Something is wrong.
It's been a few weeks since the cultists arrived and now all of a sudden they are apparently vanishing from the streets. The cultists themselves are the one reporting this and whenever I skim the minds of those I see they all don't seem to know anything about what's going on, so this isn't planned internally as some sort of stunt or anything. Someone foreign to their group is doing this.
Admittedly I don't really care much about them though. I only care about Lisica, Felix, and my friends. I asked Felix what he thought and I just got a shrug so that was expected. We're kids in the end, I don't think we could help these guys much anyways. Gencer was stoic and didn't care much about it but he did seem on guard at least for Kidara who was much more concerned and so was June. I overheard them talking when I went to visit Lisica and she says there's strange spikes of magic she can sense anywhere in the city at random times but mostly during the night. The next day another cultist would be missing. She can only tell that these magical spikes are people probably being teleported somewhere. For the most part locals haven't gone missing but that only shifts most of the suspicion towards the locals themselves.
That has me worried, who knows how long it'd be until whoever this person or group of people were before they'd start taking locals too. I was worried, so I've been thinking of staying up and watching over my friends. With my powers I'd totally be able to fool them into thinking I'm at home or something so it'd be super easy.

Day 1 of Janette's super secret stakeout!
I brought a whole lot of snacks and drinks and my journal, which is gonna double as a suspicious person log too!
I'll be going from my house, to my friend's house, and then the park too I guess since a lot of the cultists hang out there for their sermons. I dunno if whoever this kidnapper has to be dumb enough to do that but I'm willing to think so.
So here we go!
Suspicious Person Bald guy with a red shirt. Walking alone. Ugly purple jacket. Walked by VV's house.
Braid Woman with yellow shirt. Running around this late at night in the cold...weirdo. Spotted going across the street from VV's house.
Brown hair guy and pale skin guy. Hair was super long and wavy and the pale skinned guy had a bunch of rings on his fingers. They were both cultists and were looking up at the houses they walked by, talking about how great it'd be to have a dragon perched on top of them. Idiots but I'll keep them in mind. Spotted by Julia's house.
Hobo. She looked really raggedy and old, she was taking her time walking by the house I was hiding at and looked at a few of the houses. THEN she pulled out some weird thing that I'm pretty sure was an illegal substance or something and just smoked it right there and blew it at Julia's house! Disrespectful and illegal, but I'm not a cop so I'm just gonna ignore it.
Pair of joggers in the park. Total weirdos. Another jogger. What's with everybody not wearing anything for the cold when they go for a run?
A couple of cultists in the park setting up for tomorrow's sermon. They didn't bring anything that looked out of the ordinary. Just some wood to set up the platform to stand on and that's it.
Guy walking his dog. The guy looked fine, but that dog was too suspiciously cute and fluffy. I want one of my own to interrogate with petting and hugging. Walked by Ryan's place. I think he has a dog too...
A police officer walked by, a dogman. I think he almost sniffed me out but I covered myself in a psychic bubble to hide my presence and he left, close call.
Another pair of culti sts walking alo ne they just talked about dra gons and stuff. I'm getting tired now. I'll give it another 30 minutes and I'll call it a night.
Hobo. I think it's the same one from earlier, still wal king around? I guess shes (a long diagonal line goes down the rest of the page)

I fell asleep and came down with a fever...I guess I'm retiring early.
There's drool frozen into the pages now! Argh!

I've decided to get a new book, the old one had all of the later pages soaked through and it would've gotten on my nerves. So a few days after the incident I am not recovering from my fever and able to do a good day's work.
Ever since I lost my beastman characteristics I thought I gained the full power of my psychic abilities at the cost of having a harder time controlling them, but it doesn't seem like that is the case. While I was sick, my power would act on its own but it seems only while I was asleep. Lisica says that when I fell asleep things in and near my room would begin to warp and twist into new things like trees or water. It looks like I was either creating a really strong illusion you could feel, or I was really warping reality around me. The moment I woke up everything would snap back to normal as if nothing happened, though there would still be a bit of feedback coming to me because of all the psychic energy in the room.
Worse still, I once had a nightmare about being in a castle. My power manifested the room like a long gaudy hallway, and I was being chased by something. Lisica and Felix came by to check on me since they heard me in my sleep but were actually stopped by a pair of guards at the door. I don't really understand why or how these guards were made, but the guards weren't solid, so they just pushed through. They said something snake-like with legs and wings was hunched over me, threatening to bite down on me. So Felix hurried over and pulled me close to protect me and I guess that woke me up since everything vanished when I opened my eyes. All I personally remember is something like...Alice in Wonderland. I guess that thing might have been a jabberwocky or something?
Either way, it was awful but thankfully the last time it happened.
So i guess my power still has some depth to it but only when my mind is really left to its own devices, like an intense dream or something. That's sort of scary though, so I'm gonna make sure I avoid eating sweets before bed now... I wonder why it was a castle?
Anyways, regarding the suspicious persons list, the only people I saw multiple times were cultists and that hobo. There isn't anything super suspicious about either of them, though...
