It is done... The castle and Dracula are gone. I had to break my promise to Albus in order to do it, but he saved me again. What little bit of him that was left is gone now...

My mission is complete and the Order is no more. I'm not sure what to do with myself now...

Are you good or bad at helping the people who are important to you?

[It's night, in what what looks to a children's playground, if the dome of knobbly yellow plastic with flat areas surrounded by railing dominating the picture is anything to go by. Masamori is sitting on what looks like a black rock right in front of the yellow dome, his right elbow resting on his leg and his left hand holding a cell phone to his ear. His eyes are closed and his expression is serious. You might also notice that he seems to have a staff topped with a circle and decorative blade hanging off his back.]

Now you'll be able to control your strength properly. Isn't that right?

[There's a pause, and Masamori opens his eyes, his face attentive. The camera begins to zoom out. And it turns out he's not sitting on a rock, but a very large arm. It probably belongs to the ayakashi towering behind the yellow dome, a creature that consists mostly of seven (formerly eight) arms and an angry looking face.]

Hmm? What?

[The ayakashi sticks its head closer.] Give it back. My arm. Give it.

[Masamori, however, seems to remain focused on his phone call.] Sorry, I couldn't hear that.

It is my pleasure and relief to tell you that my mystery of the wax-faced man has been solved. Of course, the method of solving said mystery was no simple feat. While visiting my friend, Lord Akeldama the other night, we were both kidnapped by the wax creature and some other men. It was soon revealed that the wax-faced man was in fact an homunculus; an automaton created by science. Our real abductors were the scientists of the Hypocras Club, a particularly mad group of men researching paranormals and the working of souls. Their...experiments were far from tasteful to say the least.

It seems that my kidnapping was quite ill-informed. It was actually Lord Akeldama they were after, and I simply happened to be around him quite often. Somehow the club also managed to kidnap Lord Maccon in full wolf form on the full moon. I would consider it an amazing task for the scientists, were I not so disgusted with them.

After much struggle in the Hypocras Club we were able to stop the automataon and the rest of the scientists within the club, and the...survivors were turned over to BUR. Lord Akeldama was in bad shape from the experiments performed upon him, but thankfully his group of drones are very clever and found us just in time to help him.

As you can imagine, all of those involved are quite tired.

Oh. And I suppose it would be only proper to mention that I am to be married before the summer.
