In fact, the Yellow Book is a re-transcription of a much older work, the play "The King in Yellow", which is about a visitor from the stars who
attends a royal masque. When asked to remove his mask, he declares "I wear no mask." The royalty panics, and thus ends act 1.
Act 2 has never been revealed even covertly to the public, because those who begin reading it cannot stop, and those who have read it have gone too
mad to distribute the knowledge in any way besides either urging people to read it... or performing it.
EBE-2 was actually a maddened descendant of the eponymous King who, like all others of her race, had to read the original source material for the
play. She was concerned for all of us, and tried to retranscribe the story in a way that wouldn't drive us mad. It didn't work, to say the
least.
The disparate stories have been spread in order to prevent us from learning the truth. A group of stories about the play was even released in the
late 19th century in order to create plausible deniability and send the interest in such matters where it didn't belong, and thus where the
authorities wanted it to be.
