You did a great job with it. I think you made a good choice in using symbology on the disk rather than the image of Cthulhu stomping around that's in the text. That would be hard to get looking right if you're not a very skilled sculptor.

My first thought when I saw this was: "Cookie!"
Sorry, that was my first thought. I guess my inner five-year-old is closer to the surface than I knew.
Nice work. How long did it take you?
In the morning, mist comes up from the sea by the cliffs beyond Kingsport. White and feathery it comes from the deep to its brothers the clouds, full of dreams of dank pastures and caves of leviathan.

If it was a cookie there is no way it would make it to the end of the scenario uneaten, then they would all be doomed, lol. Just took me a few hours spread over a week or so.

Yeah, I'm no sculptor and thought symbols were best, since Cthulhu on it would be a dead give away
