Septimius Felton

Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1919-S56/6807 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `septimius-felton`.

Septimius Felton enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

We would delete Septimius Felton if deletion worked; instead we classify, cross-link, and warn.

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and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.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.

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

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