The Road to the Great Maze:

"The key to succeeding is not to show weakness" - Matthieu Silverstone

I had always taken Uncle Matthieu's word above the rest. I wish he was still around to see my fulfill the King's duty. Well, he always hated the king so maybe he wouldn't be that proud but I am actually being proactive and trying to build my legacy as a Silverstone. Life would be so much easier if I was a martyr of war like Charles. Father always preferred him. Perks of being the younger brother I guess. I swear his nose was always brown though. Not that it mattered, I was always closer to my Uncle. He was there for me during my struggles, during my sleepless slumber and night terrors of that day.

When the wind shot through my hair as I sailed across the ocean towards my mission I felt a sense of purpose. I almost forgot about my fear of death (unfortunately that did not last long) and felt alive. I could not tell if my lack of sleep was a result of excitement or paranoia but regardless my mind was ready. When we landed I paid the crew in silver and proceeded to the Fat King's royal halls.

While he explained the mission to myself and the other heroes in attendance I found myself bouncing in and out of focus with a multitude of thoughts in my head. I remember an arrogant fellow questioning the need for all of us. Other heroes struck me as dark. I guess this was normal, I had never been a great fighter due to the fact that my mind wandered. My Uncle attempted to teach me to harness my strong mind and explained that it would allow me to become an even better fighter but it was something I struggled with. Life is a very confusing thing I have found. Well Death perhaps is even more confusing. Then there was this talk of a Magician. That got me thinking about magic. I have seen a dwarf disappear but that was all slight of hand (I think) those magic actually exist. I am off topic.

The mission is that of the scouting variety. I prefer this as I am not too confident on my fighting skills yet. The oddest thing happened though I was heading out of the castle towards the entrance. I noticed a man of similar stature to that of my uncle. I would of sworn it was him had I not watched him die 2 years prior. Probably just a coincidence as if this magician really knew my story it would not be my uncle being shown.

I was the second to arrive at the meeting place. The arrogant hero was the only other who had arrived and we exchanged some friendly banter. Well I thought it was friendly, he seemed a bit on the aggressive side. He explained how he had already cleared the labyrinth once which I guess explains his hostility. I'd be pretty pissed too if I had to clean up a mess for a second time. I did not reveal much about my past to him just my family history and legacy. I guess all the good stuff. My dark past will be exactly what it should be... in the past. Maybe I will entrust the truth with some people later on but for know you are my only confidant.

Someone is approaching I will wrap this entry up and introduce myself.

Forever L&W

Forgive me for my harsh tone to the newcomers my dear but these are not the heroes I expected to join me on this scouting mission. We have a washed up has been, a women, a child, and a half-wit. It is frustrating because this is what I am being compared to. I am a Silverstone God Damnit! I deserve to be with fellow warriors not a mash up group for a children's fable.

The Child, Maria her name is I believe is someone I am interested in. She does not seem to be around here which questions where exactly she calls home. Her entrance into the realm was sudden as if she came from a place that we could not see. I will have to inquire her about her past when we become more acquainted. I do not think I made the best first impression. As you know I do not take well to that I do not know. Knowledge is key.

The Women, Airlea her name is not someone that I find interesting. She feels the need to prove that she is as good as man but such an idea will never be the case. I apologize if this offends you my dear but there are tasks for men and tasks for women. This is how it has always been. I assume she will attempt to use her beauty to manipulate the weaker males but unfortunately for her my heart has always been taken. I will protect her as my Uncle taught me to never let harm come to a women but that will be my only association with her. I hope I am more successful this time...

As more and more heroes continued to enter the entrance to the labyrinth the more and more I wonder what exactly I have gotten myself into. Why would the Fat King send so many people on a simple scouting mission. I had not paid much attention to his instructions but I do remember the part about his soldiers not coming out.

What are we up against I wonder. What kind of powers does this Willis have in store. What are the limits to his power. Could he have the power to, no he couldn't, it is not possible, but if it was... oh if it was we could once again be together.

After your death I was heartbroken I could barely stomach food. My Uncle told me that if our love was true we would be reunited one way or another. I am still not sure today I believe him as it could just be a coping mechanism for his wife running off on him but... if it is true. Maybe this is our chance...

I have gotten off topic as usual. Urk seems to be a man of wisdom but a man of little words, maybe that will make him tolerable. Dern seems like a respectable warrior like myself. Andrael will probably get to convert me to some hosh posh religion. How could a god let me lose the love of my life before I told her how I felt. Pai C hen is yet another person I feel is out of place on this mission of heroes. Arimnestos reminds me of the pompous fool but hopefully will not be as agitating. Ajax is okay, though my curious is peeked with his foreign tongue. And finally we got the giant. Even though similar to a few of the others I am worried about his origin and his reason for being here I will except his with open arms if he is able to assist me in this mission.

He is a man of strength, I am a man of cunning together we would be unstoppable.

"Let a man prove his worth. Do not jump to conclusions, a man's true worth will be shown at the time of greatest adversity." - Blare Gorgin

My closest childhood friend told me this when I had threatened to run away for some childish reason. Family life was rough with Charles showing signs of becoming a great warrior and the pressure of being a Silverstone was really starting to get to me. The pinnacle of this incident was reached when Charles, five years my junior, beat me in a wooden sword duel, watched by many of my friends as well as Father. I hated Charles after that moment considered to kill him in his sleep but Blare was there to calm me down. Charles was a victim as well. Father obsessed after him fulfilling his legacy and following in his footsteps and it ended up getting him killed. My biggest regret in life was never getting closer to Charles. Unlike Father he tried opening up to me but I never wanted to let him.

Blare's story, on the other hand, ended up rather ironic. Beheaded for deserting the City Guard. Maybe that is why he did not want me to take revenge on my brother. He was simply put a coward. No, he was right, nothing good has ever come from petty revenge. He was my closest friend and it is unfortunate the fate that was bestowed upon him. The more and more I write this journal the more and more I realize the amount of death I have been dealt in my life. I guess it is fortunate that I am still here, but there are days that I feel as if I was the unlucky one.

Atleast Mother is still living. I have always been a Momma's boy. Not that Father gave me much choice but Mother, like Uncle actually understood me. She was very distraught when I told her that I was going to take up the Fat King's mission. Like me she has seen a lot of death over the last few years. Her son and her brother. I am the last remaining son she has so I understand her concern but I believe in her heart she understands why I have to do this for the Silverstone name. Father didn't care. I imagine he hopes that I don't return so he can assume I was a martyr as well.

My relationship with my Father wasn't always that bad. Even after Charles defeated me in the duel and was revealed to be the family champion we were still on speaking terms. However not long after that dreadful day was when he showed his loathsome side.

My patience was tested by Thesues constantly before we finally headed into the great maze. His arrogance leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. The only silver lining is on the small chance he can back up his claims he will be a valuable member of the group. He is a hero and won the Labyrinth for Minos in the past but I fear this is a new kind of evil. One that brute strength cannot conquer but also a sharp mind is not quite enough. I feel I have the mind and a decent amount of strength but I am hoping that as a group we can conquer Willis.

The thing I fear most is the unknown and that is what I have before me. Minos was vague in our group's mission so we are stumbling around this maze aimlessly hoping for some sort of answer to appear before us. I do not know what my purpose is in this maze. I am beginning to feel that this is going to be so much more than a scouting mission.

My only prayer is that through my journey I can bring recognition to the Silverstone name bring pride to my Father, and bring pride to you my love. The group is jelling well so far minus the fool so hopefully it will continue moving forward.

Forever L&W

I don't understand why a group of ducks, a rock, a women, and a small child have more say in the group then I do. I try to present reasonable ideas about how to make sure we survive. I am trying to be the brains of the operation. I am wired for this non combat mission. Instead you listen to these inexperienced and naive pathetic excuses for warriors. It is infuriating.

The child is one of great concern. She seems innocent, as most children are. At the same time she is currently not human, atleast the kind of human we have in current times. If I were to go back in time and had the ability to choose any form I want I would definitely go back as a child and play the innocence up to my advantage. Of course she could be telling the truth but I have to be the voice of reason because it has been made clear that nobody else will.

The Queen has announced her support for the child. While I follow the orders of the Queen, my main role is to protect her. She has now made herself susceptible to the child's potential schemes and it is my job to protect her from that. My hope is that at the conclusion of our successful mission the Queen will spread word across the land of my bravery and loyalty and bring the Silverstone name glory once again.

Now my love I have to apologize once again for my harsh nature towards the trusting members of our gathering. We both know that it is wise to not be quick to trust. The merchant on that tragic day was oh so quick to help a young couple in need. Fuck him. I hope he is rotting in hell. Fate is a fickle thing. Why did we have to be in the market that day. The day the merchant decided to attempt steal our belongings. He failed in making it out with any of my possessions but he stole the one thing that was most precious in my life...

As we embarked into the third room of the Labyrinth we were greeted by a large room of stunning architecture and beauty. For a moment I had forgotten about my troubles and just reveled in my beauty. I only knew of one thing more beautiful. I wish we could of been there together. Perhaps bring a blanket and lay together. Now I am just fantasizing and all it does is create more pain. I miss you so much. I have yet to go to sleep at night without that day as my closing thoughts. I could of saved you. I saw his blade. I didn't react in time. It is my fault. My parting words for you was confessing my love. How I loved you how I had always loved you. You told me to move on but that is something I cannot do. Damnit Lorlei why were you so flawless.

My thoughts were interrupted by a shadowed figure charging the group. One of Willis' minions no doubt. Thankfully we handled it with ease. Airlea was quite skillful with her bow and arrow it was no doubt impress. I believe I had underestimated her due to the fact she was a women. Immediately after the figure was defeated a piercing purplish light that forced me to cover my eyes. That is when everything changed. I had always feared the unknown. But I never imagined in my wildest dreams what happened next.

We were no longer in the room of sanctity. It resembled the room we had been in before the light but it was now full of things I had never seen before. It had lights similar to the sun or candles but there was no indication of any sort of fire burning inside it. The once majestic flowing waterfall was no there no more. I would still love to lay with you in here but not because of its beauty. I do not want to go back on that path again however.

This room was surrounded by many more of the shadowy figures. It also contained a new set of mortals. These mortals did not look like us. They wore odd clothing and things on their faces and eyes. One was a monkey which matched the animal in our group. Or so I thought. It appeared that the ducks had turned into a mortal that looked like the people from the new group we had encountered. My curiosity was soon met with a shadowy sword. I turned and pulled out my own sword and we began a fierce battle. He was no match for me of course my dear. A new found confidence ran through my veins as we fought off the shadows and were now face to face with this odd group of humans.

It was soon revealed to us that we were in the future. Around 1300 years into the future to be exact. They had things I had never seen before. A square contraption which created paintings by flashing light into your eyes. Girls were carrying burlap bags with God only knows what. If this was what the future looks like I am happy I lived in the time that I did. The men reminded me of women. I am not a women.

My biggest curiosity of the future group was whether or not they have heard of the Silverstone family and specifically myself. Much to my surprise none of them knew of Wilt Silverstone nor the Silverstone family. I would be lying if I said this did not dampen my spirits. It means that I was not successful in my mission and for all I know everyone was not successful in their mission. The Child attempted to cheer me up but there was no point. There is no point in doing this mission if it was all going to be a failure. At my lowest point my thoughts had been answered as we were ambushed by a legion of shadow figures. Now dear I apologize but one of the girls in the group caught my eye. I cannot tell you why I did not take the name to learn her name. Perhaps in the future if we stick with these groups.

I thought it was over. I tried my best to fight them off but I was severely outmatched. All of a sudden a duo of hooded figures came and fought them off. The first one was identified as Roth. He was wise and explained how our two timelines had morphed together and that there was still hope for the past to be re-written. This gave me a little more hope than the words of a child. Unfortunately he was unable to stay and lead us and left us with what I believe to be his apprentice, Kristoff and instructions to divide ourselves into two groups.

As you know my dear I have never been one to be vocal and a leader. But I knew that out of the heroes I was probably one of the smartest in terms of wit and strategy so I wanted to be in a position of power. The best way I saw fit to do this was to get the Queen elected leader. I would of been at the hand of the Queen and able to assist her in leading. However my pleas fell upon deaf ears as Stonehard Lee and Ezra were chosen leaders.

I have nothing against Lee though. I mentioned in a previous passage that we would make a good team. I stand by that idea. I believe that him and I could conquer Willis by ourselves and to be teamed with other heroes it should be quite simple. Things took a turn for the worse when Kristoff began to speak.

Kristoff claims to have a staff. This staff has the ability to transport the group he is leading (he has to be in the lead) back to the past labyrinth. I considered going back to the past labyrinth with him instead of sticking with my rock covered friend but the Queen decided to stay in this Lab and that combined with the fact many of the more vocal heroes were leaving led to decide that the best course of action was to stay with Lee.

Kristoff is also a very confusing individual. He waited a long time to post about the staff and how he required being a leader of the group to use it. That would of been beneficial information at the time we were picking leaders. At the same time I agree with his decision not to pass the staff to anyone. An item so valuable like the staff, or perhaps a cape that allows the wearer to run at a fast speed is not an item that should be passed off. People are untrustworthy.

I went to bed feeling confident that we would be able to defeat Willis and also very curious about the idea of travelling through time. If I could master the power of travelling through time then perhaps I could go back to that day. I figured that Kristoff would not know so I need to find Roth again and ask him about it.

"I'd love it to be otherwise. But man is selfish. No matter what they are doing if there is nothing to gain for them, then they will not do it." - Matthieu Silverstone

Very true Uncle. Man is selfish. Everyone is in this maze for one central reason. Some of them like myself is to bring honor to their family and himself. For others it may be a love of killing, a desire for the wealth that Minos had promised. On the note of Minos, Kristoff mentioned that one of the immortals was Minos which confused me. I guess he died in the past and now he is some sort of demi-god. Maybe I should of paid more attention to what the Fat King said. Regardless I think he will help us out since he hates Willis.

But back to the selfishness of man everyone is in it for themselves. Though each man has a level of this selfishness. It is a level of desperation to get what you want. What would you be willing to do to achieve what you want. Some men claim to be holy which only means they are weak and only willing to do what it takes if what it takes is not something that they feel is morally unacceptable. I feel that for the most part that is the path that I take.

I briefly mentioned that I noticed a girl in the future group that caught my attention. I soon noticed that this girl was named Brie. Her attitude, her appearance, her aura reminds me so much of you my dear it is uncanny. It is not perfect and do not worry my sweet Lorlei you are the only girl in my heart but being around her helps me remember slightly how I felt being around you. I was pleased to see that she joined Lee's group. I am not sure if I will befriend her or not I wish I could ask you what you want me to do my dear. Even though you told me to find someone else, I can't help but believe as my Uncle said that you find your true love eventually and that it always wins out.

When Kristoff became the official second leader over Ezra the dynamics of the groups. The fellow heroes I was once in the same group with such as Dern, Maria, and Airlea decided to side with Kristoff instead of stay with Lee. I was pretty saddened by this because I had hopes we would stick together and protect eachother and get through this maze together.

As I lay down alone and slumbered thoughts of time travel and moving through time danced around my head. I was jolted awake in the middle of night to see a hooded figure standing above me. At first I thought it was Roth and was relieved thinking this was my time to get more information on returning to that day. However when the hood was lifted it was not who I expected.

It was my Uncle. I knew I had seen him that afternoon in Minos' castle. He greeted me with a smile and said, "So you have been looking into time travel my Nephew." I was too stunned to speak. How did he get here? How is he alive? I pinched myself and felt pain course through my body. This was no dream. I looked around the room to see if anyone else was awake but everyone else laid motionless. I got an uneasy feeling in my body. This may not be a dream but this is also not reality. I turned back to my Uncle.

"Do not worry you are the only one conscious," the hooded man was no longer my Uncle. I did not recognize but knew exactly who he was.

"Willis," I spat. I worried for a moment. Is this the end. Have I made it all this way just to fall into some magician's trap. I bet Kristoff got to use his magical staff thing and it gave Willis access to everyone's head in the room. I wasn't ready to die. I tried to grab my sword but it was no use. I had no control of my body. I looked up and stared at the evil wizard.

"My dear Wilt," He said with a smile. Though I could not understand why he was so villainous it might of had something to due with the fact he was a gruesome looking man. The only hair on his head was scruffy and on his face. His right eye was deformed and remained fix in a certain direction. It appeared that his cheek had been severely burned. "I have a proposal for you."

"I will never make a deal with you." Even though I could not use my body I stared at him with confidence and determination. Willis was someone I could take. Similarly to me he was not that of physical strength but instead of mental strength. I knew that while he could take me to this dream land he had no way of actually harming me for if he did I would surely be dead by now. He did however not seem phased by my threat. Then I saw you.

You looked so beautiful tears began to flow down my face. He had been six years since I had seen your beautiful face. From what I could tell you could not see me as if I was invisible but you look scared and frightened and unsure of what was going on. I knew Willis was a powerful man, and also a magician but I had no idea that he could bring people back from the dead. I am embarrassed to write what happened next. Not in fear that I am unsuccessful and some future explorers finds my words but in fear that I am successful and you realize what I have done. The man I have become. If that does happen I do remind you. Every man is selfish. There is something that every man will do anything for. For me, that something is you.

Willis could tell that I was without words so he continued. "As you can see I can bring her back," he said with a villainous grin, "I will only want this to happen is if you help me on my little mission." He moved his hand in quick chopping motion and the image of my sweet Lorlei had gone. I turned my focus back to him. "I need you to be the last man standing on this mission. Help me open up Pandora's box and you and your love will live happily ever after in the New World."

New World? These words confused me. "But Roth said that Pandora's box will release all things wicked and the world will be destroyed." Willis smiled at the name of his nemesis.

"Have you read the Tanakh Wilt," Willis asked. I nodded my head I knew of the stories in that book. The God of love rather than gods of wrath. Personally being a man who has made many mistakes I hope it is true. Then again my Father taught me and my brothers that you make your own fate and my Uncle told me that religion leads only to problems.

"Do you remember of the story of the Flood?" Willis continued. I focused and remembered the story of a man who was told by the God to build an ark. And that the ark would protect him as God destroyed the earth, cleansing it of the sinful nature. Willis realizing that I had heard continued with his speech, "Think of it as that Wilt. The world is full of corruption and immoral behavior. Look at the people in the future group. The men are not men. They are marrying each other instead of women. People are laying with others and not even learning each others name. People are worshiping screens that show pictures and can communicate with people instead of the true God." It made perfect sense. Compared to the past I had come from, the year 2000 and whatever is a mess.

"When the box is open, I have spoken to God and built an arc. Not an ark that goes in water, but an arc that is used for storing things, or people. It is the size of a room and I would allow you and your women to stay in the room when the box is opened." Willis stopped speaking and allowed me to think.

"How do I know that was really her." I said after a few seconds of thinking. This sounded too good to be true. How could a man so evil be speaking on behalf of God. Perhaps he knew of my faith and was using that against me. At the same time I could be missing out on the opportunity of a life time. To be with you. To be with the one I love. I would not have to write to you in this damned journal I could actually be there with you.

"Wilt," the voice I heard was not Willis. I turned and you were standing next to me. My arms were released from the Magician's grip and I slowly brought them towards our face. Your cheek was as soft I was remember. You a small smile crept on your face. Even though you felt so real and sounded so real you were only able to be with me in this limbo world controlled by magic. You were still dead. For now. You slowly leaned in and slowly kissed my lips. The experience was nothing that can be described. I am not sure if you were aware but I had kissed a few women after your death and seeing as we had never done so before your death I did not know if I was doing it right. I realized that I was not even close. The feelings I felt in that embrace were astonishing. I felt like I was alive. A sort of lighting bolt shot through my body and I was re-energized. As you backed away my eyes tried to echo not to leave but shortly after the kiss ended you were gone.

My eyes went back to Willis. "Does she know of what I will have to do." He shook his head no.

"She knows nothing. I brought her back to life shortly after you entered the maze. I explained to her that you were on a mission for me and that if you were successful that she would be resurrected and returned you." Willis paused, "She was pleased to know that you had not found another."

My thoughts turned to Brie. She was a sweet girl but the situation has changed. "How can I kill 44 people," I asked. "I have no powerful weapon."

Willis grinned, "While I cannot give you a weapon as I can only enter your head. I can give you the power you desire most." My mind jumped to what I had been dreaming of early. Before I could say anything he continued. "You will have the ability to escape death through time travel. The methods I teach you will not allow you to time travel back long, approximately a day earlier but will be beneficial in ensuring that you survive my dangerous maze."

"I am in," I said sternly, "Not for you but for Lorlei." Willis' smile faded and he became serious.

"Very well. We shall begin training at once."

He spent the next 30 minutes instructing me on the methods of time travelling. While I was not perfect it was fascinating to learn and I was successful about two-thirds of the time. While this isn't perfect I will work on it in my sleep as I can jump back in time and not affect anything in the present. As I learned I could not help wondering what was going on in Willis' head. Why me, everybody had to have their asking prices to do such a heinous act, surely some of them would be less difficult than mine. Though at the same time I had no idea how difficult it was to raise someone from the dead. I was not complaining about you. Even when I studied his tactics the only thing I could think of was you and the fact that one day very soon we could be together again.

As our training had concluded I knew it was time for me to wake up and once again be with the large group. "I am rooting for you," Willis said with a genuine smile as he slowly faded away, "I had a love once..."

I awoke to Parker and Angela once again hounding Kristoff for the staff. I regretted my previous defense of Kristoff the night before. He claimed more would die if he was unable to transport them to the past. That would of been convenient.

Maybe my Uncle was right when told me that if our love was true we would be reunited one way or another. That kiss was so pure, so perfect it had to be real. Not even a magician could fake that. A new found confidence fell over me that night. I woke up so much more friendly towards the others. You would think that being tasked to kill people would make you feel malice towards them however I wanted to ensure that their last few days on this Earth were happy.

I know I will be successful. Our love is true so we will be reunited. It is destiny. The future maze is a said to be a maze of danger so my group should dwindle down quickly. For the creator of this labyrinth I was hoping to get a little more insight to the traps but I suppose this new found trick is helpful enough. From Willis point of view he is unsure of whether or not to trust me with the secrets of his Labyrinth. He underestimates my love for you, makes me think he was never once in love. That could be another reason he is such an evil man. As long as he is a man of his word than I do not care because after my mission is complete I fear I will be considered an evil man as well.

The groups began the split. This could be the last time I see many acquaintances I have grown fond of the last couple days. I hope they die before we reunite. I would hate to have to kill them. The mission has changed. It used to be to defeat Willis but now it is help him succeed in cleansing the world for the corrupt mess it has become.

As we walked towards the exit of the east my eyes met with Brie's. She gave me a small smile. She reminds me so much of you my love. Whenever I glance upon her face I think of the moment we shared last night. Your lips against mine. The soft skin on your cheek. Your soft voice saying my name. I am nothing without you. I would do everything for you. I am doing everything for you. I am yours, and you are mine. I am forsaking my SilverStone name, forsaking the oath I swore to my Queen, plotting to kill innocent woman and children. I am doing it in the name of love and as Willis claims they are not innocent anyway. They are sinners who are being done away with by the spirits in Pandora's Box. Not only will my love be returned to me but the World will also be cleansed. It is a double win situation.

My soul comforted with my constant reassurance I turn and say to the group led by Kristoff. "I will make sure that in the future you will hear of Wilt Silverstone." Indeed the future will. But they will not be in the future for they are not apart of the world being cleansed.

I held the handle of my sword as I walked onto the next room.


Forever L&W

To my surprise instead of entering the next room of the future Labyrinth we were instead transported back into the past. The room with the waterfall entered my vision again. Peace and tranquility entered my body. It was nice to be back in the past. Back in a familiar setting. The Queen's face shone bright knowing she was back in her time. Back when she was royalty and I was her guard. The Emperor on the other hand was not pleased.

He rambled on about treating him as an Emperor regardless of the time zone but I quickly put him in his place. He placed me on some sort of naughty list but I ignored him. I would not have him talk to my Queen like that. As I write this I am reconsidering why protect the king. If I want her back I must betray my Queen. I have not really thought much about this. I try not to. Taking an innocent life is difficult, regardless of how guilty Willis paints them to be. I looked around the large room and tried in my head to justify it. I just couldn't. I closed my eyes and was transported once again to a dream world.

Willis was not there. It was just... just, you sitting there on a pile of leaves. The waterfall rushing behind you. You lifted your finger and slowly used it to motion me over. I forgot all my worries and just lived in the moment. I slowly walked towards you and all your beauty smiling, not grinning at me. Butterflies fluttered through my body as I reached the spot where you lay. It all turned to dust.

"Wilt," He said with a stern and sinister voice. My body seemed to shake with fear.

"Are you okay?" The voice was no longer his. I snapped back to reality to see Brie standing before me. I felt my face turn slightly red. I had no idea how long I had been standing there. It must not of been long as she seemed to be the only paying any attention to me. I shook off the dazed expression on my face from my dream. She was looking down at my arm. I remembered that Peter had caught me off guard when we first met. There was a small flesh wound, nothing to be too worried about but she seemed to disagree.

She patched it with great care and we discussed our past. I shared with her about Father and Uncle. I was honest with her but I left out our history. I hope this does not anger her but I did not want to complicate things. Her trusting me is the best for my plan. The more integrated I am with the group the less suspicious they will be of my ulterior motives. Plus she reminds me a lot of you. I hope you don't take any offense to this my dear. I am not sure all you are seeing through Willis but if you are seeing me with this girl know that it is nothing. Well it is not nothing, I do care for Brie but I care for you much more.

We ventured out of the large room and entered a room full of sand. Immediately without haste the boy with the off colored hair, Parker his name I believe, opened it. The people from the future are such fools. Does he not realize that could of very well been the end for him. Luckily for him it was not and we proceeded to dig in attempt to search for an item. Two items were found but alas none in my care. A key was given to Parker, and a hatchet was given to Sr. Culo. When I had heard that Culo was given a hatchet my heart dropped. This is something that I would of benefited from greatly. Especially if I could of gained it without being noticed. Another time perhaps. Culo is unfortunately now someone I would like to see die in hopes that I gain access to his hatchet.

Soon after we were greeted by some sort of sand monsters. They claimed to be on the side against Willis and proclaimed that Willis had friends in the group. I tried no to look suspicious but I doubt anyone was paying attention to my actions over trying not to be killed by these maniacs. In the end everyone made it out in one piece however a few were frightened.

While I am a intellectual man and am training to have the gift of time travel, I too succumb to emotion. My relationship with Brie is becoming dangerous. She reminds me so much of you my loves Lorlei. You are the stars and my moon, she is just a shooting rock briefly passing through. Do not worry about that. I could not stand to see her cry and comforted her. That combined with the low temperature in the room led us to partake in what she called "snoogling". We shared body heat and I will admit I slept very well.

"You are becoming well liked by your fellow group members," Willis stood before me smiling that bastard smile. I was back in the land of dreams. I felt more comfortable then I had in the past. I had the ability to move as I pleased. He continued, "I trust that the girl will not cause problems?"

My mind shifted to the girl that was sleeping next to my soulless body. She was merely a girl. Innocent and naive. Perhaps, she had a dark past and perhaps she was a sinner but is that enough to condemn her to death. Yes, yes it was for every man has a price. My price was the love of my everything. My price was you.

"She will not be a problem," I responded without emotion. "Lorlei is the one I love."

Willis greeted my stare and nodded, "Death is coming. You must be ready." My soul slid back into my body and my mind began training once again my time travelling skills. Willis had forewarned danger and I knew I had to be ready to react if it was my life in danger.

Everyone must die eventually so why should it be frowned upon to achieve your desires while you are still living. Even if it is at the expense of others. Is my happiness worth it. I turned and looked at Brie at peace with a faint smile as her body fit next to mine like a puzzle piece. I sighed and stared at the sandy ceiling. Though I had promised my group a restful sleep, these questions could not shake my mind.

"Think before you act Wilt. Examine the repercussions and if they are worth it." - Katherine Silverstone

How part of me wishes that I just listened to her and stayed at home. My life was no means bad. Sure I was not respected but I was safe and for the most part happy. The hole in my heart where you once were would of still been there but in the situation I am in has left me with an impossible choice. I have an uphill battle ahead of me and if I am not successful I will be surely responsible for many, tarnished the Silverstone name and still be without the love of my life.

These are the thoughts that swirled through my head as I lay next to Brie. I glanced around at the room. Boone was playing in the sand supposedly standing guard from the sand. I would not trust him to protect me but regardless I had enjoyed his company. I had never seen so much personality in anything that was not human. Our Fearless leader Rock was lying alone. He claims to be one of the last of his species, with the others all being older and sickly. I wonder if he has anyone to love. It is hard enough knowing that your true love is gone but I could not imagine having no hope in finding one at all.

I looked at the Emperor next. That pompous bastard who had the gall to come into this time and challenge the authority of my Queen. After our exchange he has been rather tame just ignoring me as we continued on through the maze. Still I would not like him behind me. Frederick lay in the corner of the room alone. I did understood this night skinned man. He seemed well versed and intelligent but used it all to create conflict and discord to anyone who spoke to him. At first I considered it a defense mechanism until he treated me with the same disrespect after coming to his defense. Some people I will just never understand, especially those from the future era.

My gaze turned to Brie. It is amazing what a wide variety of people come from the merge. There are sweet, innocent girls that seem almost like angels, and there are those who curse and are arrogant and rude. Worst of all there are those who appear to be innocent but our truly devilish and tricky with their words and schemes. I am referring to Parker and Angela by these words. They treat the night skinned men as lower class imbeciles and try to trick them into putting themselves in danger for their own safety. Brie told me of a law that the King (she used another word which I cannot remember) involving the equal rights for night skinned people. However I do not see that the people of the future treated the King's law with much respect.

My greatest fear has been revealed my dear. I am beginning to develop relationships and feelings for these people. However whenever I close my eyes I see your majestic face and my mission is refreshed throughout my mind. These people must die. While it is unfortunate it is something that needs to be done for you my love. I will justify it by saying I am doing for mankind, like Willis said but I am not sure this is what the people deserve. People like Parker and Angela help justify this cause but others like Brie and Ezra make me reconsider. Overall it will be an opportunity for me and you to start the world fresh my Lorlei.

I do not know how long it took me to fall asleep, nor how long I was asleep for but when I awoke Brie was gone. After a slight panic I realized that compared to the others I had slept long and they were entertaining themselves while waiting for the others to rise and our journey to continue. Sr. Culo, who had received a hatchet was being careless when considering passing it to the Rock. He let it slip out of his hands and crash to the ground. Now I may not be known for my strength, but my speed helps me in situations like this. I had grabbed the hatchet and slipped it into my jacket without anybody noticing. I turned towards the Emperor and readied my attack.

All of a sudden my body jerked backwards. I recognized this place all too well. Willis appeared to me with his hood up but I could still tell his face was bright red with rage. "You fool," He yelled, "Do you want to get yourself killed? I know you want to be reunited with your love but this is not a mission of speed. It is a mission of wit and strategy. This is the reason you were chosen over others."

I looked down in embarrassment. What had I done. I felt as if I had not only let myself down, but let you down. Willis placed his arm on my shoulder. This was the first physical contact we had in the dream realm. His hands felt cold as ice if there was no blood was coursing through his veins. Of course a heart is required for that so it would make perfect sense.

"It is okay Wilt," He lifted my head up as if to reassure me. "Now is time to practice going back in time. You do not have to go back long, just long enough to allow Frederick to get the hatchet."

After that he vanished. I focused my mind and soon saw everything slowly move backwards. Willis warned me that even though the past was happening again, the people around me may remember the events that had been seemingly erased. Thankfully they had not noticed of my betrayal yet as the Emperor was still conversing with his niece. Continuing backwards I slid the Hatchet into Frederick's bag and resumed my spot next to Brie. It was an incredible experience, being able to control time. If only I could of developed this some six years ago.

Frederick seemed confused that the hatchet was in his bag but thankfully he kept his mouth shut. He finished the exchange to Lee and all was right in the world. I breathed a side of relief as Brie pulled me close as our time to move was approaching. Tyron led the way to the next room and was greeted by a large cave and sinister looking spikes.

Ezra opened it and ended up trapped in the cage rather than Tyron. The Queen followed suit despite my plea and I was forced to do my duty to save her. I was worried I would be stuck in the cage for a great while and considered trying my newfound power once again. I soon thought otherwise as it would reveal myself to the group as much more powerful than they expected.

Thankfully Parker ended up in the cage after a few more exchanges. I will have no remorse is Parker ends up falling to his death I have no feelings for him. The group discussed splitting up to have some stay and some go to the next room and wait. I fear that Tyron will become impatient in the next room and force the group to split. Even though this would potentially create more deaths at the same time it creates more unknown on my part. I am currently aware of the status of 23 players in the game. I do not want that number to go even smaller still.

The time has come for me to go to sleep again. I pray to God that I am greeted by you once again in my night vision. My task is not easy to accept as the only man I have ever killed was the Merchant. I guess all my victims will share the same reasoning behind their fate, killed for the love of my life. You have my heart and you are the only reason it is still beating. When my chances of being with you have been extinct then it will no longer beat.

Forever L&W

I apologize for my lack of communication with you the moon of my life. While it may not sound as so being trapped in a maze and plotting everyone death is busy work. When I had left off we were in the room with the cage. The purple haired fool had been saved by Eleanor. We left that room convinced that she had sacrificed herself for the group. A valiant display of courage, one that I would never do. I claim to be loyal to the Queen, to Brie but I would never sacrifice my life for anyone other than you. Death is a scary thing but if I die knowing I saved you I feel like it would be less scary and I would feel at peace.

The next room we were able to look into the other rooms of the labyrinth. We found that rooms of our past have a portal which could lead to the future. I do not look forward to going back to the future my love. I feel so much closer to you here in the past. The future is full of unknowns and is much danger. It would probably be easier to get rid of my group there but at the same time I want to make sure I stay alive as well. The nights are sleepless. Occasionally Willis will teach me more about going back in time but I am feeling as confident in my ability as I can. He says there is not a way to make it work all the time but assured me that it will work the firs two times I am in danger. Willis is a suspicious ally. He is not one to provide useful information about the others in the group. It makes me worry that he is either not as powerful as he claims or I am not the only one he is using. For all I know he is using everyone. I do not feel safe at all.

We waited in the room with the magical bowl of water anxious to know if Eleanor had survived the spikes. Myself, the Emperor, and a couple others scoffed at the idea of Eleanor surviving but low and behold she crawled through the door bloody and not in great shape but survived without any assistance or healing. This is really concerning for me. I remember those spikes being incredibly sharp and I am surprised that such a fragile girl could survive a fall. I feel like Willis may be involved, but it could also possibly be Roth. I will keep a close eye on her.

At the same time the Purple Haired fool left with the night skinned runner for the North leaving the group behind. Even though I am going to betray the group in the future I could not believe his stupidity, foolishness and outright disrespect for Eleanor who had saved his life. Low and behold the night skinned runner died by going North and the Purple Haired Fool came back like a bad dog with his tail between his legs. I scoffed and his betrayal and wanted to call for his head but when the night skinned body was examined it was clear that there was no way he could of done it. While I am not looking forward to killing anyone there are a couple people I am not going to be too distraught about taking their lives.

The Purple Haired Fool did serve some use though as he was forced to enter into the next room as the leader. Because of this he too was shot with spikes causing him injuries similar to that of Eleanor. This cleared the red haired women's story as I was surprised to see both survive such a brutal attack. I wish he had died, but it seemed I was not lucky that day. We were greeted once again by the skeleton creatures screaming for the heads of friends of Willis. I do not plan on letting them have my head. I also would not consider myself a friend of Willis, I have a deal with him but I do not consider him my friend in any way. If he delivers my angel to me then I may reconsider but the trial he has put me through is not one a friend would place on another.

We decided to go to the West because the spike shooting statue seemed to be guarding the entrance. That decision is one that proved very costly.

"While my loyalty is nearly unbreakable, love will break my loyalty." - Wilt Silverstone

I try to hide it best I can but I have a deep fear of the unknown, particularly the dark. I do not believe I ever shared this with you. I figure that you probably had some sort of idea though. When we were children we would run into the woods. You always took charge and teased me to keep up. It was not that I could keep up, it was I feared for my safety, our safety. They say it is the man's job to be brave and because I cared about you so much that I decided to force away my fear and venture into the unknown with you my love.

Do you remember that one time we explored Huntswell cave. It was so dark and even though I tried to hide my terror I am sure you could tell by the grip I had on your hand. The bats raced when we approached causing me to nearly burst into tears. You could not stop laughing. I am jealous of your bravery. Even in your dying breath you were still brave. I am attempting to be brave for you my moon. There are many unknowns in this maze and if I am to achieve the goal that Willis has set for me I am going to have to take chances. Whenever I step through a hall way I close my eyes and think of you and you give me the power to continue.

When we ventured west I was greeted with my fear. A room dark and mysterious, full of glass. One of the tiles of glass reflected my image, but the rest were images of the rest of the people in the group. We were instructed to choose to save one member of the group. We could opt to save ourselves if we felt no one would save us. Two mirrors were caught between my gaze: The Queen and Brie. I was at a crossroads. I knew that neither were up to your standards but it was now the time to choose. I could not keep pledging loyalty to both, though I hoped that we would stay together as a group.

I would be lying if I said I thought long and hard about my decision that day, for me it was simple. While I have pledged my loyalty to the Queen, my realtionship with Brie is developing quickly and I feel that she trusts me and while it pains me to know that I will eventually have to dispose of her, I know that it is all for you. All so that I can see your beautiful face again, feel the warmth of your skin, and tell you every day for the rest of our long lives that I love you with all my heart.

I broke Brie's mirror and was transported into a room with her. It was a very intimate moment. She told me that she loved me and I was tempted to say the same. It made me think back to the day that I lost you. I told you that I loved you as you breathed your last breaths and you said the same. Could you of simply been saying that as a natural reponse, or was that the true feeling in your heart. Surely Willis would not of put me on this near impossible task for a love that was not real, surely the kiss we shared when he brought you into the dream world could not of happened if our love was not real. I decided that love was not something that I could directly lie about so I told her that while my loyalty was nearly unbreakable, it was vulnerable to love. Unfortunately for Brie I was referring to my loyalty to her, and my love for you my angel.

I could not sleep that night. Thoughts swirled through my head like a typhoon and I worried that I would lose them if I closed my eyes. My feelings for Brie were beginning to feel real. I could feel my heart being ripped in two, between someone who was there I could see, I could touch and someone who was dead. I was transported to the Dream World once again, the first time in quite some time. There was no sign of Willis there was only you. You slowly made your way to me and nuzzled your head into my chest. The only words you said in the time I was holding you in my arms was, "I know the journey will be painful, but I love you." That was all I needed to hear.

The next day we were reunited with a majority of the group. Balagar, Pai Chan and the Queen had been lost in the room of mirrors. My heart dropped at the loss of the Queen but secretly I worried that her apperance would raise into question my loyalty to the throne. The options placed before us was to either travel by boat to the west, or go through a locked door. Eleanor presented with a map that showed what appeared to be a moat around Neptune's cavern. I am not one who has studied much of the legends of the gods being one of the few who believes in the single, true, God but I knew that this would only lead the group closer to their goal.

Despite my slight urging to go South we headed on the boat. I have yet to really talk about Urk on this journey. Urk is some short of shape changer, he appears as a new shape seemingly every day. Occasionally he is things that I know like ducks, or a pirate. At other times he is things that I do not recognize. I had always believed Maria was the one to be worried about but I now believe that it is Urk who is a dangerous man from the future. We also got word from Mark, who has the ability to communicate with a person from the other group, that said group is in the present lab. I had also been told that the group lost only one member. So much for the future being more dangerous, Willis was not making my job easy.

My biggest fear is that the groups unite into a large group. There is safety in numbers and I would prefer us to not be safe. I also need to figure out a way to deal with Urk as it appears that his powers have the ability to fight off Monsters, which would be useful in downsizing our group of heroes. We are at a point where we can decide to wait, to sail west again, or to head south into the unknown. I feel like such a villain writing these horrible plots in a journal. I hope that whether successful or not whoever reads these can understand what I am going through and knows that even though what I am doing may be wrong, I am doing it for the one I love.

Ezra and I had a chat the other night and he told me a quote from the future that he says is well used. "The ends justify the means." I believe it means that when we are reunited it will not matter what I have done. All that matters is that we will be together.


Forever L&W

URK used his power to protect us from the monster that we would of surely encountered on the boat ride. It is a shame to, I would of loved to lose another member of the fearless group. Makes my job that much easier. We decided instead of continuing on the water that we would head South closer to what we believe is the sword. I sure hope that we are not on the right path as I would be beginning to run out of time. I breathed in as I headed towards the door. I was actually forced to test my bravery as I ventured into the unknown.

Darkness, I ventured into it holding my breath. Worried that I would have to expose myself as a time traveler and use my power to escape death. Would it even work my head was full of unknowns. Instead a room lit with Candles, whose light quickly vanished leaving us in pitch black. I slowly rubbed my bag. This would of been a perfect time to try out that hatchet I had for a couple of minutes. The missed opportunities between Labyrinth initiated events and events I could control are beginning to stack up. However through Mark we have found out that the other group is a complete mess. They are back in the present with us and really completing basically nothing. The longer this mission continues the better chance that people have of dying. I will not have much success until I can come across some weapons but hopefully soon enough.

I learned a couple things while we were in the dark. First that people love to mock me. I do not understand why. They acted like I was a love struck fool and that I liked to lay with men... neither of which is true. I am confident I will get the last laugh as I carve them into little pieces. That was vulgar, I am sorry my love. The second thing I learned is that there is a doctor. I for one cannot get saved at death because I get automatically transported back in time. Urk can be saved from death and has a very useful power which is hurting my chances at winning. I do not know who the healer is though I suspect it may be Lee or Culo. But to be completely honest I have no idea.

Eventually light was restored and we were left wondering who was who in the darkness. I did not think too much about it. Besides the healer reveal there was not too much said, just mockery. We ventured into the next room which featured machinery like gears and cogs. It was fascinating. Machinery like this is just beginning to be created but in the maze it seems so large. It someone had the ability to move us from one part of the maze to another. I wanted to shake Willis' hand after that since it left us in a worse position than before. Everything went to shambles after the move.

Brie wanted to go first and put her life on the line. I tried to bite my tongue but that was one thing I could not do. My mind flashed back to that day. I relived the last moments of your life.

"The hail is coming down so hard," I grimaced as the small balls of ice pelted us from the sky. I could of taken it easily for the mile walk home but I knew you were unable. "Maybe that street merchant will let us stand under his fruit stand."

You began to walk towards him. "I am sure being asked by a pretty damsel in distress will help our chances," She giggled as she skipped over to the stand.

I should of stopped you. I wasn't going to let that happen again. Yes I know I will eventually have to get rid of Brie but the time has not yet come for her. I tried to stop her but she was stubborn. She claimed that in her time women did not always listen to men. This kind of took me aback. I was not sure how to react. I did not feel as if I was trying to control her. If anything she should be thanking me for protecting her and going against my oath to the Queen. For me it really ruined her perfectness for me. I will admit my angel that she was tugging at my heart but now I can confirm that you are the only perfect girl in my life.

Thankfully she was spared by God as we ventured into a room with two stairs. Willis promised us a gift if we were able to beat our opponent in a race to the top of the stairs. I thought about running in hopes I could get something that would assist me in the future. However I was bombarded with questions about my power. Facing the pressure I mentioned that I have been given the ability to go back in time and that I plan to use it for the good of the group.

I expected to get zapped into Dream Land and get a harsh talking to from Willis. Revealing my power was foolish and now I was at a disadvantage. With that being said for the most part everyone bought it and it may lead me to being a more valuable and respected member in the group. I will use my power to help the group and hopefully make them believe that I have good intentions.

In the end Angela got the power to steal items which once again would of been incredibly useful. At the same time I am not sure they would of believed that I only got a key and a scroll so it might be best that I did not get the prize. Fong lost the competition and fell to what we believe would be his death. He survived and claims to of lost his power. I do not believe him for a second. However if he is evil then it is possible we could help each other.

"Someone relocked the door immediately after. We have someone up to no good in our group." - Rita

I twiddled my thumbs as we ventured into the next room. I was nervous of my future in the labyrinth after my reveal in the previous phase. I had not been completely honest about my role saying I had only two rewinds instead of three and that they could be used without my death. Of course if need be I can just tell Sr. Culo to hatchet off my head so we can go back in time but the fact that time only rewinds in my death would basically confirm my allegiance to Willis.

My relationship with Brie has gotten quieter the past through phases. I am sure this pleases you my angel. I am not sure if it had to do with me not wanting her to go first or the verbal displeasure of Ezra and others about how close we were getting. I feel as when I am with her I am taken less seriously which is a bad thing but also a good thing. As I mentioned in the last entry I was being viewed as a lovestruck fool which is bad but at the same time they would never expect a lovestruck fool to be secretly plotting their deaths.

Spiders creepily crawled through the room. I have a feeling Urk once again protected us. Damn him. The door to the North was locked and Angela used the key to unlock it. To I believe everyones surprise the door was quickly locked afterwards. I smiled to myself. From the beginning of this I believed that I was on my own. However this relocking confirmed that Willis was on my side and actually had the ability to help me out.

Afterwards the events that continued are hardly worth mentioning. We continued to roam around in the maze backtracking and bickering about backtracking. It is honestly the ideal situation for the group to be in. If they cannot collect themselves and focus on the mission at hand then they will never complete the mission at hand. Eleanor was dead for a moment before she was revived by the healer. I hope that one more heal is used before I plot to kill Urk. Origo died as well but he really served no purpose.

Eventually we decided that the time had come to head to the future. I glanced uneasily at Brie as Ezra opened a portal and we began to step through. I never thought I would be willingly leaving everything I knew everything, everything I loved and venturing off into the unknown full of inventions I could not fathom. I hope Willis knows what he is doing...


Forever L&W

I grabbed Brie's hand (I am sorry my dear), as the portal transported us forward. I felt dizzy and insecure as world transformed around me. Things got older and changed over time. I cannot explain what it is like to see things rapidly change through your very eyes. I looked around at the rest of the group. Ezra looked brave and not scared of what the future had to offer, Fong looked similar resting on the half of his staff remaining. The Rock looked weary and in my opinion suspicious but I am not looking to oust those against the group, I am looking to bring my love back from the grave.

The present was now the past and we were in the dismal place that many of our group calls home. Hopefully I can allow them to lay rest in said home. When the dust settled we realized that Ezra was gone. As he had predicted the round before the room was tripped with a teleportation pad and had been portaled off to another part of the maze. Immediately the entire group starts slandering Ezra's good name. It worries me what would happen if I left. Were people suspicious of me and biting their tongue.

My worries escalated when discussion of the statue room began. The statue room, the people of the future claimed was a room full of magic that could answer yes or no answers. Their purpose was to expose people aligned to Willis. Why would Willis put something in his labyrinth with the sole purpose to expose the people working for him. As we went from room to room in the future I worried about the encounter with that room and what would happen if they found out my ulterior motives.

My mind wandered to a story that my Uncle had told me. There was once an attempt on the old Queen's life (the one before Genevieve) and my Uncle was tasked with finding out who was behind it. He was able to narrow it down to a half dozen candidates but that was still too many to condemn them all to death. My Uncle was smarter than that. He would go to these men and tell them that they were guilty. Five of the men responded with some sort of this must be a mistake. One of the men, pushed him down and took off. This man was guilty. As we exited the door and headed toward to what we believed was the statue room my mind decided that I would try to explain the mistake rather than reverse time and try to run.

He told me, "A guilty man is quick to argue accusations, a innocent man tries to find out why he is being accused." Of course I was not innocent but I had to act like I was innocent. The thought was nestled in my head, I am guilty. I am guilty of doing something wrong. But was what I was doing wrong?

Doubt seeped into my mind. Could they know my motives? I have been cloaked behind a mask of deception for nearly a month, desperately trying to gain the edge of this unsuspecting group of less than innocent people. I do not like what I have been tasked to do but I consider it the same as an executioner. One does not simply enjoy killing but understands there are punishments for the crimes that w commit.

I had been given instructions loud and clear. humanity has sinned, a second cleansing is in order. however this group of renegades no longer seperated by time are fighting to change that. I must ensure that they will be stopped.

Am I eating the apple? Listening to the serpeant? This I do not know. My prize is my dear sweet Lorlei and as my uncle once told me, every man has his asking price to do the unspeakable. In a way regardless of whether or not it was right or wrong I wanted you back. I needed you back. This opportunity was the reason I am still fighting on. Right?

Mark announced that the Queen was now on her own*. I had abandoned her, my Queen, who I had sworn loyalty to when we entered this horrid place. I looked at Brie. I entered this maze hoping to bring honor to the Silverstone name, like my late Uncle had. Should I fail and the heroes succeed I will have only tarnished it. Become famous instead of infamous. And Brie. I care about her. A smile on her face brings the same to mine. Such beauty but also such a passion for doing what is right. She told me she loved me. I dodged around the question. I never said those three words back. I do not think she noticed. She is smart but naive. I am no Prince Charming but the biggest mistake she will ever make in her life. My motivations in the maze changed tides when Willis presented the offer to me.

I rarely sleep. Thinking, plotting, training, wondering if what I am doing is right. When I do I picture you, next to me. We don't speak, we don't move I am just there. And I feel... nothing. Maybe this is because I know in my heart you are dead and unless I pull off this improbable mission you will stay that way. Or maybe, just maybe what I am fighting for is not Worth it. These are the things I think about instead of sleeping. I am sorry my dear but God blessed me with a complex mind. The same complex mind that Willis is hoping for me to use to bring you back.

The Phases run together now. Ever since my impending doom has been talked about my mind has wondered about my life and drifted back to my original intention. My legacy as a Silverstone. There was a small circular sphere designed to set the room on fire but Urk made it stop by typing numbers on some sort of board. I confirmed why I hate the future. The mechanics here confuse me. I know what nothing is. Brie used the word Compootah. The future is unknown, and the unknown is scary. The truth is scary as well and we are headed for the inevitable revealing of said truth.

*This happened a few phases later but fits better into the story if mentioned at this point
