Well! I have poured myself a glass of wine to celebrate, for I have completed my work here, and sooner than I thought I would.

I believe I fell asleep again with the pen in my hand. Oh, how Wendell would mock me if he knew! And yet I have so many ideas for the papers I will write about Dark Faerie, as I have decided to call it - indeed, I could write a book on the subject!

The next morning I awoke to the certainty that something terrible had happened. It was an odd feeling, like waking from a nightmare, without the relief that consciousness ordinarily supplies.

Ah, I am weary. Ordinarily my field studies give me plenty of cause to go wandering in various forms of wilderness, but I have not had much reason for exercise since our stay in Austria. Only a short entry this time, and then sleep.

I'm unsure how much time has elapsed. I came back to myself just now, the pen still in my hand. I had descended into a blank haze, during which I simply stared out the window.

I must write it down. For it is in writing that will discover a way out.
A door within the story. There is one. It can not end here.
Yet some stories do.

I've not had much time for journalling these past few days. Now it is dark, and I am alone here by the fire in our bedroom.

It has been too long since I've written. Several times after our journey to the yew grove I have picked up my journal, readied my pen, and then simply stared at the blank page.

The place once known as the King's Grove is located in the forested hillside behind the castle, accessed by a lantern-lined path, one of many that winds through the royal forest.

A new year. Not that one would know it in Faerie - the Folk pay no mind to human calendars, or, in some cases, to the concept of linear time. It is odd.

Orga the cat came charging onto the path. As she came, she seemed to grow. And grow, until she was a monstrous shadow, a shadow with only the barest of shapes, that being mostly mouth, yawning with fangs. "The Beast of the Elderwood!" someone shrieked.
