Eslud Esmad

"Eslud Esmad" is a term used by the Ebrugh to describe a threat they faced. It is unkown whether it refers to an entity, several entities, an event or a natural phenomenon. Several possible instances of Eslud Esmad have been reported by individuals, though even those do not shed more light on this strange matter.
==Appearance & Properties==
Eslud Esmad can ssemingly not be described by words and images. A painter was able to look at it whithout getting mad due to hallucinogenic substances he too previous to his encounter. Another sighting was reported by a French girl, though she as well did only refer to it with nebulous words. Eslud Esmad does instill primal terror, dread and madness into all that witness it. Encounters with the sole idea of Eslud Esmad lead to thoughts about it and cause it to spread and grow on a conceptual level.
==Reports of "Eslud Esmad"==
Eslud Esmad has psooibly been encountered by several individuals and is mentioned in some Ebrugh Reports.
===="The Hare"====
A painter encountered a vision of a Hare on a mountaintop and painted the entity in Ebrugh Report 11. The paintings of the entity then started to show instances of the Hare as well, approaching from the distance, driving people mad and in some cases lulling people into a trance. In the end, the paintings of the Hare were burned, possibly erasing the threat. It is unclear whether the paintings were an instance of Eslud Esmad itself or if the idea of the Hare had started emulating Eslud Esmads properties.
===="The Things"====
Another encounter with Eslud Esmad was documented in Ebrugh Report 21 by a French girl called Eloise. Her boyfriend Gabriel had started to exhibit night terrors and finally died in his sleep. When she looked for an explanaiton about his death, Eloise find a store where she encounters a strange man who tells her about "Things" that will smell her fear and hunt her down:
* “You can run away. Run and hide. You will not escape from the things. The fear of me and this shop is nothing compared to the ancient terror that burns inside you. That causes you to reek. If you know about them, it starts. The fear of the things. And if it grows rampant inside your heart, it will come. Closer and closer. At first, you do not feel it. At first, it is just a faint suspicion. A stupid tale. A crazy story. But then, with doubt, with terror… it comes… With those thoughts: What, if it is real after all?”
Subsequently, she starts having episodes of increasing paranoia and night terrors. It is implied that Eloise is taken or killed by the "Things" one night.

*It is unclear whether the currently documented instances of Eslud Esmad encounters have been direct or only by proxy.
