Title: Medical Journals, Volume 3

Author: Dr. Greg Ashcroft

Her lifeless, and bloodless form was found, hanging near decapitated in the front hall of the House. The King has issued a bounty on the Fallen Son of Novelle's Head. I can't help but feel the least bit responsible.

Book 21, Part 10,

After a nation-wide search, the young Garet Novelle has been found. Cradled in the arms of his dead-great-great-gra ndmother at her funeral, apparently abandoned by the monster that was his father. I do hope the child is not scarred emotionally, but he is but a few years old now, and not too aware of the turn of recent events.

Book 22, Part 8,

As I grow steadily older, my life grows more hectic. Another year past, another startling discovery. I have found Jenson Novelle. Or what remains of him. I was heading steadily northward through the alleyways of Britain one eve, when I spotted a hunched over figure, attacking some homeless lady. I crept closer, to see what might be happening, when the attacker spun about and leaped at me. I cringed in fear, and let mine last thoughts be of the happiness I brought people, when mine assailant did stop in mid air. Apparently, the lag demon I had fought against for so long, had saved my life. Atleast briefly. For I too was caught. But slowly, my body functions quickened, and in a burst of adrenaline, I shot forth, out from beneath the beast that used to be Jenson Novelle's shadow. I happened to have a prototype for my new 'Anti-Lag' elixir, which I immediately quaffed, it being my last hope. Lo and behold, I could run. I hadn't felt so invigorated in years. While the While the creature of the night sat suspended in mid-air. I knew I should have tried to help him, or the homeless woman bleeding to death at the moment, but instead I ran off to safety. I still suffer from nightmares, but apparently, my prototype was a success. I am completely immune to the affects of the nefarious and troublesome 'Lag Deamon'.

Book 22, Part 14,

So, Jenson Novelle was cured by my potion from so long ago. But he is now a vampire. A creature of the night. I do wonder if any of my elixirs will ever not have a negative side effect. For while I am presently free from the effects of 'Lag', I am completely unable to recall the formula. And now Aisleigh has gone somewhat mad. Her sister, Julia, has taken the children in, and does show much signs of love for them, but I fear they cannot live here. I, still indebted to their family, even more so due to what Jenson did, have been asked to take them to an undisclosed location. There they shall grow up, free, and Julia and Kennith shall start their new lives, as artisans and tinkers. So, tomorrow morning, myself, Julia, Kennith her husband, and the two toddlers head off for the Crossroads, and from there...

Book 30, Part 10,

It has been half a year since I have left Britain. I have not written the tale of what occurred at the Crossroads, that fateful day, but old nightmares once again taunt me, and I fear Jenson Novelle is still haunting these, parts. So I write. We left Britain, heading towards the Crossroads, and then to Vesper, for a ship which would take us to Occlo. But we never made it. At the Crossroads, we were set upon by a band of orcs, and orc Lords. I fought as bravely as I could, as did Kennith, while the children and Julia escaped, but alas...

I fear Kennith is dead. He was taken, kicking and screaming into the fray, and I would have jumped into it to save him, when I saw young Garet run up to save his father. I grabbed the boy, and proceeded to run. I searched for his new mother, but to no avail.

Finally, we were chased off by some more orcs, and headed to Minoc. An old friend of mine, Cassius Jax, took us in, while I searched for the boy's mother and sister. Finally, the nightmares started again, and I knew Jenson was close. I have left Garet in the Jaxes' care, knowing they always wanted children of their own, but never could have them.

Book 31, Part 1,

I was walking to mine home in the hills near Lake Blackthorn, when I noticed I was being followed. I quickly spun about and drew forth a small medallion hung around my neck, but not before the creature behind me put a massive hand around my neck. I saw what had once been Jenson Novelle, but was now a monster. His long, curved fangs glistened in the moonlight, and his eyes, now yellow, like a cat's, glimmered with hunger. He asked me where his children were, screamed at me to tell him, and even reduced himself to begging, but I held true to my word to protect that family. Finally, the vampire who was once Jenson Novelle, broke down into tears and allowed my timely escape. It's been a week, and the nightmares have stopped, so I assume he has left me alone. For the time being.
