Midway through his sophomore year, however, Donnie had a change of heart. Donnie fell in love with the humanities: art, music, history, and literatire.

Donnie dreamed of traveling to Egypt and Greece and investigating the ruins there. But then, fate took its turn. Eleanor, pregnant with the couple's child, died in a car accident on the way to the hospital. Despondent, Donnie took the loss very hard. His work suffered and he took to the bottle.

He took it back to his dingy apartment and spent hours with a German - English dictionary, trying to decipher this strange book's contents. What Donnie uncovered was something fantastic and hard to believe. Donnie understood this work to be of the occult, of strange groups that worshipped heretical deities unknown to modern man.

Lawrence Bailey was, like Donnie, a patron of the arts and interested in languages and history. Lawrence collected a great number of books and artifacts during his lifetime and Donnie has spent a great deal of time perusing the old books and cataloging the treasures left behind.
