Blackwater 2 continues... 

At 3:00pm

We all return to the professor's house.

Jack Rutherford - Also an antiquarian, has recently returned from Egypt.

George - is an ex war mechanic and he helps the professor with water and wood supplies.

The Professor speaks some more: It turns out that the box is possessed by some demon that could control a man. Dr Banks is sceptical.

The professor goes on to say the box should be destroyed and banished from this realm.

At 3:04pm

Jack and another man stand outside the house.

Me and the Emily's begin to decipher the raider's parchment. It turns out to read:

"If separated during the raid meet at four by the far fir near the exit to the land."

Marcus Rath - is interested in religious writings such as Greek and Latin. He was raised by a priest in Africa.

We go outside into the woods again to try and stifle the raiders' plans. All we find is a man named Cuthbert but nothing more sinister. He thinks I'm a digger! He is here for a weekend away!?!

(paper at this stage is slightly torn with smeers of mud, but reads:)

Prof Arnold Keifer - an archaeologist, who is the head of the prehistoric department at the British Museum.

On the way back to the Professor's house we find some raiders, most of them are shot and one is taken hostage. Another parchment is also found. Hostage Raider quotes:

"The master will take you" and "We will destroy you"

When we finally get back to the house, the hostage escapes with a fight.

The Emily's and I precede to decipher the new parchment before dinner. The raiders' master is known as the Crawling Chaos. They want artefacts to perform a ritual to release their master into this world. (Should I go into science fiction?)

We have details of the ritual and how to perform it, but why would we want to? (Dinner was good)

Other people seem to be going out for the kill.

I am not certain this is the correct way to continue proceedings, I am hear to get a story after all!

Alexander Griffin - another archaeologist, is sat at the kitchen table, holding onto the translations of the ritual, he is examining other information found within the 12^th century tome.

9:15pm

George fixes my night light. I feel safer now but Jack and Emily have retired to their room, both looking very uncomfortable, I am worried if they are ok or not.

Meanwhile Alexander decrypts more papers from the tome.

Frederic - a farmer's hand, helping the cook, is from the local village, Mary is his mother, she was widowed in the war.

Matthew - he is Frederic's brother, have been in the village nearby all their lives. Recently their sheep have escaped and they have been arguing with the neighbours.
