The disgraced professor and author of The Ancient Enemy, Dr. Timothy Flyte lost the respect of his fellow academics when he wrote The Ancient Enemy, a novel which expressed his opinion about the mass disappearances of both people and animals throughout history. Flyte's theory, that an unknown creature has consumed entire villages of people, or species of animals, is met with ridicule from his colleagues, and he is effectively drummed out of the university where he had taught.
