[i]“Dearest,

Once again my heart is filled with dread and sorrow. It seems that I know not anything but these two emotions. If my soul truly does exist, why is it so tinged with sadness and pain? What has cursed me so? And why must I continue to breathe out into this terrible world?

Masters Corrigan had taken a team to California, a place so filled with light and beauty. They were there to hunt something inside of a famous muggle home. When they had returned, Mistress Zara and Mistress Velvet were both encased in a feeling I was all too familiar with; loss. The creature they chased was a Sluagh, a subordinate of the Wild Hunt. Sarah Winchester was too afraid to die, too afraid of the spirits of those her husbands guns killed and so she made a pact. She made a deal to become this foul creature to starve off death. The team managed to end her miserably long life but at the cost of a child’s. With what I know of these creatures, this was the only possible way to end it but it has left them shaken, changed. Mistress Arminstance; bless her. She has decided to leave us, feeling as though this world was too dark for the light to shine. She may have used a confundus on a muggle as I understand she now works for a law firm.

The Texas mission was also successful. Clara Crane had been alive in the nineteenth century, she was young and foolish so of course she fell in love. She have birth to a child but the child did not live to see its fifth birthday. Distraught, she did the only thing she thought she could, she tried to revive it with magic. Even after death, Clara continued to murder children in hopes of using their parts to reborn her spawn. And it worked, sadly too well. She had created an Infantata, a being of nothing but pure bloodlust. Master Twycross lead his team deep into the dark, they did not all make it out. Sadly Master Felix is missing, we do not know where he is though is lack of portrait in the memorium leads me to believe he is still alive somewhere. Masters Athos and Kieran both survived, as did Miss DeVito and Miss Fuji. They would not say what happened in those mines, only that the creature was gone.

Upon their return, Master Stone was approached by the Ministry to undertake a long term job in devising new protections for the muggle world, he accepted and decided to take Master Sebastian with him. I hope they are well and that they stay away. This place will never be safe.

I fear now that more will be sent to replace those that are gone.  I fear now, that more lambs are being sent to slaughter. I fear this crushing wave of terror that washes over me. I fear the girl that haunts my waking day.

The pansy at my feet doth the same tale repeat. Whither is fled the visionary gleam? Where is it now, the glory and the dream?

Forever yours”[/i]

As a tear dropped upon the parchment, the Caretaker looked up from his letter and saw the face of Emory staring back at him. [color=silver]”Who do you write those letters to my friend?”[/color] The Welshman asked.

With his glossy eyes brimming with tears, the creature looked to his master and breathed a tortured sigh. [b]”I know not”[/b] He whimpered. [b]”I know not for whom I write or to whom. My mind will not let me see”[/b][/center]
