"It wasn't much, as sculptures go. ... A small pyramid of stone, that was all -- jutting from a sandy slope, where sparse grasses swayed to restless ocean breezes.
...
It's only the tip of something much, much bigger. Imagine it doesn't end just below the ground, but keeps slanting down, down, ever downward. . .
...
Imagine the Earth surrounds a solid pyramid, with four faces and four vertices, whose tips just pierce the surface. . ."
