To Whom It May Concern:

I'll beg those reading to pardon the amount of space I've taken for this relatively inconsequential concern, but a nurse informed me upon inquiry that this bulletin board is the place to seek information regarding missing persons; as such, I'd no choice but to post here, and hope for the best.

I am seeking information regarding the whereabouts of a boy little more than thirteen years of age.  He has a slender (or, as some would say, rather frail) frame, blue eyes, and pale white skin.  His most extraordinary feature is likely to be the color of his hair: an unusual tint of bluish-gray.  He may or may not have covered his right eye.

To the ladies and gentlemen here inclined towards acts of kindness, you would have my infinite gratitude for any assistance you could offer that may bring me to this person's side.  He is my lord and master, after all, and though I have full faith in his abilities, it is my duty as a butler to be present for him always during times of need.

Gratefully yours,
A Humble Butler.

I find that very hard to believe. Do you have any proof to back that up?

[a few hesistant blots] The monsters here try eat people, they don't torture them. He had bruises on his neck like he'd been choked, all over the one side of his face, and he'd been stabbed. A lot. And they did worse to his friend last night.

He said something about having a fight with Grell before this all happened, then the next day he's in a wheelchair. He didn't do it alone either, some guy named Luxord helped.

Even if you don't believe me, just be careful around him, okay? I know it's hard to prove with just a bunch of notes, but I wouldn't say anything if I didn't think it was true. I'm sor

If I understand you correctly, you are basing your opinion upon the words of another, and not your own personal experience?

I know the guy it happened to, and I know he wouldn't lie about something like that. I haven't met Grell or Luxord.

[More blots] He's...a lot of bad things have happened to him in the past few days, so if you want to ask him about it, you should wait. Like you said, I'm only hearing this second-hand, but someone is torturing him. Even if it's not Grell, then it's someone else, and they have to be stopped.

I agree that if he's being tortured it needs to stop. No one should suffer such horrors. That being said, accusing someone based upon hearsay, even if it is a friend you believe, isn't the smartest thing to do. Just as you want to defend your friend, the friends of the one you accuse wish to defend him.

Please, don't believe me unsympathetic, because I am. I just [inkblot] I've seen too many people's lives ruined because of something someone else said that wasn't completely true.

I don't think you're unsympathetic, and I get where you're coming from. I've seen the exact same thing happen before, too.

If I ever do meet them, I promise I'll talk to them first. But if I catch either of them hanging around our his room again, they better have a really good reason for being there.

Please just...be careful.

I always am. Thank you for your warning and thank you for understanding my point of view.

Thank you, too.
