[three separate notes, posted in different places on the board]

[nobleman]

I had a dream last night where no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get to where I was going. Did anyone else go through this? If so, did you end up anywhere interesting?

*

I'm not sure how many people are sick now, but would it be possible to have those of you who still aren't feeling well respond here so we can keep track of that? I'd like to offer help where I can, but I can't do that unless I know who I'm helping. You don't have to sign your name for now, if you'd rather not.

Does anyone know what happened to Locke? He's my roommate, and I haven't seen him in the past day or so.

[unsigned, to the first note]

[knightspirit]

Mine was like that too. You could call it an... "out of this world" experience?

[nobleman]

I didn't go that far, but I've heard of it happening before.

[knightspirit]

I see. Have you heard of things appearing in places like that where they shouldn't be? Monsters, for instance.

[nobleman]

Places they shouldn't be? Like where?

[the writing is ragged and tired]

[age_of_kings]

Locke is...no longer with us.

I'm so sorry.

[nobleman]

I was worried that was the case. I didn't know him that well, but I'm still sorry to hear that. Do you know what happened?

[age_of_kings]

He...succumbed to the illness.

There was...there was nothing else...

[nobleman]

I thought it might be that. I'm so sorry. Thank you for answering.

[to the first note]

[his_legacy]

I did, as well. As someone else mentioned, at one point it was certainly an "out of this world" experience.

Are dreams such as these common? Or was last night an isolated experience for you?

[nobleman]

I've only had a dream like this once before.

[his_legacy]

Interesting... Thank you.

[redcladidealist]

Re: [first note]

[nobleman]

You don't really get how this board works, do you?

[redcladidealist]

huh?

you just pin notes to people on it right? that's not hard

[nobleman]

I don't mean like that...

[the rest of the note is folded up and has to be opened]

If you aren't careful with how you word things, the nurses will take stuff down.

[madeinthehrl]

You're not the only one who's had this dream. As someone said, we've had it before, too, but that was a few weeks ago.

[nobleman]

I remember it. I was just curious to know how far people ended up going.

[madeinthehrl]

I dreamed we ended up in a lake, if that helps. Outside the institute.

[nobleman]

In my dream, we ended up all the way in Doyleton...

[in response to the first two notes; unsigned but undisguised for both]

[dividedby]

I ended up in Doyleton, but only for a little while.

*

Maybe it was just me, but it seems the 'extra help' they handed out last night might have spread that illness more than prevent it.

[nobleman]

I ended up there too. It was pretty strange waking up here again after a dream like that.

*

Really? This is the first I've heard of it. What happened?

[strikeout illegible]

[dividedby]

Yeah. It didn't matter if I tried windows instead of doors, I still got lost anyway. Judging from other responses here, this has happened before?

*

I spent the entire night trying not t dreamed that I wanted to eat my friend, as if I wasn't fully in control of myself. I expected to wake up still feeling ill, but for some reason I feel fine now...

[nobleman]

Yeah, some of us had a dream like this once before. It was a while ago.

*

Wanting to eat your friend? [a few scratches out notes]

Did you have a craving for his flesh, specifically?

[his fancy handwriting, though it's extremely wobbly]

[girlsandgadgets]

I'll inform you about Locke next time I see you. I was not aware he was your roommate.

- Edgar

[nobleman]

He only became my roommate a few nights ago, so I can't say that I know him well. But I'd like to hear about it, when we get the chance. Thanks, Edgar.
