It has come to my attention that there is some force currently at work that appears to be able to assert influence over some of our residents here. Specifically, it seems to instill a far greater tendency towards aggression then usual. Considering I have only been here a month, aside from the post office I have only heard of some of the "games" this town appears to play on its inhabitants.

I'm wondering, does anyone believe this might be another action initiated by the town? Has their been a precedent of the town manipulating emotions before, or of it only affecting a select few rather then all present? Has anyone else noticed this increase in aggression, or have I, perhaps, given in to man's tendency to....over-think, I believe, is the statement.

It can't be one of our own doing this, of course. I'd be surprised if anyone had that much power here. And if they did, I would be surprised if they were honestly foolish enough to inflict it upon people with no rhyme or reason.

Certainly none of us here are that foolish, are we?

[Later on, you can also find Wilhelm at the library. While it's technically his job, he appears to be perusing the books in an attempt to find something useful he may have overlooked, though he clearly finds this a hopeless endeavor. So maybe he's just slacking off.

Feel free to bother him regardless.]

Or if you are one who doesn't die.

But if you can't die, how can you be sure what the afterlife is like?

Who better to guard and assure the continuation of its function?

And to call the Shore the afterlife would be misleading. It's simply the individual conscious being reintegrated into the whole upon death. There is no "afterlife" proper.

Then what...No. Never mind. Don't answer that. I've never been good with things like this. Shore? Cool.

I find it a simpler system then most would force death to be.

Yeah I guess so. It's kinda nice to look forward to then some, that's for sure.

It is natural for men to fear their mortality, which is most likely why they had to make the end of it seem so monstrous in so many ways.

Maybe. I dunno, I never really thought about it like that.

[Have some slightly nervous laughter] As little as possible. Don't really go with any sorta strict belief anymore. [Slight lies, but he thinks it's true]
