The University was in a bad way after the Terror. Many of the faculty and students dead, others left for new 'challenges'... the parent site in Arkham sent a few of its' faculty to Newhaven to see what could be saved.
Enter Dr Carmody. His main interest was finding the works of an ancestor, a famous occultist and noted explorer, whose collection was rumoured to be in Newhaven.
 |
| The attic of the main building held many treasures... |
 |
| Including the bound notebook of his ancestor! |
 |
| The notes were in code... but it was the family code! Carmody had no problems there! |
 |
| But some of the writings... references to the bible and other religious works woven in amongst tales of forgotten cities... of Kadesh in the Cold Wastes and of a city on the frozen continent of Antarctica! Further, the text gave the location of the lost city... |
Carmody lost no time. He gained the support and finances to mount an expedition...
Note: The book is pretty much genuine. I like old books and one day bought a box of the things at an auction... Titled 'Notes on the Old Testament', signed Edmund Kell, 1821, York...
