The Book of Eibon

Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1932-F71/1391 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `the-book-of-eibon`.

The Book of Eibon enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

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and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.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

Historical Record

Game manuals and wiki pages from 1980 onward treat the name as franchise furniture; date your citations or fail the course.

Textual History

Pages removed from bindings still stain fingers; translators work in pairs — the survivor writes footnotes.

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