The Unnamable II: The Statement of Randolph Carter Page #2

---

Within her is a demon I summoned -

God forgive me! -

and I cannot send it back.

Pages I cannot find... Those pages...

But beWare - it Will destroy you

and destroy this World.

You must destroy it.

I cannot. It is my daughter...

and again it's not my daughter.

But that Which is my daughter I cannot kill.

You must destroy it. I cannot.

I... No... This isn't real.

I'm dreaming. I'm...

I'm not dreaming.

All right, HoWard. I believe you.

Just don't fall asleep.

Yes.

Yes. They're my students. I'll deal With it.

Hello, Amelia.

- 'Chancellor Thayer, Carter is here.'

- I see him. Thank you.

- Sit doWn, Carter.

- No, thank you, Chancellor Thayer.

Last night, four of your students died.

Yes, I knoW that.

They Weren't killed by Wild dogs

as the police claim.

I knoW this sounds ludicrous, but they Were

killed by a 300-year-old creature

and if We don't do something fast,

no one Will believe us.

This is Arkham, Carter,

not NeW York, not Boston.

That's Why We have to expose this thing.

This "thing"? This mythical "thing"?

- You've seen it With your oWn eyes?

- No.

You've touched it? You can sWear

on your life that it isn't a hoax?

- I can't, but...

- Yes.

Four students have died,

but We have no proof Who did it.

It could be a raving lunatic and yet

you're ready to go public With some tale

about a 300-year-old creature

living in an attic.

I greW up in Arkham, Carter.

I knoW the story.

I've also read your statement

and the police report.

We've enough trouble With four deaths.

If you add Witchcraft, Satanism

and a demon from hell

We're going to have a media circus.

Are you ready to bring all that

on this toWn and university?

Yes, sir. We have to face it.

You're a brilliant student, Carter,

but you're a fool.

Nobody's going to believe you.

Nobody's going to help you.

You knoW about this.

You knoW about that place.

You have no idea

What forces you've stumbled on.

- And you do?

- I don't stumble on them.

I respect them and leave them alone,

and so does everybody else.

Ignorance.

Damn stupid 1 7th-century ignorance.

That's What's Wrong

With you and this toWn.

This toWn Was cursed

long before the 1 7th century

and there isn't anything

you or I can do to change that.

If you pursue this,

you'll end up like your friends.

Yes, sir.

- Have you seen Professor Warren?

- Upstairs reading room.

- Professor Warren.

- Oh, hello, Carter. Do sit doWn.

- I have to talk to you.

- What have you got there?

Before I shoW you this...

The old Joshua Winthrop house by the

cemetery. What do you knoW about it?

Ha. Quite a lot, actually.

The place has a most dismal reputation.

As a matter of fact
