GASTER IS THE KING IN YELLOW

LISTEN, I CAN'T EXPLAIN WHY ITS TRUE, BUT I KNOW IT IS!

THERE ARE SIMPLY TOO MANY SIMILARITIES FOR IT TO NOT BE THE CASE!

EACH OF THEIR NAMES ARE UNSPEAKABLE, WITH THEIR TRUE NATURE BEING FUNDAMENTALLY UNKNOWABLE

THEIR TRUE NAMES DESPITE NEVER BEING CANONISED ARE VERY SIMILAR, BOTH [HASTUR](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hastur) AND GASTER

IT IS IMPLIED THEY EACH HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CREATION OF THEIR RESPECTIVE WORLDS, OR AT THE VERY LEAST TIE THEM TOGETHER IN SOME ABSTRACT LOVECRAFTIAN WAY

BOTH WORKS FOCUS ON A META NARRATIVE ABOUT THE LINE BETWEEN FICTION AND REALITY

THEY EACH APPEAR BEFORE YOU WHETHER YOU'RE LOOKING OR NOT, TAKING ON VARIOUS FORMS FROM OBJECTS TO PEOPLE, LAKES TO GODS

EACH OF THEIR BEINGS ARE TIED WITH FATE AND THE INVOCATION OF INTERDIMENSIONAL BEINGS AT OTHERS' EXPENSES

**THE VERY KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR BEING BRINGS PEOPLE TO INSANITY**

YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME I'M NOT CRAZY. I'M NOT CRAZY. I'M NOT CRAZY.

"**The Unspeakable One**, **The King in Yellow**, **Him Who Is Not to be Named**"

"**There is a whole secret cult of evil men (a man of your mystical erudition will understand me when I link them with Hastur and the Yellow Sign) devoted to the purpose of tracking them down and injuring them on behalf of monstrous powers from other dimensions.**"

**"one truth the human soul finds hardest of all to learn: that it has nothing to fear. It can never be made to see that nothing can really harm it."**

**"It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Living God"**
