((OOC: The chest would have been empty and the journal removed by the time you arrived. The key with the broken necklace chain would have still been in the chest's lock. The journal prims were still there owing to lack of permissions for me to del...

I was amused to read the various Babbage papers claiming I had killed Mactavish. It would take far more than electricity to bring down her on a permanent basis. If I could find a way of making a permanent end to her I would but this ghoul has managed to surv… Continue

Text of a letter to Doctor Obolenksy
Text of a letter addressed to Doctor Obolenksy, undelivered, discovered by Softpaw Sommer and handed to the authorities.

Dear Jodhpurs,
My sincerest appreciation for the use of the Enforced Reality Emitter in dealing with the protective wards. I can only assume that Barthelmess's equipment was placed under Babbage Square at the request of Steelhead's Sheriff or Manager, likely in collusion with Babbage's Christmas elf. Fort… Continue

Baron Klaus Wulfenbach said… - Professor Parx,
Good to see you again. I did not realise you had been at TPU as well; perhaps you taught after my graduation?
If you have not had the newspaper from Steelhead, Herr Barthelmess is still presumed dead, but his remains have also not been recovered. I will not pretend that his absence, at least, is anything but a relief; however I can sympathise with your loss of a friend.
Yrs.,
Klaus Wulfenbach
