  • Prompt: Carcosa is a fictional city at the heart of the Carcosa Mythos. Origins in fiction It was first mentioned in the Ambrose Bierce short story An Inhabitant of Carcosa (first published 1886). In Bierce's story, the ancient and mysterious city is barely described and is viewed only in hindsight (after its destruction) by a character who once lived there. The city was later used more extensively in Robert W. Chambers' book The King In Yellow, though still without greatly clarifying its exact nature.

Lin Carter has used it as the name of a planet, the site of the Immemorial City. Its name may have originally been derived from the medieval city of Carcassonne in France. Description of Carcosa In The Repairer of Reputations, the following statements about Carcosa are made: there are black stars overhead; the "shadows of men's thoughts lengthen in the afternoon"; it is lit by twin suns that sink "into the lake of Hali". In the Court of the Dragon mentions the black stars hanging in a bright sky, with the wet winds off the Lake of Hali chilling the narrator's face. In The Yellow Sign the cloud waves of The Lake of Hali are also mentioned. In Litany To Hastur, Lin Carter describes Carcosa as having black domes an
