Attire Haunted Masquerade
29 ottobre dellanno del Signore 1779
Please Lord watch over our home. Last night there was a tremendous storm which drove us all into shelter. The heavens opened up. Gales blew like none seen before in these parts. During the storm there was a tremendous clap of thunder followed by screams down by the dangerous rocks at the foot of the Villa. By the time we reached the spot all was silent and the clouds parted for the full moon. Before us lay the wreak of a sailing ship but one not seen before. It is the spirit of a ship crashed against our shores. And whoever was aboard has left ship or drowned at sea. But it is now empty. But there is a dreadful feeling of something on the island.
Since this sinister event many frightening visions have been seen on the island. Too hellish to be named. I have sent as many as I can of the citizens of Melioria aboard my ship the Fire Sprint and sent them toward the safety of the mainland.
The Villa sits empty of life decorated for the Danza Macabra today at 2:30 but I wonder who or what will attend.

With the blessings of God my ships have returned safely through what my men say were the worst seas they have seen. A storm so great and lumbering that it bares truth to the old tales of the allegiance between Titans and Aegaeon. They barely made it to safe harbour. This confirms my fears. Death comes on an ebb tide and we have lost many to Heaven this week for the tides of Melioria ebbed fiercely away. I thought at first was just a seasonal Borasco but from the look of the skies today something fearful is coming.
