    Finally gets a taxi to pick him up

    The taxi is old as fuck and the driver looks ugly as shit and has the smell of dead fish about him

    He doesn’t even listen when you tell him where you want to go

    He drops you off in front of a motel in a run-down fishing hamlet

    Some drunk dude starts screaming at you to leave, that you’re in danger, and that the Marsh family has made a pact with the devil

    Get chased by fish people in the night after you rent a room at the hotel

    Run into a deadly jello mold

    Find out your grandmother was a fish person

    Lose your mind

    Get locked up in an asylum

      The cult has discovered your lineage, they’re attempting to bring you “home”. They’re trying not to tip you off by sort of complying with your requests. The taxi is being driven by a deep one, or someone who is close to transforming.

      That’s assuming far too much active interest on Dread Cthulhu’s part in what happens to this insect.

        Your best guess is the very obvious conclusion of a joke and then replying to someone just saying that? You’re not wrong, it’s just weird and very dumb to think “yeah, I’ll reply with this”.

    At first I thought someone tried to get you to carry their elicit drugs to another country for them

    Now I’m just confused.

      Drug smugglers have figured out ways to not only hide drugs inside statues, but to actually make drugs INTO statues. I remember reading about some Columbian drug gang that figured out a way to embed cocaine in a plastic in a manner that could be chemically separated once smuggled across the border. They were sending shipments of religious statues made out of cocaine. So I suppose that Cthulu statue could actually be 30% coke.
