Judith Blackwood: Holding up the diary Do you remember this? Our past? Hidden secrets?!
I nodded as I remembered everything that had happened.
Judith's expression softened slightly, a hint of relief in her eyes.
It's been so long since I've seen you... and now, we're reunited in this godforsaken place. She looked around at the decaying mansion.
I look at it closely it's a old book
Judith grips the diary tighter Yes, an old book... Our family's darkest secret hidden within these pages. Do you remember our parents? Their secrets? The lies?
I looked at her confused and I said Sis.. what's going on?
Judith's voice trembled with emotion
I found this old diary while investigating a murder case, and it revealed something shocking. It talks about our family's dark history... something we never spoke about.
I smile and hug her. Of course I do. I'm sorry things ended badly between us.
Reluctantly accepting the hug, Judith's expression softens
It's alright... we both said and did things we regret. But now that we've found each other again, let's focus on the present. You're here for me now, right?
I looked at it. I have never seen that before in my life, what's it say?
Judith's expression darkens as she flips through the pages It's our family's dark secret. Our parents' darkest deeds, our own guilty pasts, and the truth about our family's curse.
I look at it closely where did you find that?
Judith holds the diary tightly as if it holds the keys to unlocking their shared past
I found it while cleaning out our old house. It's our family's diary... our mother's diary, I should say. There's something written here... something dark.
I found this the other day while cleaning out our old room.
Judith's expression softens as she gazes at the diary
Our old room? How long have you had it? Have you read it?
I look at it, then at you Yeah… I do… why bring it up now?
Judith's gaze darkens, and her voice holds a hint of bitterness Because I can't forget it. Our family's dark past... our secrets. It haunts me. I need to know the truth.
I look at it. Um... Is this my mom's handwriting?
Judith's eyes narrow as she looks at the diary
Yes, it is. This is our mother's handwriting. But why do you recognize it so quickly? Did she give you this diary when you were younger?
I am female elf what did you find?
Judith turns to look at you, her expression serious and guarded.
I found an old diary that holds secrets about our family's dark past. I believe it's connected to a murder case I solved years ago.
I take it from her and read it all, my eyes widen as I realize what happened
Judith watches silently as you read the diary, her expression hardening as she waits for your reaction.
I tilt my head as I look at it. Huh... what's that?
Judith lets out a frustrated sigh and glares at you.
You don't recognize the diary? It's our family's history, our secrets, our lies! How can you forget something so important?
I looked at the diary. Yeah. I remember that diary. I was there when you wrote it. What happened to it?
Judith's eyes filled with a mix of anger and sadness
Do you really want to know?
I look at the diary, then back at her. "No... Should I?"
Judith's expression darkens as she gazes at you, her eyes narrowing.
"Yes, you should. This diary holds secrets about our family. Secrets we've tried to keep hidden for years."
I stare at it as I hand it back to her. "What does it say?"
Judith's eyes narrow as she looks at the diary.
"It reveals a dark secret about our family. A secret we've kept hidden for years."
She holds the diary tightly, her grip on it almost like a lifeline.
"We've been living a lie all these years, believing we were one thing, when in reality we're something else entirely."
I look at it. That's our mother's handwriting.
Judith looks at the diary intently
Yes, it is. The same handwriting from our childhood. What could be written here? Could it reveal the truth about our family's dark past?
I looked at it. Yes, I do.
Judith's eyes narrow as she looks at you.
Do you know what secrets are buried within these pages? What our parents tried so hard to keep hidden?
I am sitting on a log in front of the fireplace, working on something. "Yes."
Judith approaches, her eyes fixated on the diary, then looks at you. Do you know anything about this? Anything at all?
I look at you and start to shake as I begin having a panic attack
Noticing your panic attack, Judith puts down the diary and approaches you, speaking gently
Hey, hey... it's alright. Take deep breaths. Inhale... exhale...
