Kadatheron

Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1920-X37/3864 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `kadatheron`.

Kadatheron cannot be visited like Providence; it is approached through texts, dreams, and disasters that leave coordinates in dispute.

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

Lovecraft's own prose — when he is the witness — should be read in the /library before this summary is trusted. Posthumous expansion (Derleth, Smith, Campbell, Wilson, and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.

The Library holds primary text; this dossier holds orientation — never the reverse.

Description

The thing called Kadatheron left no consistent footprint; it left expectations broken in the nervous system.

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

Scale estimates in the files range from human to architectural, which usually means the observer was not the unit of measure.

Earliest stack mention is a photocopy of a photocopy of Latin marginalia — chain of custody unsuitable for court, sufficient for caution.

Field Observations

Approach by daylight with two vehicles; refuse wells that taste of iron.

If livestock refuse a field, the field has already refused livestock.

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