I would like to share some thoughts with you all.

I was one of the people involved in the fight last night. I apologise for writing in blood before, but I didn’t exactly have the time to bother with a pencil.

I would like to speak to the [There’s a pause here, as he considers what to write.] young man who used the large sword last night. I noticed a flash of light when you struck, and I want to know more about it, and the weapon in general.

Some time back, I visited the maze with someone. We saw the gazebo right after the seal was strengthened, and at that time I also noticed a bright light there, flashing whenever something tried to form inside like it was fighting to stop it.

I also realise those of you who arrived late enough to see the large dog at work might see my message and dismiss it. I wrote that message after a clear observation of the first possession target being burned. The entity inside him escaped and emerged, only to slip inside of the second target as he accidentally breathed it in. Fire alone did not work.

Speaking of which, I hope those who were there got their burns seen to properly. The corrosive cloud it used was able to eat through steel. As I don’t know whether it is acidic in nature or not, I can only suggest washing anything that came in contact with it with plenty of water.

Other things I noted were a remarkable regenerative ability. Cutting off the head of its host probably won't stop it, so don't be fooled into a false sense of security if you try it.

However, I did notice a degree of degeneration over the course of the last fight. The body of the man who was possessed started to look an awful lot like his Lordship's eyeless servants, or those other servants that were wandering the halls some nights ago.

On a related note, I hope you all saw the earlier note about the eyeless servants. If you haven't, read it.

Anyone that gets the urge to wander into the stone maze branching off from the garden is to consult these notebooks first.

The gazebo inside of the maze is to be avoided at all costs. If anyone or anything tempts you to go into it, do not listen to them. If you learn of someone planning to go near it, stop them.

One misstep in that place could cost us everything.

Those with anything else to contribute regarding the maze may do so here, if they so wish.



Also, if anyone knows a bloke called Estinien, I have a message for him. Tell him his little green girl is safe.

[It's a short message he jots down in the books, in the same cursive hand he is probably by now known to use in his writing.]

There are wraiths outside tonight. As I recall, they'll follow you if you're alone, so if you must come outside, travel in pairs if you can. If you can't, I've just been told having a source of light will cause them to hesitate, but it won't keep you entirely safe from them.

Be mindful of your surroundings.
