[Mkguild] Cthulhu in Metamor

To quote from a LONG ago e-mail from Raven Blackmane:

"Well, as noted, the entire ridge houses a labyrinth of old passages of
the Keep itself, long abandoned and forgotten by most people. There are
some passages that reach far, far beyond the ridge and into the
surrounding valley; Matty's characters used one of these to get away
from Metamor during the Winter Assault. It's possible that the cultists
might have found an entrance to the labyrinth and made use of it, though
you'd have to come up with an explanation for why Kyia didn't know they
were there. We know that magic exists that can render part of the Keep
"dead"; perhaps the gods and daedra struck a bargain with Kyia in the
distant past to turn part of her structure into a prison for the Titan.
This area might have been rendered "dead" specifically to prevent anyone
from using space-warping magic (like the Key) to access it. After ten
thousand years, though, perhaps a hole has opened up somewhere -- or the
cultists excavated until they were able to open up a hole for themselves."

So, for Raven, anyway, the idea is fine.  It was discussed here last fall,
and nobody had an issue.

But, times change...

Therefore, until this is resolved to the Metamor writers satisfaction, I
will cease working on Yvarra.

NOTE: Why am I saying this?  A individual replied to me privately expressing
grave concerns about made superbeings imprisoned under the keep.  It is not
quoted here, because it was a message privately to me.
