Hyperborea

Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1920-H78/2860 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `hyperborea`.

Survivors of Hyperborea disagree on weather, century, and compass bearing — agreement on dread is nearly unanimous.

Clark Ashton Smith's polar continent of Lomar, Voormithadreth, and dying civilizations.

Period attestation: lovecraft-1920s.

What sleeps is not dead; what is catalogued here may be doing neither.

Description

Eibon and the Book of Eibon originate here before ice claimed the cities.

Sensory reports conflict in detail — scale, colour, limb count — yet agree that the phenomenon offends proportion.

Olfactory notes in depositions: salt, copper, wet stone, and organic sweetness like fruit fermenting in a closed room.

Historical Record

Shared loosely with Lovecraft's prehuman earth; dates do not align—cite author.

Post-1937 pastiche and game supplements multiplied references; the archive tags those layers expanded mythos unless a primary citation is supplied.

Cross-links at dossier foot should be treated as hypotheses, not as family trees carved in stone.

Field Observations

Do not engage alone; do not accept hospitality from hosts who show windows to other eras.

Submit Form Theta-9 if conversation turns to cities remembered only in sleep.

Cross-reference before fieldwork; cite slug in all reports; do not bring back souvenirs that pulse.

Archive Notes

Cite archive slug `hyperborea` in all cross-references. Cross-reference before fieldwork; cite slug in all reports; do not bring back souvenirs that pulse.
