Look into my eyes
Greetings! I am the Performer, one of the Masks of our highly respected Director of the Theater, Mark the Immortal. Unfortunately, our esteemed puppeteer failed censorship, so, while he is absent, I will be hosting the show! And although I am just one of many Performers and have neither a name nor a history, I will provide you with an incredible performance! A performance about the events in the city. Incredible in its accuracy, truthfulness, and impartiality!
We are not just actors. Wherever something bad has happened, you will see us. Silently guarding the cursed places, preventing passage to where it is not yet possible to go. God forbid you return home and see a person in a dirty cloak and with a sinister raven mask on his head at your door.
Soon we will be everywhere.
To give shape to this sad picture, I am writing these notes. But, let's not talk about sad things. I am just an extra in this world; the real power lies with the true heroes, who are among you, dear readers. So, all of this may not even happen! Although, who am I kidding... Some evil cannot be found, cannot be deceived. It is here. And most likely, it is also reading these lines right now. Yes, yes, it's YOU.
...
The introduction is over. And now I take a pen with a different font and raise the curtain.
"Some areas of the city are best avoided at night... However, Evil Lizard apparently didn't know this; he only recently arrived. Although the street he was walking on seemed completely empty, death was inexorably approaching him. Closer to morning, the townspeople found Evil Lizard lying motionless on the road. Strangely, there were no wounds on his body. The suitcase with medicines that he usually carried was gone, most likely stolen by marauders."
He was relatively lucky. I stumbled upon a poor fellow this morning, from whom a good half of the organs had been cut out. Could it be that a maniac has appeared in this backwater town?
"Naturally, after such events, the locals were agitated. Various strange rumors appeared about the pranks of steppe spirits, and some used this to their advantage. So, someone superstitious agreed to conduct a cleansing session, and, strangely enough, he actually felt better afterward."
Self-suggestion, as it is.
"The military, which recently settled in the city, also reacted to the latest events. Rumor has it that they caught someone and are now keeping him under surveillance."
Here are the downsides of the lack of clear authority in the city. The military has only just arrived, and they are already doing as they please...
