Description

Several accounts mention a pressure change before sighting, as though the air admitted something larger than the room.

Burn nothing found pulsing; catalogue first, then burn if protocol allows.

If dreams arrive with the weight of memory for places never visited, terminate contact.

If the name appears in dreams three nights running, withdraw from the case and request audit.
