Mirror of Gal

Overview

Expedition register ME-1935-S79/3923 — cross-index under slug `mirror-of-gal`.

Mirror of Gal enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

Hyperborean relic showing truth and other worlds in Clark Ashton Smith.

Period attestation: lovecraft-1930s.

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

Description

Staring too long invites replacement by reflection.

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

File under Smith artifacts unless provenance to Lovecraft letter.

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.

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