Summary
At the lowest Arthur has ever been, Kayne offers a deal: John will be freed from the King in Yellow, but he will kill someone that Arthur loves.
It's not a difficult choice at all.Both men are transported to a lighthouse near Innsmouth, Massachusetts. Bizarrely, they seem to have gotten something else out of the deal: John has a body, and learning to cope with his newfound corporeality is more of a challenge than he realized. They try to find some small comfort with one another, even as the shadows of Innsmouth grow around them - until an impossible face comes to town and shatters their illusions of safety.

Summary
Arthur Lester awakes terribly injured, being tended to by a so-called nurse named 'John Doe'. His horrific, oddly realistic nightmares plague him every night, just as his memory loss plagues him every day. Underneath the notice of his nurse, he begins an investigation to find his missing memories.
Having nearly lost Arthur, John contents himself with simply allowing Arthur the space and time to recover. For the first time, he has new companions to help him: Bella, Parker, and little Faroe. However, an old enemy still lingers out in the cosmos, one who earnestly wants to become whole again.
