Curious thing is that the only one who can destroy Azathoth (as he is in the Lovecraftian mythos) is God. In the case of the DCU, that is The Presence. Or, because all of reality is said to just be a unwitting dream of the sleeping Azathoth, perhaps his son Nyarlatothep believes that by corrupting the multiverse he can “take over” his fathers mind and thus usurp his power?
Azathoth, also known as the Blind Idiot God, is the Primordial embodiment of Chaos and the “God” of the Lovecraftian mythos. He’s been written about since the 1920s. Hes called the Blind Idiot God because he is omniscient, but simultaneously unaware of, the fact that he not just created reality but IS reality. Azathoth is asleep, and reality is what he is dreaming. If Azathoth awakens, reality ends along with his dream, and all returns to being Azathoth. In a word, Azathoth awakening is Lovecraft’s version of Ragnarok, except theres no remaking of the multiverse. It just ends.
He’s also Nyarlothotep’s father, who he dreamt that he spawned. Essentially, Nyar is Azathoth’s emissary in reality, which is why Nyar is the embodiment of Chaos and Entropy in reality. It’s also why he corrupts lesser beings in the dream, and why he is so opposed to the concept of Order. This is because he is Azathoth’s will personified in his own dream.
Long story short, the relationship between Azathoth and Nyarlothotep is something like the relationship between the Abrahamic God and Christ, though without a Holy Spirit analog. Fully Primordial chaotic manifestation, fully a entity distinct from reality.
As far as the Presence (a original of the DCU, the almighty God of the DCU Multiverse), in this context Azathoth would have dreamed the Presense as the opposite of him, and thus the only one that can kill him or he it. I recommend lokking at the Lovecraftian wikia for more info.
It fells like the master is stalling for no reason. Out of the sudden he wants to perform a ceremony? For whom? For himself? For his nightgaunts? Whatever he wants to do with Diana … for him she is just a strategic asset, an important puzzle piece, just like Poison Ivy or Raven. Maybe a little more important for his master plan, but still … I didn’t figured him as the ceremony type … more like the lets-just-do-this type.
If Pharaoh keeps up this pace, we will see the master finally starting to corrupt Diana in the last 50 pages or so right as he gets his ass kicked and Diana gets out if this “unharmed”.

Hope the ending sees WW in a perpetual state of preggo gangbang by the big bad lust god.
So…daddy issues, huh?

some of us don’t know who the Azathoth is? Google didn’t help.
Anyone care to explain more?

Real question can nyarlothotep beat spongebob squarepants?
Of course not. Spongebob practices karate.
Not corrupting her right away? I have a feeling that’s gonna cost him in the future.

I can’t wait to see what WW’s gonna look like once she’s fully corrupted.
She’s never going to be corrupted….
