Physical Description: This Mythos tome takes the form of five large battered cardboard box files, containing a mixture of handwritten and typed pages, incomprehensible diagrams, and clippings from other sources. Craig Steele had attempted to create an index and summary, but the notes are still insanely chaotic.

General Content: Contains some limited insights from the "Sussex Manuscript" version of the Necronomicon, with analysis and insights focusing on the nature of Emptiness, becoming Empty, and the The Void, and some references to Yog-Sothoth, Azathoth, and Nyarlathotep where they overlap with Chandler's interest.
