Hurrying to capture my thoughts with ink and parchment while they are still vivid in my mind. The horror of what was just witnessed by those present is ever so slowly starting to recede into the locked corners of our conscience minds where one banishes haunting nightmares and horrid visions.
In its place our brains are instead troubled with the increasing mysteries of this place. Were we truly contacted by the Spirit of our beloved Professor? Can we trust the messages divulged from beyond? I fear we have gained more quarries and less knowledge than we had hoped.
I am also still reeling from the memory of the grotesque THING that attacked our group at the close of our seance. How dare it usurp the body of one I hold so dear! My stomach still retches at the recalling of this offence! No wonder I was not as quick and decisive in my manner as I struggled to act and save our group! Thankfully I soon gathered my faculties and dealt the disgusting creature a gallant blow! After my gigantic effort of bringing the monster to his knees, the rest of the group could then take him down. Lyra is a master of the whip and lashed him mercilessly! Parod swung his Great Ax to shred it to pieces! And our lovely hostess Kendra finally silenced the beast and sent him scurrying to hell! Marcus is proving to be all bravado and very little skill of any kind in battle. At one point, he was even questioning his own survival! How he has lasted so long in this unforgiving area is beyond even my enlarged imagination!
But it is “Little Min” who continues to trouble me. He astounds me with his use of magic during our ferocious encounters. He uses his magic to coax the very air to give up her secrets and reveal all the powers that are shrouded within her arms. His senses always seem heightened and on alert at the smallest sound or faintest tingle in the atmosphere. I shall seek to find a quiet time to speak to “Little Min” about his strange and foreign ways. Who knows? He might actually gain admittance in The Book of Folklore of the Inner Sea.
I must adjourn for now, as the others are waiting upon me to continue in our search for answers.
