The cries of the earth did ring in mine ears today, their origin the Orbital Spire if my senses deceive me not. For such an uproar to come thence, in this world so full of Raptures, doth import but one thing; there is a change upon the Raptures. ... This portends naught but ill. My mind thus whispers me: I needs must see it with mine own eyes. I shall make for the Orbital Spire. I leave this record for fear my NIMPH should take corruption. May that this report never be heard save from my NIMPH.

Midst my journey to the Orbital Spire, I beheld strange Raptures, unlike all others seen before; fashioned, as it were, in the image of the human body, or rather the parts thereof. I had thought to find Raptures altered in part, but changed to a greater degree they could not have been. Drawing nearer the Orbital Spire, I felt the earth tremble beneath my feet. What change could be in motion? What stirreth so? Of the many replicas who did enter the Orbital Spire, there have been no tidings. I can do naught but pray they are well.

Not long ere the Orbital Spire cometh in view. The earth's cries and rumblings slowly wane; whether for good or ill, I know not. A shadowy liquid as such I have never seen doth infest this place, but I guess it to be Caliginous Material. That very Caliginous Material doth continue forward, mayhap pointing the way to the Orbital Spire. ... I must needs make haste.

What foul abomination is this! The Orbital Spire... covered in Caliginous Material, as though to fashion some new thing. And underneath it all... surely the thing lies there. I must devise a mean to let mine original self know... Hm? I am receiving a summons from the original. It proceedeth from... the Orbital Spire. ... This doth bode some event most ill. Here I shall hide this recording device. Should I meet a dire fate, may that the one hearing this will discern the perilous change that befalls this world.
