IMPORTANT: I need someone with medical training to meet me at the shoreline near the river. I've found what looks to be my own dead body.

Please hurry.

[Attached is a photo, lit dimly by his lantern, of what does indeed look like his recognizeable corpse floating in the water, hooked through the cheek and attached to a discarded fishing pole lying some feet away on the pebbles.

This is of course in reference to this exploration thread.]

[Damn.]

I don't suppose anyone managed to take a sample.

[callada]

Didn't think of it. Seemed like it all wanted to rejoin itself after. My clothes aren't even wet.

Might be worth it if someone else tries to do some fishing.

[pearlstrings]

Do you think it's possible that a spirit was responsible?

Have they been known to change forms like this before?

[callada]

Not that I've seen, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. It seemed alive enough to be one. Strangest one yet, if so.

[pearlstrings]

[Fascinating.]

I see.


Thank you for indulging me. I'm sure it was a very unsettling experience.
