Quest for Knowledge and the Curse of Mortality (Backstory)

by Lawrence Perry Jr.

I'll tidy this up later, but this is my backstory in a nutshell:

bookseller in new york
not a large shop, just a modest but successful shop
member of a local sci-fi book club.

interst there is that he will feel short-changed if there isn't more to life than what he's experiencing and knows of so far

book club meets twice a month in the winter, monthly the rest of the year

guy in a beat up yellow jacket shows up after a few sessions

guy is mostly quiet

guy talks in stifled sentences - not conversational english or anything, it's almost like he's repeating prose

guy shows up to 2 or 3 sessions before he shows up at the bookshop

guy approaches the counter, puts a worn yellow leather book on it

begins to mumble and the book opens

irridescent purple comes out from between the pages

i go unconscious

next thing i know, he's gone and there is this page on the counter

it's not written in english or latin, fuck if i know

i can't read it but an idea becomes understood in my brain, like - I just know the thing.

the idea is "knowledge in arkham - book - seek church" and an image of the symbol of the church of contemplation

page is now blank but i carry it with me

comes to arkham and is asking around about the church

cops aren't helpful

public records are scant

asks other church elders and finally has a lead on the former location

finds the symbol on the rubble but no book inside

while asking a church official just down the road, they mention another group asking about it recently and describe Bernadette

The major events and journals in Lawrence's history, from the beginning to today.
