So what is the business with not explaining anything at the game end? :(

There's little reason for the game to attempt to express the unknowable beyond the portal, the Lovecraftian style of storytelling is to leave much of the supernatural to your imagination, which is arguably better at expressing unspeakable impossible horrors or wonders than actually showing it to you.

If we know that Alexander is a being from another dimension, what point would it be to give him a different species name, or some name to his home dimension? Does it satisfy the curiosity to be told he's from some place called Bleensode, instead of 'somewhere else'?

Then again, you could play The Void and presume that you're continuing from the perspective of Daniel if you like.
