The analyses of a text #1
The protagonist was going after a werewolf when it entered a magic portal.
I felt the force of the silent explosion, followed by the implosion and the small series of shock waves. I lay there thinking nasty thoughts until the turmoil and ceased; then I rose and retrieved my weapon.
The night was normal about me once again. Starlight. The wind in the pines. There was no need for me to turn, though I did, to know that the the thing toward which I had been racing but moments before was now gone, without leaving any sign that it had been there, bright doorway to another place.
["Blood of Amber" of The Great Book of Amber by Roger Zelazny]
I'd like to know if "and" is typo of "had."
And I'd like to know if "which" is implied before "moments before."
And I'd like to know "without leaving" is implied before "bright doorway to another place."
Thank you in advance for your help.

park sang joonSo I was wondering where I can find the main verb of "that" clauseI'm not sure what you mean now. Within the 'that' clause, the subject is 'thing' and the verb is 'was gone'. The 'that' clause (' that the the thing...another place') is a complement of 'to know'.
