Proto-Shoggoth

Overview

Expedition register ME-1929-S81/3614 — cross-index under slug `proto-shoggoth`.

Proto-Shoggoth is indexed as species or servitor because bullets sometimes delay it; do not mistake delay for mastery.

Field notes on Proto-Shoggoth read like zoology until the specimen looks back and the notebook stops mid-sentence.

Photographs in the files show fog, double exposure, and emulsion scars that technicians swear were not present when the shutter fell. We keep them because fraud is easier to disprove than the thing that stood where fraud pretends to be.

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