 The Chain of Aforgomon by Clark Ashton Smith
I was still weak with the loss of blood I had yielded to Xexanoth; my senses were full of strange shadows; my servitors, coming and going about me, were as phantoms, and scarcely I heeded the pale fear in their eyes or heard the dreadful things they whispered....
Then the aged high-priest Helpenor called aloud upon Aforgomon, offering himself as a mouthpiece to the god, and asking the god to pronounce through him the doom that was adequate for such enormities as those of which I had been judged guilty by my fellows.
We came ultimately to that sheer-falling gulf in which the spirit of Aforgomon is said to dwell.

 The Chain of Aforgomon By Clark Ashton Smith   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
It is indeed strange that John Milwarp and his writings should have fallen so speedily into semi-oblivion.
I had not even the slightest memory of myself as John Milwarp, and the long pageant of my terrestrial lives was as something that had never been -- or was yet to be.
After the chaining of the victim, he was left for a stated interim, to ponder his crime -- and haply to confront the dark divinity of Aforgomon.

 The Annotated Unspeakable Oath #4
Cult: Aforgomon is worshipped by humans in the Dreamlands, although it may also have a few interested followers in the waking world, into which its influence and powers equally extend.
As Lord of Time, Aforgomon's favor is sought by those seeking to change what has gone before, or to see what is yet to come; dealing with the Outer God, however, is very dangerous, and those who transgress against its domain suffer ageless tortures and agony.
Because it is one with time, Aforgomon is capable of moving at speeds which are beyond the understanding of the human mind: it may move forward or backward through time in less than a heartbeat.

 Aforgomons Creation [Poetic Prose]
(Part I, Aforgomon’s son) I saw the god-son, of Aforgomon, there was something in his gaze likened to a salty hurricane!
Like his father he tried to swallow me, but I escaped to the land and by the Tower of Kura, to its tower by the Black Sea: the tower now mostly underneath the deep; to his son, his creation, Aforgomon’s creation: I was free.
He was a cursed god to look at, a god of three tentacles, that had viper heads on each; himself, he had raging red flaming hair, and bloodshot eyes, fangs on the side of his mouth that hung over his lips, long ears like an elephants.

 Wizard with Words: An Appreciation of Clark Ashton Smith
There are stories set entirely in a fantasy universe: “The Garden of Adompha”, “The Demon of the Flower”, and “A Night In Malnéant”; and stories in which a modern man enters a fantasy universe from this one: “The Uncharted Isle”, “The Chain of Aforgomon”, and “The Planet of the Dead”.
The latter type of story serves as a good introduction to Smith’s horror and science fiction, for by definition it includes examples of his writing about contemporary people and settings: each story has to introduce its modern character and his life before the character enters the fantasy universe.
Clark Ashton Smith is very good at fantasy and bad, sometimes very bad, at horror and science fiction.
