This particular ‘elder god’ is more of a mantle, you see. This entity does wield great powers, but is also beholden to a horrible and cursed collection of duties.
During the summoning, they accidentally, somehow, kill this elder god; due to the nature of the summoning they must now assume his mantle and fulfill his obligations, with all that entails, lest the cosmos fall.
A Satan Clause, if you will.
