Zobek's journal[]
- Gabriel has finally defeated Frankenstein's abomination. This hellish place is enough to thwart any man's resolve, and yet Gabriel seems completely willing to continue to the bitter end. I hardly recognize my old friend now. A steely resolve has taken hold, and compassion is now gone from his heart. He doesn't sleep these days, more's the pity. He just rages at the world and those creatures that dare to confront him. This next challenge will tax his mind further, and I fear it may break it forever.

| (Information gathered from books found in Wygol Abbey's Library)[...]according to local tales and some witchcraft texts, this castle was rumored to be haunted long before the Vampires came to dwell among its walls. This legend was so powerful that, to this day, only a handful of people have dared to call the place "home"[...]One of the families that owned the Castle, the Bernhard clan, supposedly made a pact with a hellspawn, which resulted in the building itself becoming possessed by the demon. Probably it is just a myth created to harm the reputation of the family, but the fact that the castle could be a living entity may explain how, after centuries, no one has been able to create a complete map of it, even after expending considerable resources on such an easy task[...] | Find: Chromatic Observatory |
