Day 8: Ornate

[Transcript:]

July 27th, 1962

Dear Journal,

I knew it.  I knew the doc was in on this whole mess.  Not just in on it, he’s been pulling his strings the whole time.

The patients.  They haven’t been running away.  Not even just disappearing.  Monroe is doing something to them, I know he is.

The archives didn’t have anything new to find.  A lot of files were either missing or redacted, and I think whoever’s working for the doctor is starting the process all over again.  Tommy’s files are almost unreadable, everything’s redacted.

I had a feeling I knew where I’d find the missing documents, and I was right.  In a locked drawer, in Monroe’s office.  Detailed patient records, ones that painted a nasty picture.

From what I can gather, Teddy and Piper Conway were the twin children of one of the rich townies.  Teddy was half blind, weak in the legs, and described as “Melancholic.”  Piper, on the other hand, towered over her peers, spoke almost never, and displayed a history of aggressive behavior, especially toward her brother.  They were admitted together after a fight, seemingly pitted against each other as part of Monroe’s treatment, sedated, lobotomized, and then vanished.  The only other note I could find was that their father refused to take them back after the procedure, and “gave them over willingly.”

What that means, I have no idea.  Nothing good, that’s for certain.  And now it’s happening all over again.  These people need our help, and what?  They get treated worse than dogs and who knows what else now?

There was… something else in the drawer too.  Something I can’t quite explain.

I thought it was a mirror.  One of those decorative, fancy desk mirrors.  I wasn’t sure what it was doing in a drawer until I touched it.  I heard something.  Someone.  A whisper, a tiny one, and it said “Help me.”

I nearly dropped it.  I stashed it in my bag with the documents.  I need to show Terri later, so we can figure out what the hell is going on in this place.

Signed Sam

APOCTOBER DAY 1

Quicksilver

I found this creature, huddled in the corner of an abandoned apartment. After taking samples my partner filled me in on the fact that this creature is made of liquid mercury.

It was constantly changing it’s appearance, eyes, ears, mouths and noses spawning and melting back into it’s skin, the features swimming across it’s body like fish. Strangely, it was always covering it’s face. Actually, it was quite shy, and didn’t speak much. Any words it did say were very few, and overlapping voices made it hard to discern. Though, it was non violent, which is a relief.

Alice’s Note:

These documented entries belong to Professor Edgar Allan Poe, a psycho-voyager from America, a researcher tied to the W.D.A. (Wayfairing Dreamers of America), and a dear friend of my caretaker and teacher, Doctor Lewis Carroll. Ever since Dr. Carrol disappeared fifteen years ago, Professor Poe has isolated himself out of paranoia and fear for something… I came to acquire his journal today, right after he went missing. Me and Tempus found his journal concealed beneath the figurehead of Athena, revealing the contents seen above. Tempus mentions that these Mercurian Abstracts are ancient ancestors of figments associated with time management and chronology like him.

I went more whimsical with a blue ringed octopus girl and a pumpkin creature (who I was originally going to make a bit of a more mature illustration). I might be able to do more horror next time; I'm just trying to have fun right now.

APOCTOBER 2023 DAY 3 - MARROW

Marrow, Marowak - sounds similar and is related to bones. And one Marowak most of us know is the ghost from Lavender Town. Adds to the Spooky Month for sure...

[void-ink-studios]

I've returned with proof. Proof of the rot, the rot that's scourged this town for over 150 years.

3 tragedies. 3 "accidents." None of them are accidents. All were sacrifices to feed the rot, feed the monsters. 31 monsters, to be exact. And those are only ones who have documentation.

I've fought for too long and lived too hard for the bastards watching to get away with it all. So here it all is. Laid out for you all to witness, although perhaps not in the correct order. I need to scramble the documents so they can't determine it's me.

Behold the monsters of New Heart.

Remember to stay diligent. Trust no one. They have eyes everywhere.
