Concepts & Phenomena

Through Obscure Glass

Through Obscure Glass — a recurring phenomenon; understanding does not restore sanity. Register ME-1923-I36/2869.

Overview

Expedition register ME-1923-I36/2869 — cross-index under slug `through-obscure-glass`.

Through Obscure Glass enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.

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and the game industry) enlarged the name without enlarging the proof; we mark those layers explicitly so students do not cite a 1981 module as 1928 fact.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