The Lords of Tindalos are from Frank Belknap Long's "Gateway to Forever (fiction)".
Description
...Monstrous shapes were now moving, with a rapidity that seemed in some quite terrible way unnatural. In aspect they were vaguely wolflike, with blazing eyes and clashing jaws. But their contours kept shifting as they advanced, as if all the evil in the universe were reshaping them, from instant to instant, to make them increasingly more frightful in their destructiveness.
— Frank Belknap Long, "Gateway to Forever (fiction)"
Strange, extradimensional beings that are perceived as a conglomeration of jagged, angular, ever-shifting distortions of space-time, somehow "wolfish" to humans in that a predatory nature is instinctively recognized in their alien forms, made up not of matter as we understand it, but instead are otherworldly presences akin to spirit.
