I'm also pleased to report that Tom Hayes finally escaped his unfortunate capture by the insolent whelps at Lazarus Redux. He's returned to the fold, but something's changed. He seems... distant.
8.9.07 - Once More Unto the Breach - They captured one of our own, the one that was once Tom Hayes. It unsettles me that he can't be contacted. Whatever they did to him has hidden him from our thoughts. Although we already learned all that we needed from him, it would still be a shame to lose him. Tom made a good Spectre.
Bishop is beginning to gather support in his campaign against them. He already recruited a host of Her spawn and will soon reveal his intentions. Should the Orpheus' ghosts defeat Bishop, I will believe their worth proven. I will deliver your message and recruit them under your banner.
8.2.07 - The Missionary Workings of Uriah Bishop - The architect responsible for so many deaths is discovered. Savoir to his misled flock, favored servant to Grandmother, and cunning adversary to the ghosts of Orpheus, Uriah Bishop's days in Her service are surely numbered. He will prove the ultimate test. Should the wraiths defeat Bishop, I will guide them toward the true enemy. Should the circle fail, I will find more allies for your cause and the best can often come from the unlikeliest of places.
7.26.07 - Dangerous Liaisons - Mother Mary sends an unlikely messenger to request a boon, a trusted ally requests the capture of the Spectre once known as Tom Hayes, witnesses spy further cooperation between our kind and Bishop's thrall, and a brother, believed entirely lost to Oblivion, demonstrates the possibility of dissention within our ranks.
These new wraiths are finally discovering that the dead retain all the same intricate and convoluted politics of the Quick. Deals are made, alliances are broken, and lives are traded just as cheaply as they are among those still waiting to die. Watching the Orpheus ghosts these next few weeks should enlighten us to their willingness to work with, or at least around, our kind.
7.19.07 - Heaven's Spear - Borrowing the eyes and ears of your enemies, I continued to watch as the living scuttle about uselessly, desperately trying to deal with a threat they cannot possibly understand. The Orpheus ghosts, and those that are yet too stupid or too stubborn to die, continue to impress. Those under the banner of Lazarus fought a difficult battle against Her forces while the former circle of the Onceborn known as Sean combed the stray tower like so many vultures.
So much trouble over a broken battlement... Still, their puzzled ignorance is rather entertaining.
7.12.07 - Ghost-Quake - Devastation on a scale not seen since the Shadow Storm. The ignorant dead and the clueless living struggle for meaning and purpose, even as Her children revel in the chaos and destruction. This is but a sign of the true horror to come. The stormwall will only weaken as She approaches and more of Her fury will seep into this world. She is noticably weak in the Shadowlands and our influence can be applied when necessary. I do not know how long this will remain true.
I secured several bodies for your cause, but failed to secure several more. The resourcefulness of these new ghosts is truly impressive and I will do better to take caution in the future. Every day spent observing and gathering knowledge is one day closer to securing their favor.
