|translation=It appears to be made up of lines…? They’re not exactly tendrils or tentacles, they don’t grasp or reach… they just keep dividing and multiplying and combining into different patterns.
 
The lines always seem to be connected, either at the centeral root of the Pattern or by dividing off from a root line. Duplicate shapes mix and overlap and reduce by multiple divisions!
 
I am almost certain that I have seen this Pattern somewhere before. It shares some resemblance with the creatures I observed in Kharbranth, but without the body and those strange robes. Is it possibly a child or servant of theirs?
