Doom Threshold: 5
Enough playing with you. I will have what is owed to me.
You think you can simply venture into this land of dreams with no consequence? With impunity? With no spilt blood?
Who are you to partake of such fantasy? To intrude on the dreams of others like a parasite? To devour these dreams like they are yours to enjoy? Out with you! I shall rend your mind from your skull as one skins a cat. Look, see: I am cracking open your skull, and pouring out your you. And now, I am filling it with me. You are no longer. Did you really think there would be any other result? Out with you, now. Begone.
Each investigator is defeated and driven insane.

Hei! Aa-shanta ’nygh! / I am true Chaos / look not upon my shape for it is ever-changing / I commanded you to keep reading / look not upon my face for it is no face at all / I told you to stop running / listen not for the truth for the truth is a lie / I warned you not to dream / Mine and mine alone / Nobody else can have it / I dared you not to fight / Run then, rabbit, run / there is nothing more / I cherish the chase / nothing / nothing

Journey Through the Cold Wastes
Type: Act
Encounter Set: Where the Gods Dwell
Clue Threshold: 2
Traversing the wastes of Leng is no easy task. The cold bites at your skin, and the bitter winds lash against your face. Even if you encounter no nameless monsters, the land itself may still yet claim your life. You try desperately to stay warm, but there is no refuge in the icy desolation. Exhausted, you collapse into a nearby snowdrift. To your surprise, you feel hard stone thrust into your ribcage. The pain shocks you out of your enervation, and you brush aside the snow to examine what it hides. Eventually, you uncover a curious stone idol in the shape of a horned creature, which glows and vibrates with faint energy. In the distance, you hear a stone slab shifting in the snow.
Reveal the Monastery of Leng.
Spawn the set-aside High Priest Not to Be Described enemy in the Monastery of Leng.

You have come to the land of Leng, a barren, icy wasteland where you believe the peak of unknown Kadath resides. All the while, you are taunted by a presence which gnaws at your insides, a wordless, derisive voice which you cannot hear but feel within the confines of your mind.
