[QUOTE="Carlo-One, post: 8545188, member: 7015827"] [B]Interlude from "C"[/B] [I]As instructed by my superiors, I have spent much of the past tenday meditating, having finished the three volumes of the chronicles that were provided to me. Yet my thoughts have been bothered by many things, not least the incomplete nature of the story before me. My predecessor as senior initiate, "R", whose acerbic yet insightful comments have accompanied me for many a day, clearly had signaled in his own annotations that he had foreknowledge of additional events yet to come. In approaching this final task put to those of us who wish to achieve the rank of master, he apparently had - for whatever reason - chosen to read through the full chronicles first, before going back to provide his own observations in the margin.
