I'm back from the abyss. It was dark and scary.
The creature.
I was kidnapped by Mickey Mouse, Goofy, and Donald, and thrown in a bag of holding. Somehow, me being in the bag produced milk, which they sold, and the whole time the words “Milk Bags” were being repeated over and over to the tune of the Number Taker theme from Numberjacks.
How does magic work in Call of Cthulhu and the mythos in general? A few possibilities:
Yog-Sothoth hypothesis: The Lurker at the Threshold often venerated by eldritch mages is locked away from our reality, but can still interact with it through a few ways. Magic is one of these: the sorcerer becomes a small portal through which the All-In-One can seep into our world and affect change. Every time a spell is cast, the barrier between our universe and Yog-Sothoth deteriorates. No wonder it is so damaging to sanity!
Azathoth hypothesis: Our Universe is but a dream of our creator, the blind idiot god Azathoth. Have you ever heard a sound or have someone say something while you were asleep, and it affected your dream? Well, through learning the arcane language that Azathoth understands, you may do the same thing to his dream i.e. our reality! Better hope you don't overdo it, or you might wake him up and erase us all from existence...
Nyarlathotep hypothesis: Magic isn't real. It's all Nyarlathotep making it look like spells work. He does this because it's funny.
The first part seems to basically just be: "Don't be autistic". Not particularly surprising, but sad nonetheless.
