A man and his wife, he is talking about how the stars are right and how they can now go to a new planet, closer to an object of worship, wife seems pleased, l am the astronomer for this bit. Next they lay in bed, wife spooning husband. I see through the eyes of the wife. He expresses interest in going to visit a planet humanity had inhabited before. Wife says “we can move up the scepter but never down,” and then something I don’t remember about ancient gods and then “oh darling the scepter will hurt you but as long as you follow the rules it won’t kill you.” I believe the scepter refers metaphorically to the solar system, then something about the wife seems to change physical presence stranger more amorphous and she whispers to her husband “besides, darling, don’t you know who I am? I am the watcher in the dark”
And that’s what I get for bloody reading Lovecraft before bed
