“They say foul beings of Old Times still lurk In dark forgotten
corners of the world, And Gates still gape to loose, on certain
nights, Shapes pent in Hell."
The Watkins family simply bred curious people. The family remained
in Chapel Hill long after Charlie was carted off to Arkham
Sanitorium and became no-nonsense stalwarts of the town. Charlie's
great grandson, Thomas, was equally caught up in lore and mythos of
the "Great Ones". Whilst the rebellious black sheep of the family,
he remained extremely scholarly and was often caught nose deep in
library books, consuming as much as he could of the Lore. He often
traveled to the Miskatonic University Library and the Arkham Public
Library, institutions his gradfather would visit very regularly
decades before him.
His reading list was clearly focused around recent lore and
sightings of Great Ones, as his recent lending record
suggests...
