Something primitive and infantile, yet monstrous. Then he saw Elrich, an island, he owned and controlled, harboring creatures he'd never seen before; things so strange and ill-natured they evoked disgust within him. Abominations with the words—Magnus Teras—inscribed in their flesh. The next day, Roth acted. He told his king's…

The baroque style was established in the seventeenth century in order for the catholic church to win back the citizens who were being converted to the protestant reformation. Therefore, the church turned their artistic expression into a more extravagant, grandiose style. Viewers were now being emotionally drawn to the sensual attitudes of the churches.
