The letter literally makes our hero jump from his comfortable armchair. "Maybe the old man is right!" he exclaims.
Then he heads towards his desk full of disorganized papers and, rummaging excitedly, finds what he is looking for.
"Here they are..." he says. "My notes on the Goddess Lillith..."
From a quick glance at the collected notes and reads: "Mysterious and bloody cults were linked to the Goddess Lillith. The goddess of Death and Violence. It is said that a sect has survived over the centuries to fuel this cult in anticipation of the Great Advent."
The notes continue:
"The Great Advent that will bring the new Messiah to the world, the one who will revolutionize all thoughts, who will penetrate the hearts and minds of people with extreme ease. This event has been awaited since the dawn of time."
The notes then conclude:
"And they look for the small simulacrum of the Goddess, a simulacrum that will give them the possibility of contacting the Great Advent..."
"There is no time to waste, if Berkey has truly discovered the tomb then we are very close to the solution to Lillith's enigma... and if Berkey is a stone's throw from the solution so is the infamous Sect... I have to leave... !"
