Case 0 - The Corbitt House - Faversham Journal

 A heavily damaged and aged document. Hand writing is scrawled and difficult to read in many places. 

 

"... without sufficient stomach for the task at hand JD, blackguard traitor, will fail flailing to gaze beyond the spheres for power so near at hand.

... all is within my grasp ... even revenge ... he plays lord among mere cattle, those that serve no role than to sustain our life ... 

... laughable conjecture that disturbing the minds of cattle could weaken the boundaries between the spheres. JD fumbles at the latch helplessly. I choose to imbue myself with strength undying … beyond the perils of life.

… and am beyond harm. Those beneath me will sustain me. 

... how much knowledge did I, in good faith, pass to the witless traitor ... he has no strength for grasping what must be done ... his feeble Royal halls of bricks will crumble as I watch unhindered by the passing time ...

… suffering minds - no matter how prolonged - will not weaken the boundaries of the spheres, ... broken minds may glimpse beyond the door but only the strong can harness the power of the gate and its keeper or those who walk beyond ... I have just the means to constrain those who walk between ... and now the body to stride beyond ... 

... I will watch JD's lauded name tarnish, in what will seem like passing seconds to me ... I have rendered time a mute child ... the name of Faversham will be recalled …

... the world  will not yield to him as it will to me by my force of will as I drink deep from the living city ... "

Case 2 - The Royal Hospital

Image
The Royal Newcastle Hospital is one of the chief sources of pride in this community. An extensive new building to serve the needs of the growing town. It has also attracted some of the foremost medical minds in the state and is forging a name for innovation.  It is exactly the place those with injury or recovering from harrowing experiences require. Anyone would be fortunate indeed if, in need of care, respite could be found within its walls.  Of course, the excellent location of care for the psychological needs of the city is only a block away. The Royal retains a strong connection to this place of tranquility in the midst of the busy city.  Both the hospital and sanitorium will miss the pioneering, tireless and generous labour of the late Dr Jonathan Dee McCall. This physician did much to further the health of the inhabitants of Newcastle. All hope he will soon be replaced.
