Monster of the Day: Wyords

Source:  The Book That Shall Not Be Edited
Location:  Dusty bookself
Threat Assessment:  4.  A memetic plague.  Wyords look like a passage in any book.  The only clue is that while a Wyord may change the words that make it up it always starts with "In memory of lost Carcosa and the twin jewels Nima and Lamas..."  If you read the entire Wyord you will be infected.  Slowly the wyord will subvert memories and thoughts into more wyords leaving the sufferer babbling occasionally repeating "In memory of lost Carcosa and the twin jewels Nima and Lamas..."
Limitations:  A Wyord can be burned.  Drugs and alcohol can slow the infection of a Wyord.
