- First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 80
He enters the account through the traces scholars leave behind: a name attached to an old question and the patient labor of historical inquiry. There is a sense of distant archives and careful attention around him, though the text offers no glimpse of the man himself.

M. d'Avezac appears as a scholar whose work touched on the story of Prester John. The book gives no account of his personal life, relationships, or development, presenting him only through this thread of scholarship. His presence is that of a later researcher looking back toward a legend that had long outlived its origins.
Description
The text provides no physical description of M. d'Avezac, so his appearance cannot be specified. His age, build, complexion, hair, eyes, and facial features are all left unstated. No particular clothing, accessories, or distinguishing marks are recorded.
