"But you are among my best students, so I will let this one slip. We wouldn't want silly scuffles to affect our grades now, would we?"

Something is glowing from the crack in his desk draw, and they all fall to their feet as a thunderous roar disrupts even the air around them, spraying dust into the air and shattering half of the window panes.

Here is a summary of the unknown thing revealed so far in the game.

The scarab takes control of people who touch it.
Those controlled chant to Nyarlathotep.
Mary is a kleptomaniac and has stollen the scarab.
Karl the janitor has worked with Professor Armitage before and has a scar to prove it.
Egyptian? Cultists are searching for the scarab.
Something explodes in Armitages office.

So, what else do we need to add to answer the opening question. What is going on with Professor Armitages shipment and what needs to happen to stop the evil? I don't think we have an answer yet but we do likely have all the characters we need.

Flashback six weeks - Alexandria Egypt

Cultists desperately search through crates bound for the States. "Where is it? We must find it!"

They then look up and see a ship leaving port. The ship is called "The Pride of Innsmouth." One Cultist holds up a crystal and looks through it at the ship. He sees an evil glow shinning from the deck.

"There!"

Five weeks later the Cultists exit a ship in Boston harbor.

Armitage's office is in shambles. Karl helps the professor to his feet and then sees to the girls. Above the spot where the professor's desk used to be, there now floats an object roughly in the shape of a mallet made of some dull metal - or is it stone? What could this be? Armitage takes a stumbling step forward but just then Mary suddenly moans and starts wailing in the strange obscene tongue of the scarab. Her left hand claws at her purse where the evil artifact hides, and her right hand shields her face in fear of the soft glow coming from the floating hammer.

At that moment, the cultists arrive at the University.

Armitage feels compelled. Against all his wishes he begins to chant along with Mary. Karl and Lulu feel it as well but resist and stagger back out of the room.

The cultists walk up the steps of Rose Hall. They are almost there...
