And so the dread pirate Cthulhu let him live, and every night said "Goodnight Magus, sleep well, I'd most like to kill you in the morning." For three years he said this, every night. Eventually, the dread pirate Cthulhu had gotten so fat and satiated by the souls of mere mortals, that he decided to retire. He then let Magus in on his secret. he was not the real dread pirate Cthulhu, and nor was the world-eating demon spawn who came before him. So he proposed to Magus that he become the next dread pirate Cthulhu, and Magus accepted. Next time they were out devouring the psyches of the innocent, they took on a new crew, and the old dread pirate Cthulhu stuck around, always calling Magus Cthulhu, until the crew was convinced of it. And so, Magus has left us to be the next dread pirate Cthulhu.
