'I shiver at the mysteries the past may conceal, and trembled at the menaces the future may bring forth.'Nathaniel Wingate Peaslee is perfectly normal, ordinary, albeit very smart man who works at Miskatonic University. His origins are normal and he tries hard to get that fact through. It is important because something horrible has happened to him. For five years Nathaniel's mind has seemed to be gone and something else was there. The Nathaniel of those five years acted strange, knew foreign and dead languages, travelled to weirdest places, researched the strangest things and talked to various cult leaders. Until one day the real man came back.
