Books & artifactsThe jade amulet
The jade amulet is the stolen grave-object at the center of The Hound. Carved as a crouching winged, partly canine figure, it is recognized by the narrators through a passage in the Necronomicon. Its removal, display, theft and eventual return to the coffin organize the story’s chain of supernatural pursuit. The text supplies a precise visual description while leaving the exact mechanics of its power uncertain.
