But the idea that the machinations of the elder gods are comprehensible to us is absurd. And what we learned was terrifying enough. We only ever learned second hand what Yog-Sothoth was. It's mysterious because the only interaction we had with it was via proxy. Yog-Sothoth is so colossal in scale, we can barely comprehend it as an idea. They were so far beyond the realm of human understanding, the most we could do was ascribe motives and ideas to them that were never quite accurate. The whole point of their works was to expose us to a cosmos, a mythos, far beyond our comprehension. The big three original eldritch horror writers created something new. He spits upon the founders of eldritch horror and deserves nothing from you. And he safely locked away all the "evil" ones so that all of us can live in peace. He took their cosmic mystery and turned them all into the equivalent of the Greek pantheon.
He applied "good" and "evil" to the eldritch horrors. Brian Lumley takes everything Lovecraft, Smith, and Chambers built and pisses upon it.
