A New Pestilence

article

This journal is found on the first floor of the library. the chicken referred to in the note is Putrilius.

The following text is transcribed from the Journal.

Can't focus in my quarters. There's three of us in there. Too crowded. I can string thoughts together here. Not many - a few gems on a necklace.

We are afflicted by not one, but two diseases. They tussle, fighting. A cure needs to kill them both.

I thought, maybe, if I poison one - the weaker one - then the other will eat it. Wither. Die.

I think I know where the weak one resides. I hear it whisper in my left ear. I will dropper the toxin there. Let it feed. Yum. Let the toxin spread.

Shush! The chicken and the master come again. I must look busy.

Busy busy busy busy busy.
