Overview

Miskatonic seal ME-1925-C72/4120 binds this packet; duplicate citations must use slug `the-tomb-spawn`.

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

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