You head back to Mrs. Burnish's and she grumblingly ("Well, guess he'd be too busy wasting his time on those dusty books of him to take you in person, eh?") takes you to a small room in an under ground floor where Ayers's stuff is stored, in half a dozen big cardboards boxes with his name written on, scattered among dozen more boxes with other names on them. She leaves the door open and says: "Good work. Please warn me when you leave, I need to close it again", before leaving.
The boxes are full of books and notes and folders - quite simply, kilograms and kilograms of paper. A quick survey of the books reveal no occult or strange stuff, or at least, nothing that one wouldn't be able to find on any university library. Apart from that, there are lesson notes, personal notes, letters, half-finished scientific papers, and other stuff. You realize you once again have long hours of searching and sifting ahead of you, and with a long sigh of resignation, you get down to it. Christopher looks in depth into the books and the academic material, while Holly looks at his letters and Clarence searches through his personal notes and notebooks.
It takes you more or less three hours to complete your work.
Holly discovers that, unsurprisingly, Ayers had epistolary exchanges with many History professors inside and outside the country. Most of them looks absolutely ordinary, but two letters manage to catch your attention, firstly because of their content, but also because they seem to be part of a much longer correspondence, and the other letters appear to be missing. They were sent from a Professor Bartolo Acuna. Yet more informations on the matter seems to emerge from some notes discovered by Clarence on a worn-out blue notebook.
Clarence also discovers the paperwork related to the trip to Ethiopia. The man seemed truly headed for Ethiopia, or otherwise he spent incredible effort and time to fake a significant amount of paperwork. According to what you find, Ayers left Los Angeles in late June 1924, that is, some weeks before the dramatic incident at the farm.
Christopher's analysis of Ayers's deranged work shows a man truly believing in the existence in this universe of all the pagan Gods and entities he speaks about. His work seems to be mainly focused on the old God known as Gol-Goroth, but it later seems to expand to include a second entity identified as The Liar, or The Liar from Beyond.
