we resumed our advance after a cursory look; though
frequently casting beams over the walls to see if any further
decorative changes developed. Nothing of the sort was perceived,
